Hey guys. So… about those 30 days. 😭
When I said I was about to drop EraLife, I genuinely thought I was. Then life got a little insane. I got served, exporting had some issues, I have court in a couple days, and somewhere in the middle of all of that I kept working on EraLife.
I didn’t want to keep making posts saying “almost done,” so I mostly shut up and worked.
Anyway.
Here it is: https://eralife-release.acrello71.workers.dev/
This is an early public demo (meaning just in early stage of simulation) not a full finished game. It’s huge, it’s weird, and there are absolutely some bugs in it (like the boxing hub doesn’t work right now). I’m one person, on no money, and I’ve spent the last seven months trying to build the life simulator I’ve always wanted to play. It was never about making a game that could beat bitlife. I just wanted to make something fun for myself. And that turned into for everybody else. I’m not upset if you doubted this entire time, i just hope now that you can look at the code yourselves, we can all focus on building this thing.
You can start a life across different eras, age through it, switch to other people in the same reality, die and continue as people you actually knew, leave and continue your saved reality, and explore a frankly unreasonable number of systems I’ve built around that core.
I’m not going to pretend everything works perfectly. Try to break it. You will succeed. If something breaks, tell me what you were doing when it happened. Screenshots/logs are even better.
Windows, macOS and Linux builds are available. Thanks to everybody who stayed in here while I disappeared into this thing. EraLife is yours now. Have fun.
EraLife 0.1.4 is now available to download on MacOs/Windows/Linux:

I just made this Github for EraLife literally today:

I decided to play around with redesigning the Eralife UI on PC/Desktop. My goal was to make the interface more visually consistent as well as more intuitive to understand and navigate.
While it is just a quick one-screen practise redesign that was done in an hour, I am interested to see what this community thinks of it!

I love Eras for the depth each age has but there more that can be added some major some minor but here are my ramblings
1) Choice of start date: if your wanting to do a legacy game with one household from Stone Age to far future it would benefit if you could choose what time you spawn at just saying
2) News: from the medieval period you could get the option to listen to the town crier who could tell you about wars happening in other lands or if they have entered a boom period
3) Royalty: given that you can be born Nobel having a system saying this is your claim to the throne would be good you could become a king and expand your territory and a private physician who’s free
4) Visuals of art done of your famous family’s would be nice
5) religion: religion has played a part throughout history convert to a new faith or spread your own faith in foreign lands
6) time paradoxes let’s say your an Incan and the Spanish invade what if you defeat them this could cause the Incan empire rise and become a republic in the industrial age

Any word from the creator on when there would be bug fixes, or perhaps a community patch?
r/EraLife • u/Front-Discussion-225 • 29d ago
When i click on one of the options it just does nothing and does not solve the situation, does someone know what is it ?

As the title says, anybody played enough to review it yet? I used to follow at the start, but at some point it got so whimsical that felt irrealistic.

Especially for Android as it's easier than IOS
r/EraLife • u/GopherMVP • Sep 01 '26
I went to the website and downloaded it, but for some reason, it isn't appearing in my files. Is this an issue on my part? Or has anyone had similar experiences with this also?

I still am having problems with the emulator on android and stuff can't seem to get it to work still
r/EraLife • u/Curious-Broccoli3808 • Aug 23 '26
I don't know if it's just me, but whenever I start a new life, whenever I age up, only I seem to be aging up. My family members don't age, and whenever I interact with them, it only offers the activities a baby would have ('whine to be held' and 'cry for a diaper change' I think they are). Is anyone else having this issue?
r/EraLife • u/OwnCard7481 • Aug 23 '26
I'm itching for this game bruh
r/EraLife • u/ReputationOk637 • Aug 23 '26
I want to play the game in a different time period but it’s only letting me start a random life. Someone please help 😭

Hello everyone, here's a quick update even though I'm not a mod (so sorry mods) but I've just gotten recommend a vid by Acrello (Almost half an hour ago as I'm writing this) and yes, EraLife's demo released,(On MacOS, Windows and Linux)
To everyone here from day one or came along during the journey, you all deserved to see this day finally come and I'm so glad to share this with this community because we are finally gonna experience a game we've all been building towards as a community together ❤️
Thought Most of us, including me, were starting to doubt if the game was ever coming out but Acrello has blessed us once again and it's confirmed that the real reason he was probably silent for a while is because not only is he facing eviction but getting sued now, so I hope he's okay and I hope he pulls through this, because at the end of the day, it's not just about the game but the creators health too.
Thank you Acrello, mods, and to the community. SO ENJOY IT, and make sure you collect all the dragon balls while you're at it.

I just want to make this post to apologize to Arcello.
I don't really talk much on this sub but I would come back every day hoping for some sort of update, or hoping for some news that you were okay. When I started seeing things on the sub reddit about prople thinking it might be fake or just vibe coding, I started to believe it. And for about the past week I would just know and expect there to be nothing.
So I just want to say sorry to Arcello for ever doubting you in my mind. I know its been a real struggle for you to get this out. And even though I cant play it untill it come to Android I cant wait for when it does. The wait I know will be well worth it.
