About the Game

Welcome... to New Day!

New Day is an upcoming life simulation game where almost anything can happen! Create your own islanders, design their apartments, and get involved with their day-to-day life as they divulge into unexpected friendships, problems, and more!

Within New Day, you'll be able to use the Islander Creator to create your very own original islanders! The Islander Creator features different eyes, mouths, eyebrows, hairstyles, species, and even a makeup creator -- where you can create custom faces of your own!

The Islander Creator is filled with endless possibilities and creative freedom so that you can make the islander you want.

The Room Editor is a tool in New Day that you'll use to create custom apartments for your islanders. You'll be able to add up to 4 rooms per apartment, and will be able to decorate to your hearts content.

Some pieces of furniture might host some... interesting lore...

You'll be able to interact with each, individual islander, which will allow them to form their own opinion of you!

Interacting with an islander allows you to access a variety of unique interactions, such as playing mini-games with them, solving a problem they might have, and more!

Interactions don't stop at islanders, though, as you'll have access to multiple buildings on your island, such as a movie theater, an arcade, and a clothing shop! Each building will host an NPC that you'll be able to befriend, if you choose to. Befriending the keepers of each building might grant you additional rewards that you won't find anywhere else in the game!

Islanders in New Day will be able to form friendships with other islanders, and even relationships, if it gets that far!

Friendships/Relationships will form based on how much time islanders spend together, if they have common interests, and their personality trait. If all goes well, maybe two of your favorite islanders will end up together, get married, and... well... the rest explains itself.

In New Day, it's entirely possible that a friendship is one-sided, and only one of the islanders enjoy the others company. This can lead to some interesting situations...

Jobs are an essential part of New Day. It allows the player to earn money in order to buy furniture in the Room Editor, clothing for your islanders, and more!

Each job has their own difficulty setting. With each difficulty increase, you'll earn more money, making the "harder" difficulty choices more rewarding!

In conclusion, New Day aims to be an amazing experience that's suitable for every players gaming preference. We strive to make this an amazing game, made purely out of love and motivation.

To end this off, I'm giving a special thanks to everyone on the New Day staff team.
