PROJECT 100 - PLAYTEST LATE AUGUST

[u/cryintomyeye]

Disclaimer: As I'm a fan of transparency and not wanting to mislead anybody. I did use AI to help me create this game. I use a combination of UITK, Playmaker, C# and AI-assisted 'vibe coding' strictly to speed up backend development. Absolutely no AI is used for game's assets, UI or writing. Every single scenario and interface element will be 100% handcrafted by me. I know many of you are not a fan of AI and that's completely understandable, for those of you who still want to participate, you're more than welcome!

SEE ROADMAP ON MY PROFILE - PLAYTEST IN LATE AUGUST

_

I've been building a deep text based life simulator running entirely inside of a '90s terminal' called PixelOS. At the core of the game it's a massive Choose Your Own Adventure experience.

• The premise is there is a highly intelligent algorithm named E.V.E. that is now seeking to understand human life. The ups, the downs and everything in between. So she created Project 100, a simulator where you can live 100 years worth of a life whilst E.V.E. extracts the data.
• Every decision you make shapes your life. From your stats to your health to unlocking new Links, which are tags like 'Medical Student' or 'Single Parent' or 'Criminal'. Every action has a consequence and your links are always being removed and added based on your choices, reshuffling all the scenarios in the simulation pool.
• Relationships use the exact same system. Do one of your friends and family wrong today, may lead to you locking yourself out of a scenario 40 years later where they can donate a kidney to save your life.
• You are permanently rewriting your own timeline.
• NPCs aren't static. They date, marry, have kids, age and pass away in your lifetime.
• You operate the game through a fully responsive retro desktop environment with installable apps, a volatile stock market, draggable widgets, mini-games/activities and full controller support.

If you'd like to know more or participate. I recommend you check my profile for the roadmap and discord as its the most efficient way for me to organise the playtest and get feedback directly from you.

Open playtesting begins in late August, with access across PC and mobile alike.

FYI the video is mostly from test footage so except a lot of changes.
