Paralives: Toddler Animations Showcase
High Chair Animations
There are a bunch of new animations like picking up a toddler from the floor or putting them in a high chair. Once they’re in the chair, they can sit there quietly, eat food, or make a huge mess with it. Sometimes they refuse to eat at all and just cry in the chair. It’s kind of funny and also a little too real.
Floor Animations
There are also some really sweet gameplay moments. Adults can hug the toddlers or tickle them, and the toddlers laugh and have fun. They can also watch TV while sitting on the floor or get up and do a little dance. The dancing one is super cute. More gameplay features can be found here.
Bath Animations
There are bath animations too. You can put the toddler in the tub and wash them. But of course sometimes they throw a tantrum and don’t want to be cleaned at all.
Stair Animations
One of the coolest parts is that toddlers can now go up stairs by themselves. They do it slowly and kind of wobbly but it’s adorable to watch.
Overall the new animations make toddlers in Paralives feel more lively. They are messy, funny, and sometimes a little wild, just like real kids. It’s going to make playing with families way more interesting than just a crib bound object.
I was so excited for this game in 2019 when I first heard of it. I even offered Alex any help he’d need since he was working on it alone at that time.
But unfortunately, I just can’t stand this style. It was ok when we first saw the first trailer of the loft. I even liked it (even though I much prefer realistic games). I guess I will only try this game for the build mode.
Of course, to each its own opinion and preference, but I’m sure I’m not the only one a bit disappointed in the art style they chose.
The characters are really not beautiful, they look like colored pencil drawings, it’s so out of step with the rest, I can’t play with a design like this.
