Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“GG Life is a deep life simulation with many interconnected systems, including careers, education, the stock market, business ownership, taxes, life events, and a multi-generational family system. We want players to put these systems through their paces before they're finalized, helping us balance areas such as career progression, salaries, life events, and long-term wealth across multiple generations.

Early Access gives us the opportunity to improve the game based on real player experiences instead of assumptions. It also helps us decide which new content to focus on first, whether that's additional careers, businesses, life events, or achievements, based on what the community enjoys and wants to see next as well as any features that should be bundled with full release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to be in Early Access for approximately 3-6 months, depending on community feedback and how much additional content we add along the way.”

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

“The core gameplay is already fully playable in Early Access, including careers, education, personal finance, the stock market, business ownership, taxes, life events, and the multi-generational heir system.

During Early Access, we plan to add more careers, business types, life events, reputation and relationship features, and continue refining the game's balance based on player feedback. Early Access will help us decide which areas players enjoy most so we can focus on expanding those before the full 1.0 release. EA will also allow us to gather valuable feedback from players on what features to add, change or upgrade to make the player experience as engaging as possible. This might mean more items to our existing roadmap or adjustment of it. Ideally, we want to continue to add game features as time progresses, some of which will make first release.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The full game can be played from start to finish in Early Access. You begin at age 16, build a career, continue your education, invest in the stock market, buy property and other assets, start and grow businesses, manage your finances and taxes, and build a family. When your character dies, your heir inherits your wealth and continues the family legacy into the next generation.

The game is fully playable, and Early Access will be used to improve balance, expand the amount of content, and add features. Steam achievements & cloud saves are already built in as well.

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

“We plan to increase the price gradually as new content and features are added. There is likely be a modest price increase when version 1.0 launches to reflect the additional content included in the full release.

Anyone who purchases GG Life during Early Access will receive all future updates to the base game, including the full 1.0 release, at no extra cost.

We may consider DLCs at a later date, some of which would be free and some paid depending on their type and scope.

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

“Community feedback will play an important role throughout Early Access. We'll actively monitor Steam Discussions and player reviews for bug reports, balance feedback, and feature requests, and we'll regularly release updates explaining what has changed.

As a systems-driven life simulation, GG Life will continue to evolve based on how people actually play the game. Player feedback will help shape future content, including new careers, business types, life events, and dynasty features, while also helping us refine systems such as career progression, the stock market, and taxes.

We'd love to engage with our players to a level that allows us to focus on the most requested features, modifications and ideas to the game to make it both a rich and exciting experience to play. ”

About This Game

ONE LIFE IS NOT ENOUGH

You start at sixteen with $2,000, no job and absolutely no idea what you are doing.

Perfect!

Get educated. Chase promotions. Build your credit. Buy property. Trade stocks. Start businesses. Get married. Raise children. Make smart decisions. Make terrible decisions that somehow work out better.

Then die.

Don't worry though, that is where GG Life really starts!

Your heir takes over everything you built, including your money, property, businesses and any financial disasters you were kind enough to leave behind.

One generation might struggle to afford a small home.

The next could own half the city.

The one after that might sell the lot, buy twelve sports cars and become a cautionary tale.

Every life becomes part of the same story.

Every decision shapes the next generation.

You are not trying to win one life. You are trying to build a dynasty!

START WITH ALMOST NOTHING

Every great dynasty starts somewhere.

Yours starts with:

  • $2,000

  • No job

  • No degree

  • No property

  • No investments

  • A credit score with plenty of "character"

Take an entry-level job, go to college, start saving or spend everything on a car you definitely cannot afford.

It is your decision.

The lender is apparently happy either way.

Small choices early on can shape the rest of your life.

And possibly ruin your children’s lives too.

GET A JOB OR BUILD AN EMPIRE

Work your way up from entry-level jobs into better careers with higher pay, stronger benefits and more opportunities.

Education, experience and reputation all matter.

You can play it safe and climb the career ladder.

Or start your own business, hire staff, expand, and build something much bigger.

Eventually, your business income might replace your salary.

Or you might discover that being your own boss mostly means paying everyone else first and answering emails at midnight.

Freedom, apparently.

MONEY MATTERS

GG Life is built around money, choices and consequences.

Manage:

  • Checking and savings

  • Credit scores

  • Personal loans

  • Car finance

  • Mortgages

  • Buy-to-let property

  • Rental income

  • Stocks and dividends

  • Business profits

  • Living costs

  • Inflation

  • Tax

Your income, debts and financial habits affect what you can actually afford.

Banks check whether you can repay them.

Very selfish of them.

Tax gets calculated and filed automatically in the background. No forms, no popups interrupting your afternoon. One less thing standing between you and your next terrible decision.

Build your credit, manage your debts and keep enough money aside for unexpected costs.

Or ignore all of that and learn through experience.

Expensive, character-building experience.

BUY PROPERTY

Save for a deposit. Get a mortgage. Buy your first home.

Then keep going.

Build equity, buy investment property, collect rent and grow your income.

A small home can become a property portfolio.

A property portfolio can become an empire.

An empire can become a mountain of debt with a nice kitchen.

The kitchen does have an island, though.

Plan carefully.

LIFE WILL MESS WITH YOUR PLANS

You can make spreadsheets.

You can plan years ahead.

You can do everything right.

Life can still show up and kick the door in.

Events can affect your health, career, money, family and future plans.

Some choices give you quick wins.

Others take years to pay off.

Some looked sensible at the time, which is usually how these things begin.

You control the decisions.

You do not control everything that happens next.

BUILD A FAMILY

Date, get married, have children and build a family around the life you create.

A spouse can add income.

They can also add expenses, opinions and questions about why you bought another rental property.

Children grow up over time and can eventually become your heir.

That means every decision matters twice.

Once for you.

Once for whoever has to clean it up later.

Raise them well, build something worth inheriting and give the next generation a strong start.

Or leave them three mortgages, a struggling business and a handwritten note saying, “You’ll figure it out.”

CONTINUE AS YOUR HEIR

Death is not game over.

When your character dies, you choose an heir and carry on.

Your heir can inherit:

  • Wealth

  • Property

  • Assets

  • Businesses

  • The family name

  • The consequences of your decisions

They start a new career and build their own life, but they do not start from scratch.

One generation might struggle to buy a home.

The next might own three.

The one after that might inherit a business empire and blow it all before thirty.

That is the beauty of family.

BUILD A DYNASTY

Every generation becomes part of your family history.

Look back at past characters, their careers, their wealth, their biggest moments and how everything ended.

Your first character starts with $2,000.

What will generation ten start with?

A mansion?

A business empire?

A terrifying amount of debt?

Possibly all three.

There is only one way to find out.

PLAY LIFE YOUR WAY

There is no perfect path.

You can:

  • Chase a high-paying career

  • Live cheaply and invest

  • Become a landlord

  • Build businesses

  • Focus on stocks and dividends

  • Prioritise health and happiness

  • Raise a big family

  • Build wealth for future generations

  • Spend everything and leave behind a very awkward inheritance

Play smart.

Play reckless.

Play exactly how you like.

The family history will remember it either way.

EARLY ACCESS

GG Life is a growing life simulation game built around careers, money, family, property, business and multi-generational progression.

Early Access will bring more careers, events, businesses, assets, choices, balancing and new ways to shape your dynasty.

The foundations are in place.

Now it is time to build something on them.

Preferably something with positive cash flow.

Key Features

  • Start at age sixteen with $2,000

  • Live through full character lifetimes

  • Continue as your heir after death

  • Build wealth across generations

  • Climb career paths

  • Study for better opportunities

  • Manage loans, mortgages and credit

  • Start and grow businesses

  • Hire employees

  • Deal with taxes and inflation

  • Date, marry and have children

  • Face random events and tough choices

  • Review your dynasty’s history

  • Build a legacy or destroy one spectacularly

Your first character starts with $2,000.

What will your family be worth in ten generations?
