Despite their name, life sims tend to only simulate the positive side of life, or at least some idealized version of the actually complicated parts.
But life, tragically, is about more than tending a perfect garden and flirting with your neighbors.
Fresh off a grand prize win at this year’s Independent Games Festival, one upcoming life sim takes on a much darker subject in its new demo.
In the hour or so covered by the demo, you’re introduced to a series of WarioWare-esque minigames that make up Jenny’s day and the life sim elements that govern them.
Balancing all of Jenny’s happiness and energy with her desire to lose weight and meet the other goals she has set out for the week can be difficult.
