About the Game


Life In Yima is a pixel platform indie ARPG game made by a single lonely indie developer.
This game is filled with rich main and side stories, several mini-games.
It also features:
- Dynamic day-night cycle, which takes an important place in the game mechanic.
- Calendar system: the game records the story of Yima village between April and September.
- Character development: Fighting monsters, Learning skills, Upgrading character levels and weapons, a simplified RPG experience.
- NPC reputation: improving NPCs’ reputations by giving gifts and spending time with them to unlock side stories.


The production team led by the leader of the team – Baohua, comes to build a new village in the deep forest and accidentally find a lost person of unknown origin, the MC – Mayi. After deciding to take Mayi with the team, Mayi witnesses the process of the village from nothing to something as a helper. From the beginning to the end, the appearance of the village will be changed drastically!


There is plenty of time for the game, and Mayi is also a favored one, and does not need to worry particularly about the difficulty of this game - even if she is inadvertently defeated in battle, it does not mean that the game has failed, and Mayi can even return to the game in a stronger form.
(Even skipping time directly to the plot point is possible under certain situations!)


Not only the main stories that must happen at a certain point in time, you can also unlock NPC’s side stories by improving their reputations, along with nearly 30 CGs.
Enjoy the leisure time with villagers~
