You draw a birth by lot from 172 countries and regions, weighted by real birth numbers, and the game reveals your name, birthplace and family one card at a time. Then the years roll on in real time, about a minute per year, while a pixel scene of your family and home changes as you grow, relatives chat in a side panel and your health, happiness, knowledge and relationship bars shift. Major choices pause the clock, or you can switch on automatic choices and speed up to 16x. The interface is in Chinese only. Works on phones and computers.
How the creator made it
The creator chose the gameplay and pixel art direction, requested revisions and directed the release. They used Codex to write and revise most of the interface, simulation, server checks, pixel renderer and tests. The project draws the pixel scenes and portraits in code, and the creator used Image Gen for the birth screen's background.
