Good Game ；) Can we get a weather system added in the future updates? I'd love to see things like rain and wind changes (and some matching white noise)!

It's ok?
I was able to get everything in under 40 hours, which is *wild* for an idle game.
I've finished two towns, maxed out all careers, completed all fulfillments, 100%ed achievements, and even figured out how to turn on Creepypasta mode. But now that all these things are done there's really not much else to do. Hoping that with a few updates there'll be more content to make it interesting again. But until then, I don't really think it's worth it.

This is a great game, I spent my whole day today 100%ing it. The beginning did feel slow with progression, but once you have 2+ people and they have jobs, it starts flying. None of the achievements are hard to get; just play the whole game, and you have them.
Now, the downsides which could be fixed in the future, but as they are now, aren't game ruining, at least.
You can't delete walls. This one, THIS ONE MADE ME VERY MAD.
There's almost no outdoor items... yet items can be placed outdoors, but why would I put a teapot out on the grass? Give me lawn chairs and BBQ stuff like that.
The zoning is broken as hell. I zoned, I made 6 spaces for each of my guys, and they did not care. They'd cross the whole map to use someone else's toilet.
Are the jobs possibly broken? So you choose a career for a person, and place the item you need for them to make money. Why is my writer using my chef's cutting board? It kept happening so often that I had to put 3 of the same work stations in everyone's area, to keep them focused. It wasn't perfect, but I did 100% the game in 9 hours. I don't know if that's intentional... take it out. Don't let them do that, it wastes so much time.
Why is a pet bowl 500$? (This one's fine, but I found myself saying that a lot.)
Why can't we customize our little guys? They are just set as you get them; you can change the name, but that's it. Should add customization.
Otherwise these things don't ruin the game. It's a great game, I had a great time personally, given I did spend 9 hours as of writing this, playing this whole game in one session.
So get it if you think you'll like it.

I completed this cozy, "idle" game in 34 hours (over a 5-day period) while running other games at the same time.

- There are clearly defined goals/game progression. Quests for the town and characters are well-defined. If an item has a lock symbol, keep playing the game to unlock later. Completing the game is satisfying.
- I am extremely grateful that there are no unique events tied to a specific in-game day. No you-missed-an-annual-festival-and-you-have-to-wait for it to return. No micromanaging weekday vs weekend activities.
- There's no offline progression; it's not an incremental game so no prestige mechanic. You keep what you build until you choose to refund (sell) an item. So cozy.
- The art is charming, old-style characters. The way they look and move works well with this bottom-of-the-screen, side-scrolling game. There are a lot of extra items to decorate with (if you want).
- Single-developer who is responsive to questions and bug fixes.
[h1] Notes [/h1]
- Left-clicking an item interacts with it (turning light on or off). Right-clicking an item flips/turns it (chair facing left or right). Completely irrelevant to the game, but a nice touch.
- If you notice your packages aren't being delivered by the next day and see a stack at the front of the house, Save your game (not auto-save), Quit, and Load the game. That happens when you buy 4 things in a row quickly.
- Remember that you might need to paint zones outside as well. If you put the Farmer's crops outside (or outside of character's zone), he or she won't water them unless you assign the zone to that character.

Highly Recommend!
The progression in your little people is well paced for a desktop overlay.
There are many objects and decorations
The little people have their own quests to make their lives a bit better on what they prefer like taking a break from work or wanting a pet.
Overall UI and design is easy to navigate and the TUTORIAL isn't overwhelming.

[h1]This game has a misleading advertising.[/h1]
It is advertising as a relaxing life-sim that lives on the bottom of your screen while you do other things.
So, I decide to try out by keeping it running while doing other stuff, after I open it for 10 minutes, I have to stop the game immediately. Why?
Because it is too addict and interrupt whatever other things that I'm planing to doing! So, what is this other things that I'm planing to do now? Umm, I'm forget... maybe I should open the game up again just to remember...

This is a REALLY great little game to have going while I work on writing. I'm stoked this is exactly what I wanted, I got like 5 hours of writing done because of this cute little sim. Gonna be playing this when I need to force myself to take a break from Sims to do productive things

Super cool pint-sized game that will briefly distract players from life's horrors. Also, I've not seen it mentioned anywhere in the description but, it's pleasantly reminiscent of Lemmings (apart from the falling off the cliff part). My Little Life is a lot less intensive than The Sims due to its automation; the people have complete free will and so long as you provide food, a bed, a place to wash up and an occupation, they'll get the job done without issue. There aren't any consequences for not managing their moodlets properly either which is ideal for a relaxing idle game and rather healing if you can't stand multitasking! A couple of (very tiny) nitpicks: I wish objects weren't automatically deselected when trying to collapse menus & edge scrolling with the cursor would be fabulous.

Ehhhhhh, not a very good tutorial, also, far too tiny and hard to see unfortunately. Maybe when they introduce more scale sizes so I can see what I'm doing haha
