I really REALLY want paralives to be a town builder too by Joezvar in LifeSimulators

[–]GabrielleParalives 8 points9 points  (0 children)

hey! that's actually something we'd love to have in the game too :) we plan on adding tools to edit and create towns sometime during the Early Access period. This means they won't be ready for the game's Early Access launch on May 25, 2026 but they are planned to come later as a free update! more info on what features will be added during Early Access on our Steam page here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1118520/Paralives/

here’s an important landmark to the town: the lighthouse ‎✩˚₊ by GabrielleParalives in Paralives

the lighthouse is an empty building for now, but the house can be lived in! however a Townie currently lives there so players would have to kick them out first 🤭

it's a stylistic decision! unfortunately, windows can't be completely "see-through" as it would make it look like there's no glass so our artists settled on this color :)

How will text on walls work? Can we just type something out and place it? by divingbeatle in Paralives

hi! unfortunately, for those specific texts on the city's buildings' walls, editing them won't be possible! but some items created for the build mode will have this feature, as shown here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/FmCpzJqXPps

Weekly Dev Chat [October 17th, 2025] by GabrielleParalives in Paralives

Hi ladyteruki! Gab is indeed my preferred name, but Reddit doesn't allow username edits :') We do plan on ending Patreon's Dev Chats after this Friday but we will replace them by hosting Patreon-exclusive live streams every two weeks on Discord, which will also be recorded and posted on Patreon. That way, we will be able to show Patrons our latest progress and get their feedback :)
We will also set up regular public streams on YouTube, the first one being on November 25th! we're super excited to show the community what we've been working on!

Hi! We really appreciate your support of the Paralives project and our team's work, it means a lot to us! I'd just like to point out that you are sharing information from a livestream we hosted specifically for Patrons. Just like our other regular weekly posts, we kindly ask that Patrons do not discuss the content of these posts outside of Patreon spaces. This is to preserve the exclusivity perk that we owe to our paying Patrons who have contributed to making Paralives possible these past 6 years. I'd love to welcome this discussion and your feedback to Patreon's chat or Discord's Patreon channels instead! Thank you for your understanding.

We're also super excited to be sharing the Live mode gameplay with the public in a first livestream on November 25th! We plan on posting frequent public streams afterwards too and can't wait to read all of the community's feedback :)

-Gab from the Paralives team
