What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want to make this game the best possible. But we can't do it without feedback from the players. We need to iterate our ideas and test them out in the wild, so we want to make this game available to a larger group of people.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Most of the primary game mechanics are ready. However, we still need to add depth to the game by expanding the "life" aspect of DevLife. This will require a lot of work, but we expect to be able to do it within a year. However, we do not intend to rush anything and deliver the best possible product when it is ready.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“What is going to make DevLife stand out from the competition is the mechanics emphasizing the character's role-playing in the game. In future versions, we plan to add more character traits and Interactive Events in which players are able to decide on the fate of their characters and the people around them. We will also add content to the game such as new furniture or locations.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game already at this stage includes almost all of the planned mechanics. It is possible to create your own projects, as well as those from commissions, hire employees, buy and equip locations, choose your character traits and make decisions in Interactive Events.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The decision to change the price during and after early access will be made based on the amount of content that is currently in the game. We plan to gradually increase the price of the game with the addition of new content.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Player feedback is extremely important to us, so we will listen to all comments and suggestions. They will have a significant impact on the future development of the game. It will also help us with finding glitches and bugs to fix before the official release.”

About This Game



Have you ever wanted to try what it's like to be a programmer, graphic designer, or tester, but you didn't have the right skills or time to learn them? In DevLIfe you can experience it for yourself! Create your character and guide him or her through life in the IT industry. Complete commissions, create your projects, set up your own company, hire employees, and lead them to success!



Although the game is in Early Access, it already contains many features and a mechanic. The most important of them are:

  • Creating your own character, choosing traits, and building your career in the IT industry
  • Make thought choices in Interactive Events that shape both the gameplay and the story of your character!
  • Four extensive skill trees - learn how to create websites, mobile applications, video games, and desktop applications. Decide what direction you want to take in your career!
  • Finding and fulfilling commissions for external clients and improving your skills through learning
  • Starting your own company, creating your own projects, hiring employees, and taking care of their well-being and growth
  • Three unique locations - work from home, a desert office or a city center office
  • Build Mode - buy new furniture, decorations, or RTV equipment and take care of the comfort and high performance of your employees



We won't stop here. In future versions, we plan to expand the "life" aspect of DevLife by adding more theme-based Interactive Events. Besides, with each update in the game the available content will be expanded, there are plans for:

  • New Character Customization Options
  • Additional Locations
  • New Furniture

We will listen to players' opinions and introduce their ideas into the game to make it as much playable as we can. We hope that your experience with DevLife will be the most enjoyable!
