I love that tree house!! :D

Molly Smith

Something I have been thinking about was to have the requirement of at least one bad trait. In real life, not everyone is perfect. It would make it more realistic and offer cool storylines

Daniel Turner

you picked a Bernese mountain dog, the best fur baby, but will it give you the cute stare like in real life?

ChosenSquirrel

I like it, I mean with this art style where you guys are taking the character model looks good.

Lily Tindel

Oh wait- it’s underwear lmao

Lily Tindel

The doggo w the sock 🥺

Desirée Eriksson

Tbh, I wouldn't have minded the more simple character models. I'm more excited about the creative freedom that seems to live in every aspect of the game. Like, the lack of grid-snapping features. Which, don't get me wrong, is really good for certain games, and seeing as games like the original "The Sims" game was created a long time ago and it was basically how games were made in the 2000's. This game just breathes life into anew generation of game-making possibilities. The world of game development has changed so much and there is no reason to stick to old traditions since we don't need them anymore. The technology has literally allowed us to think outside the box, so why don't we do that more? I love Paralives and I'm here for all that this game means for the future of game dev.

Ok. I was just looking at the dog picture. Looks like they are "woohooing" and the dog is holding pantys and there is a bra hanging. LOL

I can’t wait to see more of the game I just started supporting this page been following paralives since day one li like What I am able to see I am not a builder but this games will make me wanna build more

Linn J.

I love these! Really enjoy seeing the process. Thanks for sharing your baby pictures, hihi.

Ох, ребята, вы просто потрясающие. Я искренне жду вашего проекта и болею за вас всем сердцем. Вы за рекордно короткое время заслужили себе место в моём маленьком сердце. Спасибо вам!

Lianna Babeli

It's amazing how much you guys have created in such a short amount of time, really! Development can be such a long road and the team is creating some amazing stuff. I can't wait to see what else you create and I know I will love Paralives! ^^ <3

ik its a long shot, but imagine if thats early concept sebastian and maggie :o

eloeden

you can tell that from the very beginning this game was made with a lot of love and dreams. Keep working darlings, you're doing amazing !! please know that we will all be there at the release to buy your game !!

I have no idea, but I think he'd have posted on here!

Luna

It looked so lovely :) Although I love the current state of the game, I find the simple shading just so charming

Has an official release date been announced? I heard rumors it has been

It’s would be very interesting if you could adjust relationships prior to game start. So you can create a more complex storylines between parents and children, dysfunctional families, etc.

tahirah

not gonna lie i LOVE LOVE LOVE the old concept para. i love low poly stuff and it just looks so much more unique to me. not to say the current design isn't beautiful though!!

Garst

Id be lying if i said i did not like the old style as much i like the new one! it had its own charm too! keep up the good work :D

I think it's not a problem when not everything is done at the release Alex. I can live with a waiting time for pets oder seasons for example, just give us the basics asap and then we can spend time in this beautiful game. =) Thank u for sharing.

TnT_Terry

Wow, thank you so much for sharing these Alex. Just goes to show what time can change ;) You guys are doing an amazing job, so take your time and continue to perfect your vision, we will gladly wait with much anticipation <3

Simsbabyforever

Love it thank you for sharing

Wow! It takes a lot of vulnerability to be so open and transparent that you show early sketches like this. Not that they’re bad at all, but it always takes courage to show work in progress and I’m just astounded by this level of openness and honesty!👏🏼

sofst

Just love it

Vodi Sim

It is Amazing ^^

Ilona

I loved the game since the initial reveal, the old pictures are really cute but wow, the improvements are stellar! It's amazing to see the progress.

thesimslover828

I love this game! Y'all are so great, I can't wait to play.

McCatto

huge difference! and i know the improvements will continue to come through!

PixelPerfect

But now we MUST have those swinging chairs and treehouse in the game 😭 It all looks so appealing ! I enjoyed this post , and can’t wait to see the dog revamped 😁

I almost feel like I prefer the original design; it has a lot of creativity to it. It's a bit more abstract so there's more room to project your own ideas onto the canvas

Love seeing these, and would love to see more early creation ideas. I almost prefer the simplicity of the beginning stuff but am also blown away at the skill and detail now. Keep up the great work!

Haley

Now I’m going to be looking forward to a tree house update in the games post release future 😂 complete with a poorly written “No boyz” or “no girlz” allowed sign ❤️ In all seriousness this game has grown by leaps and bounds you should all be so proud

I think it was so cute!!! I really like the simple look haha

literary_warrior

I think the old concept was still charming in its own right, but boy oh boy the changes from then and now is astounding. Keep up the good work guys! :)

Please do something (eventually) about Maggie's blush - she looks like she needs some aloe vera.

Wow, I am so proud to be helping this game happen

Amazing work!

Great ! :)

Diamond Nicole

So cute!! Doggo holding laundry in its mouth is such a doggo thing to do XD I love the treehouse! I can imagine seeing parakiddos running through the tree house while the teen or parent acts like a sea monster or something lmaoooo <3 you've come such a long way I'm so excited to see how far this game goes!!

Love how we can still see similarities to your old concept, but now it looks even more sophisticated - just how one would go about creating a painting; first you rough out the over-all feel and then you put in the details😃

Lovely <3

it's wild to see how far this game had developed and evolved !!

Tini

Thanks for sharing this, it already looked so good in the beginning but the improvement and the direction of this game is so mind blowing, I can't wait how the final game looks like and play with it <3 I'm excited if we can see dogs and cats soon as well as the child/toddler <3

Lavender

The original concept was so cute! I laughed at Doggo holding a underwear in his mouth lol I hope we get a functional tree house where the kiddos have sleepovers with their friends in them.

It's so cool that the dog has something in it's mouth like that! I can easily imagine a mischievous pet running around with a Para's top/socks/pants and them having to chase them down lol. Love seeing this!

Beautiful!! Love the creative ideas and thinking behind the scenes, the progress too! Those hanging chairs!!!!!! I love!!

Nyssa Joseph

It’s so amazing to see how much the game has already grown. Wow

Togepi01

A treehouse building function would be awesome though 😄

sofst

wowwww that's sooo cool ! Already the first version she was petting the dog ect

I'm sooo excited for this to come out!!! I love the style it's made in and all of the ideas being thrown around! Please take your time making this and don't feel the need to rush :)

Stacey Dunnachie

Are those early characters going to be updated and revealed later on? Because I kind of want to see more of them now!

Caitlin Panettieri

OMG!! I always wanted to make legit treehouses! 😱😭

xPami

The more post I see, the more I get excited 😭❤️

Eeeep, so excited!! Congratulations on your progress :)

Earl Grey

After being stressed out because of the recent nonsense of The Game that I won't mention the name, I feel overwhelming peace and joy while reading this post. I really appreciate your constant and honest communication with us. I can't wait for the day that I can play Pralives.

Tee W

I'm looking forward to this more and more

i hope you guy make it spicy and we can get robbed like how we used to in other games

Bengt Bagels

Thanks for sharing this. Tru it's not something new... but what I have really enjoyed is learning about the process... like it's inspiring... n i d k it's sort of cool to realize we are making your dreams come true... while you all are creating the game we always wanted to play. Even if this doesn't somehow pan out, quite the way, we all hope it will... the experiences Alex and his team have learned from this project has gotta be amazing. 《■ • ■ 》 I didnt realize until now... but i really want to take my Parafolk for a midnight camp out at the beach or by the lighthouse. Seems so cool. Lol. I dunno why treehouses made me think of campouts but they did!

Doggo is perfect, flawless, stunning, brilliant and transcends the sims all by himself. It is illegal to change him <3

Keleah Brown

Wow! Such a difference! Love it!

Sarah

Seeing how drastically this game has improved over the last year is wild. Love the look back! Keep it up!

Love it!! Keep up the great work :)

I like the way you think 💙 Keep it up! 🤓👌✌️

Wow! Amazing work!! Keep it up!!!❤️

So sweet! I can feel the love you guys put into this game!

Hehe, I believe the hearts are due to some sexy action going on behind the door. But yes, I found the doggy waiting with the clothing item to be a cute touch 👌🏽✨💕

Felicia

I love the original concepts as well! They are very charming! I can’t wait to meet Doggo soon! I love the image of him waiting outside the door with hearts! That would be lovely if pets can show their affection with a shower of hearts 💞

NHFoodie

TREEHOUSES 😍😍😍

Leo Munck

oh man, I hope those swing seats hanging from the treehouse will be added in some form! its cool to see how much the game has evolved from its original concepts :-)

Me encanta 👍🥰

EaselEar

Hmmm... the treehouse concept made me wonder, perhaps it would be a bit much to be able to construct a treehouse the way you would a regular house, but perhaps they could be projects for your paras to work on? Like the fixer upper car in TS2, with the ability to customize a couple aspects like color, and such. I can just imagine Sebastian woodworking in the garden to build a treehouse for his kid :)

Vinicius Fernando

I loved, show more please

simatomica

Wow certainly have come a long way!

Stacey Dunnachie

So excited with the direction this game is taking! You guys are doing such a great job! Thanks for sharing these older photos, it's cool to see that even so early on, it was still a very solid concept!

Vanessa H

Even the early work, the poses still look so natural! I'm so glad dogs and cats are in this! I'm looking forward to hearing more about them when the time comes. And tree houses are such a great idea!

Antwionette Sexton

So so very happy with everything you and your team have done!

Natalie A

The fact that the doggo looks like a Bernese Moutain dog, which is my favourite breed, just makes me so darn happy! I want to see more doggy cuteness!

Thank you for sharing this. I'm so looking forward what doggo will look like in the new art style.

Ghislain Pedro

This is so precious! Thank you for sharing old work!

Love all the amazing work you do Alex! It must be so amazing getting to see your work from the start and how much it has grown since! Keep up the amazing work!❤️

The tree house omg!!!!

Zeevryn

I love the idea of a treehouse you could build and expand upon! Also, doggo!!!

The way this game is progressing is phenomenal! I'm truly honored to be able to watch the development from the ground up. I absolutely cannot wait to play this game. Keep up the good work!!!

I WISH THE DOGGO CAN BE THE NEXT REVEAL. I am in love with him already.

They were so cute! But I prefer the new ones of course! Amazing job!

I would have been happy with just that

Angela

Ahh. The original parapeople. I kinda like em! They have charm

Alex Massé

Thanks for the feedback, we are working on improving that and other things on the character at the moment :)

Big differences for sure. Keep up the great work! 👍👍

Alex Massé

Thank you!! We are looking into clothing options at the moment, can't confirm yet :)

Alex Massé

Haha! I have Pete Nelson's book right here on my desk!

The improvements are mind blowing ! You did really good Alex, your team is full of wonderful, gifted, kind, passionately concerned people.... things can only get better and better ❤️

Kiiiwiii

And also, PLEASE give us the option for treehouses in the future. That already looks fantastic!

With the recent disappointing reveal of the Sims latest, this is such a pleasant treat

Kiiiwiii

Don't get me wrong. I LOVE THIS. I see some "masculinity' in Maggie's figure in this picture. Is this meant to look that way or/and if not. Is this something you could look at if there is time to? I would love to see the structure difference between men and women more than I already can :)

Hannah Varnell

This is so awesome. It's always fun to look at where you started to what you've come to. Awesome awesome!! Keep on going guys, your work is fantastic and we appreciate everything you all are doing <3

Liisa

LOL at Doggo with the underwear!! 😂😂😂

Nick Rowan

The old style had a cute charm to it! And even if you never got 3d modelers I would have been happy with it. Still, what you guys are doing now is so good! Can't wait to see what you do going forward.

Geon

I love the improvements, Amazing job so far- crazy how they can look even better! I have a question, not sure if answered already, but i noticed that the gentleman sitting down has his shirt tucked in??! Is that optional for certain clothing if not all?

I seriously can’t wait for this game ❤️ it also feels nice to know my contributions on Patreon are directly affecting how much the game progresses to being more detailed and what not. It’s amazing to see the progress so far already!

Simmons

Also that second picture of doggo is so accurate because my dog is always stealing our socks and stuff from the laundry too 🤣

MattSeibel

what a amazing change! I can’t wait to see what you guys can do with full team 🥰🥰

Alex Massé

Not sure, where are you seeing that? :)

Natasha Welsh

God that treehouse looks so cool, I hope we can still create something like that in the final game!

Alex Massé

I used to have a dog like Doggo when I was a kid <3 Maybe I can show a picture someday!

Shelly Rice

It's great to see the thought processes! And tree houses? Definitely something for the future as they're ace. Maybe meet up with Pete Nelson, the Tree House Master. His creations are amazing! 🌲🌲😍😍

Simmons

Is Doggo based on your own dog? If so you should post a rl picture of him ❤️

Deborah Mutombo

Do the red bookmark things next to your name mean that you are a pledged member?

Delisa Dickstein

Omg, I can't wait to play this!

Maiden Minnesota

That tree house is the best! I hope we get to see that in the game at some point!

Julio Saliba

Thank you for the memories and old concepts Alex. So much has changed!

I hope that treehouses, while I imagine they will be quite a challenge, will be able to be implemented if not with the initial release, then within the future of this game!

Zedef

Love seeing these! And it would be terrific if we, eventually, got a treehouse like that!

can’t wait to play this game all the time!!

Hayley Seymour

The way this game has progressed is just mind blowing. Even now, with such a small team, you’re doing amazing things. Following the production of this game over the last year or so has been so interesting, and I can’t wait to see where you go from here... and of course, to eventually play!!

wow this game is going to be breathtaking

omg I'm in love with the tree house!

Wow! Such a wonderful comparaison! You guys are awesome!
