Paralives will launch in early access on May 25, following a delay last year. A nine-minute gameplay video showcases features such as adjustable height sliders for character creation, a build/buy mode that allows scaling and stacking objects without cheat codes, and snap-free clutter decorating for easier placement of items. Gameplay elements include flexible job scheduling, the ability to drag and select groups of characters, integration with Steam Workshop for custom content, distinct character "vibes," and a vegetarian toggle for dietary preferences.
