Hello!

Are you ready?


Maggie Early Sneek Peak!

As promised, here are two screenshots to show you what Maggie looks like before everyone can see her tomorrow! PLEASE KEEP THIS A SECRET :)


This was just a little sneak peek but there will be a lot more features shown in tomorrow's public video! Tell us what you think about Maggie and the visual design of the Parafolks in the comment section of this post! It's really exciting for us to finally reveal this and we can't wait to show more! :D


New Tiers and Rewards

We thought the Parafolk reveal was a good time to improve our Patreon page with more tiers and rewards! So we added a lot of rewards, check them out! If you would like to change your current tier, follow this quick tutorial. Thank you so much!


Removing the 1$ Toddler Tier

As we are increasing the development speed and adding Patreon rewards, we felt that we had to adjust the tiers. That's why we removed the 1$ Toddler tier today. All the benefits were transferred to the 3$ Adult tier. But don't worry, this will not affect people who are currently on the 1$ Toddler tier. They will still get to pay 1$/month and enjoy the rewards from the 3$ Adult tier.

New Project Goals

We added project goals to our Patreon page. Since Paralives is an ambitious project, we aim to reach a team of 10 people in total. The Patreon money is directly used to hire professional and experienced game developers. If we don't reach our final goal, it doesn't mean the development is in danger, it just means that we will have to adjust our planning :)


That's it for today! There will be another Patreon post tomorrow at noon EDT to share the full Maggie reveal video. There will be a lot of cool stuff in there so don't miss it :)

Cheers!

Alex and the team

Edit: This post is now public!

Well, I personally expected something more stylized. In my opinion her neck and shoulders are slightly strange shaped and the shading on the skin is somewhat creepy. However the clothing and accessories are lovely, the way they suit the model is also a great addition. I still have questions: will you be able to adjust head shape/size, and will there be presets regarding the body and face? (I’m also considering that the fact I find her kind of creepy is because of her stiff pose)

Okay, I hate to be the only negative Nellie here, but she looks like a 2D character pasted over a 3D environment. Is it just a bad screen shot? I had to zoom my screen way in to be able to see her. And why is her nose pink?

THANK YOU SM!! A couple ideas. 1. Her body/clothing/face design looks pretty great! I love how her face has realistic proportions but still looks cute! AWESOME! One thing I noticed is that her skin has a sort of cartoonish sheen and her body doesn’t really interact with light the same way that the rest of the room does. IDK if you will change those things to make her skin look more natural but either way it looks fantastic and I can’t wait for this game. Thank you guys sm.

Zedef

Maggie looks so cute. I like the "softness" of the facial features. And she has freckles on her face and shoulders! The body proportions look great too and that dress is adorable. The texture of the dress and the shirt/jeans combo looks different, hope that means there are different kinds of "fabric" in the game. In the dress pic you can see the outfit options; does that mean she can change outfits in the game/her current location or does the piece of furniture behind her contain her clothes? Great idea on the new tiers (was that Christine's?) and rewards, I think the transparency about set goals will help convine those who aren't sure yet about donating.

I noticed a difference in the graphic quality in the loft trailer for the most recent images. Will the game's graphics maintain the visual quality of the released video? Or was it just to show the game? By the way, I really loved the design of the Parafolks, just perfect, exceeded my expectations <3

Anonymous

Interesting! She looks like a walking cartoon almost? I think there's room for improvement, but I like it so far. I can't wait to see more details though. Like is the red I see across her face a result of skin texture or makeup? And I'm glad you guys finally updated your patreon subscriptions, you definitely deserve more; I'll look into upgrading mine.

I personally LOVED how everything matches and work together, everything looks like having a fine black line, like a draw. I guess some fans may be disappointed about how cartoon it looks like due to the apartment video, where it seems a rendered version and the actual pics look like a project version. I can't express how satisfying and beautiful is the whole concept. <3

The visual design looks great! One thing I noticed (and it might just be my phone) is that the makeup across her nose makes it look a little funky. I had to really look close to see that it was makeup and not just an oddly shaped nose. But over all excellent job team!

I must admit, I was quite worried about the looks of the parafolks, but damn, she looks great! My excitement for this game is immeasurable.

I was so nervous about what the parafolk would look like. I'm the kind of player where if I can't see myself in my character (mostly in personality/skills, but looks are a factor too) then I am much more likely to lose interest quickly. She looks so great though! Her blush, the suuuper cute dress, even the shoes! Sooo excited to play this game :)

I'm so excited! She is so cute! I'm really happy that you're making normal-looking townies that actually have human proportions because they-who-shall-not-be-named has been making some outlandish looking characters. Even though maggie looks more like a cartoon than does a sim, she feels more real because she has real proportions and features. Keep up the good work! You all are creating something that feels totally unique and new!

She is sooooo cute, cuter than I ever imagined!!

Anonymous

you said exactly what I was thinking. I dont know if this is her final design, it may not be, but Maggie doesn't quite blend in with her surroundings. It's like she was placed into the room from another game. but if she is updated to be more natural looking with the rest of her surroundings, that would be epic,and I think that could fix any odd shading too. everything else looks amazing.

Maggie looks phenomenal! I would prefer some more dimensions in the skin because features like her nose kind of disappear from afar, but I genuinely love the aesthetic!!! <3

Anonymous

I LOVE the art style of the game/environment, and I LOVE the art style of the Parafolk, but there’s something that isn’t gelling with me... like someone else said, she looks too cartoony in a hyper-realistic environment. She looks like she’d be PERFECT in the original game style, but since the style and graphics were updated, she’s looking quite flat; almost like a character from another game photoshopped into another games environment. Please don’t take this as negative feedback; it’s not intended that way - like I said, I genuinely love both art styles, just separately. I also understand that this is still very early development and things can and no doubt will change before release. Also, glad you finally got the tier list updated! I’ll have to see about bumping myself up a tier! I’m in this with you guys for the long haul, excited to continue seeing how the game grows and develops!

Anonymous

I actually really like the style!!! It's like realistic cartoony in a cute way 😁 The character actually reminds me of a happier version of The Wolf Among Us character style

Anonymous

Its kind of hard to explain in clear terms, but she looks like a cartoon from a mobile game. While the video of the apartment almost looked photo realistic. I am open about the art style, but this just reminds me of a mobile dressup doll game character my 6 year old daughter plays.

Oh my gosh! I am in AWE! I stared at each of these pictures for at least three minutes lol. I love her, I love the design! I love how (at least to me) it looks like she's thinking about something funny! A mostly neutral expression, but not quite "staring into the abyss." I also love how she has freckles, which appear to be all over her body!!?!?!?! At least, I can definitely see them on her shoulders... the image gets too blurry as I zoom in more. ALSO... OMG GUYS I JUST REALIZED IN THE ANNOUNCEMENT VIDEO.... I really haven't been on the discord or anything lately, but did anyone notice the new OUTLINES on all the furniture?!?! WHAT?!! Those were definitely NOT there on the Loft Reveal, WERE THEY?!!! I don't know if I'm just out of the loop... was this a new design choice, or did I just not see it before? I really want to know if everything will look this way from now on! It's soooo cool! I love it, I love it, I love it! It adds so much character to the game's overall design! It's so unique! Please someone tell me! XD

She looks like a 2D character made in illustrator. I hate being negative but I had to notice it. I think the (dark )line around her and the lines on her arm make it looks like 2D drawing. I think you should put shadows instead of lines. But I guess it is still to early to tell anything about the it as it will improve. Anyway, thank you guys for the great work and I am 100% with you.

Reading the comments, I think the para folk could definitely look like the background more if you implemented that thin black outline everything else has, and add in some harsher shadows and outlines on the defining features. an amazing start though, I expected way less detail from such a tiny team, well done❤️❤️

i hope we can go extreme with the proportions, change the irises, and have the option to change it and the other paras to an anime style look in the future (for the faces)

I'm really excited about this reveal, and like Maggie overall. However, I have to agree with the posters that mentioned that she looks a little flat (maybe this will change in the video?). I'm also noticing that some things (including Maggie) have the brown outline, while some don't, and it feels disjointed (I prefer without). Keep up the great work!

theres no way they can put this literal cartoon into a game that looks like the one from the loft trailer! LOL! God I hope she improves.

Very classy not to try to force toddler tier people to increase their pledge amount. I love that you guys are doing things the right way, the game is going to be amazing and I'm not even mad if it takes a few years to come out.

If you're on a PC you can hold CTRL and use your mouse wheel to zoom in more, but tomorrow is the actual reveal. This is a sneak peek only.

The character design is certainly not what I imagined it to be, but what a pleasant surprise! I really enjoy this cartoony, somewhat 2D-ish visual! I think she blends well with the surroundings. I cannot wait to see how the paras interact with the objects. Will they have a continued animation like sims? For example, will they walk toward the bunk bed, climb the ladders, and lie down? Or will they pop-up on to the bed and sleep? I know it's too early to ask about the animations, but I just wanted to know, if possible, what level of detailed interaction you guys are planning to make for the animations :) As always thank you for your hard work!

Joy Kennedy

I like her body shape, clothes, and hair and I know this is still early dev. but I don't like the outlines of her body. It looks too 2D and feels like she doesn't belong in that environment. Also, I think she needs more shaders for the same reason I said in the previous sentence. Or please make an option for that since some people make like it. Other than that, great job! I like that the design is unique and not trying to be like the sims.

Somehow I was expecting her ro look more cartoony. But this looks super nice too! :)

Maggie looks superb, her design is so stunning and looks like drawn digital art. I am especially impressed by the freckles and the warmth of colour in her cheeks, really helps to bring her character to life with the touches of natural "im"perfections. Plus, I hope we can help you all reach the next goal on this journey <3

She looks awesome! Honestly can not wait to see more tomorrow! Question for the tiers.... If we joined the Legend tier for 3 months to unlock the townie look-a-like... Would we be able to go back down to a different tier and still get that reward? I would definitely love that but $50/month is not something I could commit to for a super LONG period of time. Y'all deserve all the $$ you can get though. Super excited about this game.

Totally agree! I love how Maggie is not "Barbie" looking, hourglass body Para!

Joy Kennedy

To add a suggestion, maybe give players an option to make their characters realistic or cartoony. Like I said some people may like the outlines of her body while others such as myself feel she looks too 2D and out of place.

I love that she has more realistic and natural body because for me (not hating, just saying my opinion) Sims series, especially Sims 4, is really triggering to look at unnatural thin bodies :)) I really like her <3 Great job!

I love this so much! I love the style and I'm a fan of the outlines, but agree they should be a little more consistent throughout the game. I also agree she does seem a bit flat, but that just may need some deepening shadows. Overall, love the softness of the game, Maggie looks great, and the side display for outfits looks nice and simple too.

She looks like a Mobile dress up game character. I’m sure there will be a lot of cool features to the game but we were shown a realistic looking loft and now this flat cartoon. Sims 2 wasn’t even 2D. And that was in 2004. I hope she gets better!

I JONES

Yay!!! I like her! And there is the crispness of features that will help us recognise one from the other more easily than the rather doughy look of the last two sims generations. A bit like TS1.

About the design, putting aside my heart full of love for Maggie and for the Paralives team kkk, I think it is unique, pretty and fits perfectly with all the rest.. the outfit is cute, omg the shoes! I love the approach ... I'm excited to see what she can do ❤️

Im glad that so many of you are happy and like the design, but saying "Bye Felicia" to people who dislike the current look and being dismissive of those you disagree with is just ridiculous. Not everyone likes the same things. This looks like a "doll" and doesnt match the loft video, this may be an early image and not how she actually looks now. But relax and allow people to have criticisms.

I tend to be someone who prefers what some might call “uncanny valley” graphics, so I might not be the target demographics for Maggie’s art style. I remain hopeful though that her style will continue to become more detailed, similar to the art style of her surroundings (I love the look of the loft and all of the detail work of the brick and sunlight/shadows). Regardless, I will continue to support this game as a patron, as I feel like the simulation genre is in desperate need of more representation and competition, especially from people like you and your team who truly put your heart and soul into the work.

I love her! I think you guys are doing an amazing job!

I actually love the look of the character! It's unique and this seems like the push it needed to separate it from the Sims franchise. Also, to those who dislike it, keep in mind this game is still in early creation and there are many more things to come and be updated! So what we see now may not even look like her once the game comes out! Appreciate that these developers are doing their best and they also have an artistic vision in mind and don't need to 100% conform to every little nitpicky thing that you yourself want. You can have an opinion and give creative criticsm, just don't bash them

It says in her bio that she is into roller derby. Sometimes women who have a lot of muscle lose their more defined feminine bust line. I feel like that was an over all character choice :)

Simplicity

I like her overall expression, and her features in a sense however I feel as the her features could be more detailed, this could just be how she looks during a developmental phase of the para characters I doubt that this will be her final look

Anonymous

I believe in the details it said it required the $50 sub for 3 months to unlock that perk, after that I’m sure you could go back down to a less expensive tier! :)

The loft video reminded me of Pixar or a more refined sims 4 . But this current character would be out of place in sims 4. She’s 2D. The trailer tomorrow will tell 🙃

Simday1

She looks amazing! I see some cell shading. I know this is just the first version. She looks bright, 2D, with lots of clarity, compared to her darker, moodier, 3D environment. All it is, is a matter of lighting, and texture, like the first window video Alex did. This game is gonna rock.

I actually do really like her! I know that how she fits into the game and her design will change over time as you guys improve the game overall. But right now I like her. The little details like her freckles and the slight smirk on her lips really sell it. Great job!

Светлана Корзинкина

arms look a bit childish, maybe because of horizontal lines on the inner side of her elbows. Maybe two small vertical lines in these places will work better. Also some anathomy issues with her chest and red nose. But your style is cool, it's simple and nice.

I think a lot of you are forgetting that this is an Indy game and not a billion dollar company like “you know who”. Yes, I’m all for having constructive criticism but please be respectful! This game has only been in development for what a year? Alek was a one person team up until December of 2019 when he hired Roxanne and léa. So please give them some slack and be respectful with suggestions.

Aaron

!!!!! Maggie is gorgeous!! And those boots omlll😍

Anonymous

does all of the parafolks have eyes that large or can you make them smaller? :)

Becky

And the amazing thing is, how I see it, is if she was too ‘realistic’ then we wouldn’t necessarily get great gameplay, the game would break and Parafolk may get stuck like in games we have had previously. I prefer this unique style cause then the team can deliver amazing and smooth gameplay for us. And I think that is the BEST! That’s my opinion and I’m happy a lot are also positive about it. I LOVE their look as it fits. 🥰👍🏻👏🏻🎉

Pink Elephant

Ok I've notice you left like 5 negative comments in a row? Do you not know to leave 1 constructive criticism and be done with it?? Leaving a bunch of comments that says the same thing over and over isnt helping anyone. If you dont like it your welcome to play other simulation games and take your support with you. No one is forcing anyone to remain here. The fact that you cant comprehend that it's a small team still in development and this being their first major project doesnt make you give them some slack idk what else to tell you.

Its not nitpicky. Unless the loft video was doctored in some way, the 2D character in this screenshot, would just straight up not match the graphics and environment of what we were shown in the loft video. maybe the graphics were downgraded to be more 2d???

I love her, she is beautiful! I hope those brown outlines could get thinner? Thats it, thats the only thing i would change. Im sure its a first look, since the game its still in early development, the characters will probably change a little more. But overall, excited and happy! Love this game

I don’t know anything about game design so excuse me if this is a stupid question but is this a drawing or is this a character that can interact with her environment?

I really like it, it’s not what I expected, yet perfectly fits the style of the game. Personally I think the skin is a little too flat in terms of colour, but I think I would get used to this style very quickly. I am excited to play this game when it comes out, it looks so cool!

Anonymous

I love her realistic proportions! And how the clothes fits very realistically on her body, it makes her feel so alive. She looks very harmonious in a way, like a living, breathing person. I'm more apprehensive about the cartoonish look, those black outer lines makes her almost look 2D? It makes it a bit difficult to imagine them with an in-depth personality, doing stuff. But I'm sure it's largely a matter about getting used to it, since the only reference for many is the sims (and I love that this is different). As long as they are actually 3D, and they have in-depth personalities that makes for immersive gameplay, I think that this all in all looks very promising! And again, I think her proportions are absolutely brilliant.

ladyteruki

Ok I was scared for a minute, sadly I really can't afford to increase a my monthly contribution so if you had actually raised it for existing Patrons, I would have had to cancel. If I'm honest I'm not absolutely in love with Maggie as she appears here ; there's something about her face (maybe the nose ? I can't quite place where my issue comes from) that doesn't do it for me. And her proportions, in particular regarding the arms, look odd (and yet, again I can't pinpoint the issue, elbows and wrists are located where they should be ; and ironically in the pic where she's seen from the back, she looks normal). Nonetheless I like that feeling of having a character that feels grounded, and at the same time has a cartoon-y flavor to it ; I think that's a good compromise and I'm not surprised you ended up on this design. She has a 2D quality to her in a game that's very obviously 3D, and I kinda dig. Plus, I'm sure over time, just like the buildings' design has already evolved (in particular thanks to lighting), Parafolks will organically evolve until we can finally play with them, so I'm not worried about the adjustments that are going to happen. Also, please, Maggie, if you're gonna wear something so low cut, wear some sort of bra maybe ? :P

Joanna Hinds

right I love the way it looks but it legit looks like a really nice drawing so I don't know if this is just a 2d render of Maggie or if its the actual version

Joy Kennedy

Glad you mentioned this. I was surprised no one else said anything about that. This is why I support the team so much because we have so many options and not just a singular idea.

ladyteruki

She's clearly not wearing a bra under the yellow outfit. It's probably drying in the bathroom instead.

Joy Kennedy

It may be that your mind is competing with the aesthetic of the background/environment and the character. For me, the character looks nice but she doesn't feel like she belongs in the environment. I think is the outlines and the lack of shaders and lighting from the environment which makes her feel too comic-like while the background looks more realistic and 3D.

Anonymous

I love it! I didn't know what to expect from the folk designs but this is better than I imagined. I love the drawing-esque aesthetic and can't wait to see how she moves and interacts with the environment, and how light and shadows interact with her.

I love the overall style and I think she looked a little like what I imagined in my head. Maybe I'm reaching but she looks a little smol compared to the furniture of the loft is this a hint that Maggie is short???? As in...WE CAN HAVE DIFFERENT HEIGHTS??? Okay now I have a question, I'm pretty sure the Maggie you're showing is just a 2d render?? It doesn't look very 3d at all. Almost all the 'dimension' is just shaded in, so I think this is truly a sneak peak and we won't see the real real Maggie until tomorrow..maybe to prevent leaks?? Either way, congrats on this milestone! I look forward to seeing how she will change and improve as time goes on. Xx

I think she is amazing, along with the overall aesthetic. As she is developing, it'd be great to see her outline softened, and her skin/facial features given more dimension. Great work, this is a beautiful reveal!

I personally love the aesthetics, I hope their faces will be easily customisable. And I'm really happy about the new tiers as they will help to speed up the development. Unfortunately I cannot pledge more at the moment (my job situation isn't great due to coronavirus) but I will, when it stabilises. Because I really believe in this project! :)

Anonymous

I honestly didn't know what to expect, but I'm pleasantly surprised. I personally really like how cartoony it is. It was confirmed that Parafolk would be cartoony with realistic features, but since cartoony a board style, it was still hard to imagine what the devs would come up with. I actually like the 2D style it's very different which is what I want. I don't want Paralives to look like another game. I want it to be unique and set itself apart and not seem like an imitation. So I'm very happy with the style they chose. However, I'm not sure if its because I can't see her face too well in just a picture but it looks like her features, specifically her nose could be more detailed. I'm sure it's still a work in progress and they just had enough done right now to confidently show us. Plus showing us more of the development process definitely helps them get more support. They raised over $1k in about an hour! That's amazing! I'm very proud of this team and the progress they have made. I'm happy to be able to support them and excited to see more!

Maggie

Is this a drawing of her on top of the 3D world? Because she looks a little "off". Or are the Paras going to be 2D in a 3D world?

Anonymous

It seems the 2D look has been confirmed. Oh well. No offense to anyone who is happy, i just dont like it. I don't think she matches what we were shown in the loft video. She is in stark contrast and looks like a mobile game character. However, there are still plenty of people excited! So GOOD for all of you :) This is where I step away to play games I do like. Good luck everyone!

I don't understand why all of ur comments are so shady ? We get it. You think it looks like a mobile game character. You gave your feedback and the devs will most likely read everyone's constructive criticism and update her. There's no need to keep posting the exact same message repeatedly.

I would disagree, I think she seems proportional and more realistic. I think most games give women really long legs (barbie legs!) and this seems like a better representation of an average woman to me.

I kinda get kingdom of hearts vibes from the type and I love it! definitely not what I was expecting, I was expecting something like the last of us, and I think this is so fitting

Anouk Geelen

The model looks great, I really like that, I just think that the textures are a little flat, like it misses a little shading around the nose and stuff and the (cell) shader around the objects and the character doesn't really help with making it look more 3D. but I guess that can still change as it's still early in development. But so far it's looking really good!

I like her outfit though I think her dress is ill-fitting at the chest level. Like other I've said, it would be nice if there wasn't such a sharp outline to her body. Adding more realistic shadows to her face and body would help to make her look more realistic. Moreover, I think it would be nice if the reddish effect on her skin could be optional. Lastly, I would really like to see more detailed lips and knees if possible. Thank you for your hard work!:)

Honestly. I love the aesthetic! If I could make one suggestion though, I feel she should have a little more definition. Not so much in the textures/model. But with lighting, and perhaps normal and specular maps to really make her "pop". She's currently looking a little "flat" in comparison with the scenary.

ramaru

Was personally hoping for a bit of a more realistic take but this won't break the game for me as long as parafolk continue to be refined. I'm not a fan of the black outlines recently added to everything. It gives the game a 2D feel that sort of takes me out of the illusion. Also would like to see more detail and shading on the parafolks skin as it indeed looks a little flat as I saw mentioned. The sun streaming through the window would look great reflecting off of her skin. The clothing models look great however! They have nice shading dimensions and don't seem "painted onto" the skin which I like! And of course, Maggie is a beautifully designed Para even if I'm not 100% sold on the current art design of the Para. Her proportions are everything! So refreshing to finally see a life sim character who is not unrealistically thin or alien looking in their proportions. My only real complaint is the flat look to her skin and the lack of interaction with the lighting. I believe in this team to make an amazing life sim and can't wait to see the end result! Thank you all for sharing your passion with us! (:

I love how you can make your own outfits, I find it annoying having to make a hot and cold outfit along with swim,sleep,everyday,formal,party it's just alot of work. It'd be nice to have an everyday when you first make a character instead of having to do all the outfits! So far I think she looks great.

I love the overall style, but I'm missing textures in her face and chest area especially to emphasize bones and give a 3D look). In the full body preview she looks a bit 2D.

Ahhh she's so cute! I like that she has a more athletic build, and the blush on her cheeks and nose really brings her to life. Also I have the exact same shoes as her and I wear them every day, so that makes me really happy <3

I am so excited, but I have a bit of constructive criticism. Although Maggie looks great for the first reveal, she doesn't really fit the animation style of the other objects in the game and so, she looks a bit out of place. I'm sure the parafolks will look great by the final game launch though!

I literally cried. She's beautiful. Wow, you did a really great job.

She looks amazing 😭

Pros: I love the proportions, and the eyes are *perfect*. The details like her painted nails, face and shoulder freckles are great. And I like that the clothes don't feel painted on - they look really nice and I like that you can create your own outfits as opposed to having to use presets. Cons: I agree with some of the other commenters - the skin needs some shaders and more definition. The skin texture just looks a *little* flat compared to the objects. And I personally am not a fan of the black outlining - hopefully that can be toggled on and off. But both cons is really just because of my personal preferences. Objectively, she looks great considering this is currently a team of four in the early goings, and even if nothing changes graphics wise (and again, everything looks great already!), gameplay is still king in my eyes. Excited for the video!

She looks so good!!! The lines on the clothing and body parts give me into the spiderverse vibes

At first she looked a little weird, but she's growing on me. I think it's because I've been playing Sims games since 2014 and I had a certain image in my head of what Maggie would look like. But I really like her now! I zoomed in really close and I think I can see some freckles on her shoulders?? Or maybe that's just pixelation lol. Either way, I'm excited.

Everything looks fantastic! I can't believe how great everything looks already despite the game being in early development stages. The art style is wonderful & while I prefer a more realistic look, I'm still very happy with this. ♥ Great job, you guys are the heroes we need at this point, you're making the future.

For a work-in-progress she looks great. I agree with with Emily though, she doesn't really fit in with the rest of what we've seen at this point, much too 2-D. I'm also hoping we'll be able to tweak body proportions on individual paras we create, shoulders, waists, hips, calves, etc.

Uhhh, did you guys just reach the $12000 goal? I hope you reach $16500 this week.

Maggie reminds me of how the characters of spider man into the spider-verse look like. And its honetly cool, it just needs a little more polish and done. I cant wait for tomorrow and see more. But i want to congratulate the team, the SMALL team of people working in this amazing game. Some people (in the comments) forget that, first the game its on EARLY development; second, this game is being developed by an indie small team; and third its in EARLYYYY development! (And yes i say it again lol). Dont forget how the first renders we saw from this game, the window and the curtains? And now look how it looks! In 1 year, can you imagine how it will look next year? Honestly cant wait!

She's a little bit 2D at the moment, but given the progress you've made with everything else, I can only assume she will be modified as game production goes on. She looks great though. I can even see the little freckles on her shoulders, which is a nice detail to see.

The game looks a bit different than the previous (loft)trailer. Everything is more outlined in order to match maggie. Personally I like it to be a bit more smooth and 3D. For my taste it;s a bit too flat and cartoonish

This is pretty much what I predicted and it looks so great! Very stylistic

omg this is stunning. thumbs up at to graphics style! Good choice with cell shaded

Cookielllama :p

I always pictured her having red hair. Now that I see her I don't know why I was so sure about that 😅😂 Brown looks great though

Geeky Cosplays

She is BEAUTIFUL I love how the Parafolks look!!

S&M Gonzalez

I really like the design and it fits with the game and so proud of the games progress! I did have a few constructive comments though, I would love to see more shadows and shading on her lower body half specifically the legs they appear a bit too flat, and the clothing too. I’d lighten up the blush just a little bit, because it kind of takes away from the design and definition of her nose. I like her skin tone and the variation of shading on her face from her forehead to her chin. Just a suggestion maybe adding in a cleavage line for her chest, I know she’s an athlete of roller derby but athletic women still have cleavage lines too just not as pronounced:) I love the look of the clothing and her dr.marten shoes, I was really excited for the clothing reveal today haha 😊 and im also very excited with the fact that we can add and create our own specific outfit looks and title them accordingly too! Instead of set categories I can now add in a ‘lounge wear’ ‘date night’ ‘little black dress’ ‘lunch with the girls’ sections lol. Overall the first picture shows her in her environment very nicely! And she doesn’t feel out of place I think the only thing that makes her seem comic-bookish as others mentioned. are the darker outlines but I’m not worried about that because this is her very first appearance and there’s so much more time and room for modifications for these cosmetic fixes. Great job dev team and can’t wait for tomorrow video! :)

guys this morning (well 5 hours before the reveal) they where on 10k and look! its getting higher by the second! i started a month ago and they where on 5k. Damn. Go Para Squad!!!

She looks amazing, the only thing that I could suggest is just some more shadowing on her. But really I was so worried the people wouldnt match up with the world/build quality... But I am so happy with this.

Maggie looks fantastic! I love the small skin details, like the facial flushing and freckles. Her joints look really nice too and add a bit of realism + dimensionality. My only criticism would be that her eyes look a tad large in proportion to the rest of her face, but otherwise she looks great! Keep up the amazing work!

astronuggie

I didn't know what to expect, but I really like it!! She's super cute and a nice mix between realism and that comic book-look. Here's my feedback: compared to her surroundings she's a little flat in detail and shading, her chest looks a bit off and wide without a cleavage line, her thighs are quite long but her shins look super short and in comparison to her shoulder/body proportions her hands look really tiny. It could just be the angle, or maybe if you guys have body slider customization for her but otherwise it looks great!

Anonymous

I agree that her chest looks a bit off and her shoulders are too...masculine looking. But other than that she looks cute. :)

Oh she’s so cute!! 💙💙 I love the blush!!

I actually adore this. I think more body shading could be nice. I can’t really see much detail because it’s showing a bit blurry/pixelated on my screen. Not sure if that’s intentional or the fault of my phone lol

It was super pixelated for me too. I switched to the safari browser and it got much clearer! I saved the photo so I could zoom in and you can see more detail!

For a moment I feared I had to leave the patreon, since I can only spare that one dollar, but... You guys... ❤️

Stella

I really like the freckles on her shoulders and the blush on her knees. I’m not necessarily in the 3D realism camp, but details like those bridge the gap between comic styles like Kudos 2 and some of the disconcerting styles of realism we might see in other games. Agreed with the difference in the lighting of the room (like in her apartment reveal) versus on her skin (and in the room in general if I’m seeing this correctly) seems like a stark contrast. Hopefully in the video tomorrow you’ll let us see the Paras in outdoor, indoor and the creation screen as well as during different times of day to give us an impression of how they fit into the world. I’m also really curious about the hair! It looks really awesome here, not focused on individual strands (like in previous videos) although if it were I’d still be into it. It would be great to see a para model a variety of hair lengths, texture, and colors tomorrow.

Stella

Also context for the menu in the second image! I’m excited to find out what that means

I love this! I was afraid that it was going to look too pixelated, but I love this! Really, well done!

is it blurry for anyone else? or is it just me?

Alysse Joiner

She looks great! I know it’s still pretty early in Parafolk development so she’ll probably end up looking a bit different, but this is a beautiful beginning! And I have to say the Create New Outfit feature has me super happy because I’m assuming the clothes won’t be separated by outfit filters, so if for some wacky reason, I could put my para in a ballgown and name it swimwear 😂 I love it. Keep up the great work everyone!

I personally really like the artistic direction you're going with, I think Maggie looks great. It's mindblowing to me that this is the level of quality for the first character we're getting to see - if this is the bar you're setting then just imagine the final result. And with such a small team too! Seriously, I hope you guys are proud of the work you're doing, you're on to something really special here. Congrats! Looking forward to the full reveal tomorrow and seeing what else you have in store for us :)

I have to remind myself this game is in EARLY development. I was underwhelmed by this but that reminder perked me up. I hope we get to see updated versions of her as the game develops; as we did for the houses/objects. Great job team! I'm still so excited for this game!

Hi, I like her and it is amazing what you folk has shown us form this game in development. So don't get me wrong, i hope and have not really doubt, that the game will by grade and realistic as possible. I have just upgraded my Patreon form 5 to 10. But Maggie just seems not to add up right for me aye jet. If I compare her legs on the Image with the yellow dress to the large Cub in the left bottom corner, which has a clear 3D look, her leg feels flatt, like the light might not play right with her, this let her look comic like to me and doesn't fit in this real cool loft. Nonetheless, I wait for the public video today.

I'm a tiny bit disappointed, the video of the hair made it seem like the Paras would be more 3D. Her face just seems a little flat. Im wondering what her side profile looks like. I might have to warm up to her look. Im hoping she will be improved a bit 🤞🏽

I'm only disappointed with the way her body is shaped. Her shoulders are too broad. Aside from that, I'm diggin' it. BTW you guys should consider a Kickstarter!

This is such a dumb comment. You don't like the body shape, as if they can't be customized? Besides there are beautiful people shaped like this. Such a dumb and lame comment.

Megan Santucci

Maggie is super cute and somehow reminds me of old-school hand painted animation rather than a cartoon? If that make sense. She does look kind of two-dimensional in these pics, though, so I'm looking forward to the video tomorrow to hopefully see her in action.

I love her! I am wondering though, why is her nose so red? She kind of looks like she is blushing. It would make sense if she is feeling a bit shy with all of this attention. ;)

Unfortunately I missed The reddit AMA 😩. I know that the Base game will have a Teen rating, however, I wonder if the team has considered adding a pack in the future that would be rated M to add elements to the game that wouldn’t pass under a Teen rating? Nothing too explicit lol but just more adult humor, and interactions (flirtatious dancing, fun Bachelor and bachelorette parties, etc) that will appeal to their adult audience more.

It's Called Paralives Phenomenon! we are small right now, but we will grow a lot more once the game comes out.
