''Youtubers Life'' is a
life and
business simulation video game in development by
Spain-based independent company U-Play online. The game was released into
Steam Early Access in May 2016.
Gameplay
''Youtubers Life'' is a life simulation game with
business simulation elements, and influences from the ''
Game Dev Tycoon'' and ''
The Sims'' video games.
The player has to manage a character trying to build a career as a
YouTube personality.
In addition to managing the creation of videos for their channel, the player must also manage the character's education and social life.
As the character develops, the player also must manage the character's employees and growing content network. Opportunities to create videos for friends, creating videos through advertising agreements, and the revenue generated by each video's ads enable the character to purchase upgrades to their equipment and housing, and access resources to level up their character's skills.
