Hello future architects,

Thank you for all the support since the announcement of Architect Life: A House Design Simulator. We're pushing along with development and want to share that journey with you through a series of dev blogs. That starts with Archiblog #1 - Putting up walls!

Each build starts at your desk where you'll create the design for your next creation and the first step is to add some structure. And to do that, you'll need walls!

We created our tools to give you freedom while presenting all the information you'd need to build walls and rooms of any shape. Grids, tooltips, and other aids will help you set precise angles or keep things symmetrical (if you're as oddly specific about that as I am). Also yes, that includes curved walls, but this feature is still WIP so we'll show it off in more detail later.

When you've got the building design down, you can fine-tune it by merging and separating parts or moving walls to create extensions at the press of a button. After which, you can define from which materials you wish to build and later expand on this by adding paint, or wall coverings.

Additionally, there are two camera modes from which you can view your creation. The 360 rotational view gives complete control of what you're looking at and the top-down view can help put your designs into perspective. You can zoom in as necessary or draw back when you want to get an idea of the scope of what you've been building.

We've put together a short video showing off some of these features below for those who want a closer look at how development is coming along!

Note: The video is using the French language version of the game, we're a French studio, sorry about that, but we'll share the English version in the future.

Future designers!

We’re excited to unveil our latest project, Architect Life: A House Design Simulator.

Get ready to design the buildings of your dreams. To take these ideas from the planning stages to the complete build, guiding your projects each step of the way.

In Career mode you will take up the helm of an architectural firm, using our unique building tools and editor to put the pieces together, design the layout, choose the style, add unique flourishes, and then put in the final touches by furnishing your build. All the while, you’ll be facing the challenges of managing your business, budget, and the demands of your clients, unlocking new materials, techniques, and creative opportunities along the way.

Speaking of creative opportunities, in Free Mode the only goals are the ones you set yourself. Choose the environment and landscape you want to build in and go wild! Budgets be damned. Keep building!

Regardless of how you play, explore your handiwork in 1st person mode when the job is complete, or snap a few pics in photo mode to share with your friends.

We’ll have more to share on Architect Life soon, so make sure to wishlist on Steam and follow our socials to see more!
