About the Game

Jack and Kelly, the space colony newlyweds of Our Personal Space, are embarking on a new adventure—parenting! Be an authoritarian tiger dad, a laid-back buddy dad, or anything in between while also planning your farm to carefully meet your family's and community's needs.

Lead your community as you navigate between several factions: the rich megacorp R.E.T. and its miners, your fellow colonists, and a group of maverick farmers who leave the safety of the colony to live on their own. Your parenting decisions will affect your child's competence, independence, and attachment, which ultimately lead to one of four endings.

Features:
  • Parent your daughter from her infancy to adulthood.
  • Parenting options based on modern child psychology and parenting research.
  • Three different factions to negotiate between.
  • Interactive dialogue where you decide Jack's attitude and approach to his family, farm, and community.
  • 150,000 words with branching options leading to one of 4 endings.
  • Customizable farm where you balance crops for calories, nutrition, and value.

Not rated; suitable for teens and up. Contains some discussion of reproductive health, alcohol, and death.
