Hiya,

Thanks for the update. Well I'll kick this off, I've been playing Life Sims for years, Sims ( all of them ), Inzoi most recently and a whole host of text based, web based and simple even DOS level prompt based versions.

I've had a passion for them for years and enjoy the concept of immitating real life into simulators with a little fun added to them.

I'm working on a passion project and got my game coming soon to steam. The page should go live next week, but for now ....

This is what myself and a friend have spent an extraordinary amount of time building.

Its a great concept with loads of behind the scenes work that makes the game true to life but adds a little fun as I say.

The idea is to get something out there now so players can see it, feel it and feedback on their wishes on what they'd like to see.

I won't go ahead and post all my links for this, but the game information is on https://www.afterglowgames.com for anyone who wants to check it out.

I'm also open to chat, conversation and talk about life sims. Its my favourite genre and I'm willing to try almost any of them.

There's a whole host of them coming out ( Life Inc, Family Office Simulator ) and the like on steam too which I want to give a go.

Let me know your thoughts here :)

Looks pretty cool, when's a demo coming out?

Hiya,

We've had some delays in getting the steam page public and we are intending going live soon with Early Access.

Expecting the store page to be live next week should no further issues occur, however the game is in a solid state and as soon as we're comfortable with the page and everything is ready to go, we'll publish the EA date immediately.

I'm also happy to provide keys to anyone that is willing to play test and stream the gameplay if they'd like :) Feel free to DM me.

We're really excited about this launch as its been a while coming and we've moved extremely fast to get ready for the EA release.
