Very surprising. The game looked like it had a lot of potential and could’ve been the most popular sims alternative, but it’s suddenly been cancelled.

    Should be noted that paradox was just publishing it, not developing

        It was being done by a Paradox-owned studio out of California, over whom Paradox likely had little day-to-day operational influence.

          Then Paradox was developing it. They own the studio. Who else is going to build the game? An executive?

          I am sure that everyone would agree that Paradox owns/developed/published Europa Universalis 4… But that was made by “Paradox Tinto” or Stellaris was “Paradox Development Studio”… The publishing wing of Paradox doesn’t develop games. Obviously. But I don’t understand why thats in any way relevant to the discussion. Paradox (the company, not specifically the publishing wing) was 100% responsible for the development, the testing, and the publishing of Life by You. They built it, they took it down.
