- AI Isn't The Point. Dependency Is. - 18 June 2026
Over the last few years, conversations about AI have become impossible to avoid.Some people see it as the future. Others see it as a threat. Most discussions focus on what AI can do.We find ourselves asking a different question:What happens when people stop questioning systems simply because they are convenient?As game developers, we're fascinated by the relationship between technology and trust. Not because technology is inherently good or bad, but because people tend to accept systems they don't fully understand as long as those systems appear to work.That idea eventually became the foundation of a project we're currently working on: Future Sauce Dispenser.Future Sauce Dispenser is a dystopian satire set in the year 2145. In this world, humanity has become dependent on automated systems to the point where people can no longer function without AI-approved sauce. What begins as an absur…
- DEVLOG #9: A trailer, shopping 🛍️ in the countryside and tidying up the beach⛱️ - 2 April 2026
Hello, Travellers! In the ninth Life is a Journey devlog, we take a look behind the scenes at your seaside stop. We know you’ve taken a liking to the Quad, so we’ve decided to give you even more transport options and some fun activities to help you make the most of your time in this picturesque setting. 🚜 New: Quad trailer Now that you’ve got your quad bike, it’s time to sort out the logistics! You can now attach a dedicated trailer to your quad bike. This is essential if you want to carry a larger amount of supplies or bin bags. The coupling mechanism and the physics of driving with a load mean that transport is now an important part of route planning. ⛽ A country petrol station: Fuel, food and drink Your journey requires fuel – and not just for the vehicles! We’ve added a new location: a rural petrol station. There, you can refuel your quad bike, but you can also pop into the shop to…
- Devlog #8: Between Silence and Responsibility ⚖️ - 10 January 2026
Hello travellers!🗺️🚙 Welcome to the eighth devlog! Today, we don't want to talk only about numbers and scripts. We want to talk about the feelings that accompany our journey. LifeIsAJourney is not just a game about driving a van – it's a story about finding a balance between freedom and being needed. 🌊 Coastal Psychology: Escape and Purpose Many of us play games to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. In Episode 4, our hero arrives at the beach – a place that symbolises peace, but also unpredictability in psychology. Seasonal work as a lifeguard ⛑️: It's not just a way to earn money for fuel. It's a moment when the game changes pace. From a lone traveller, you become a guardian. The feeling that others (NPCs) rely on your eyesight and quick reactions builds a unique bond with the game world. Will you make it in time? This responsibility gives your journey a deeper meaning.…

Hello, travellers! 🧭👣⛰️ In this DevLog, we're venturing off the beaten path! Your peaceful journey will no longer consist solely of driving and refuelling.

- DevLog #3: Engine, Hunger, and... Toilet! 🚽 - 6 September 2025
Hello, travelers! If you thought that the only things to worry about on the road were changing tires and refueling, in this DevLog I'll show you how deeply I've delved into the details to make your journey even more realistic and... well, human. This month has been a record-breaking busy one – I've focused on the interior of your vehicle and the character you'll be driving. 🚗 The heart of your camper: The engine system 🚚 Rebuilding the engine was one of the biggest challenges. I created the entire engine compartment with a working hood that you can open and close. And underneath it... the real fun begins! 🔹 Operating fluids: I've introduced an oil and coolant leak system. From now on, you'll need to monitor their levels with a special dipstick and top them up to keep the engine running smoothly. And when you're at the gas station, don't forget to throw a few bottles of oil and coolan…
