What to play now
Use live systems for guides and save ideas.
These are the safer foundation pages: build mode, ParaMaker, current live-mode systems, and the player choices that already have practical value.

How this roadmap should stay honest.

- Keep future features separate from features playable now.
- Label community-interest items carefully so players do not read them as promises.
- Refresh this page after patches, roadmap posts, and Steam update notes.
FAQ
Roadmap questions players search first.
Short answers for features that often drive buy-or-wait decisions.
What is in Paralives now?
This tracker treats Build mode and ParaMaker as live core systems, while Vibes and Story Cards are tracked as live or expanding systems based on current guide coverage.
What Paralives features should I watch next?
Weather and seasons, pools, career depth, school episodes, farming, town editing, and transport questions are all worth watching, but not all have the same confidence level.
Is multiplayer planned for Paralives?
Multiplayer is handled as a low-confidence FAQ watch item here. It should not be presented as a promised roadmap feature unless official sources change.
