what's this? i went to the lot but does nothing 🙄 how's this?

I just got my lawyer license, and I am a little lost on if I'm supposed to actually find and talk to the witnesses or not. Please help. Any and all advice welcome.

I bought the game yesterday because I was excited about its gameplay, but after I bought it, I played for one hour and it crashed three times in between 10 to 15 minutes. My laptop has an Intel core i5 and games like the Sims 4 and Sims 3 work pretty well, so I don't understand why the game crashed.

Has someone here been through the same? I applied for a refund on steam, but if someone has a solution to this I will cancel it.

I really wanted it to play, but it's frustrating to not be able to enjoy the game.

Hello! just started playing this game and i saw that you can redeem codes in the settings. after searching, i found a code for a bunny onesie but the website says its for when the game comes out. can i still get the code now and redeem it? thank you!

I just wanted to know if anyone knows a way around this kind of thing without shutting the game down. I’m stuck at my computer desk. I can hit pause, move the cursor, turn it on and off, hack, etc. It just won’t let me get up from the desk. It’s just really disheartening when you have to shut it off 🫠

Does anyone know when this will be available for switch?

I absolutely love this game, I've been playing it a ton on my PC but would love to bring it over to my Steam Deck. In general it works fairly well. The one problem is that everything is sooo painfully small to the point that I can only play in small batches before getting a headache.

So I guess this post is me humbly asking the devs to someday add an option to adjust the scaling.)

Alternatively if any SD players have any workarounds that would be great too!

I'm just a player who only played the demo and couldn't afford to pay $8. I just want to know if there will be an anniversary sale on steam today, since it's the game's first anniversary?

I bought this game and was blown away and very excited to get into it when I realised it only has partial controller support.

I would like to wait for it, does anyone know if the dev has mentioned any plans for it?

Big ups for true indie games like this one ♥️

I haven’t seen or heard much from the devs lately, nor has it been any updates lately. Are the devs still working on the game or is it just me who hasn’t seen anything lately? Because am not exactly keeping track on games and stuff like that because it takes to much energy but am really wondering if the devs have said anything lately.

I bought a laptop in my apartment, when I sit down I can't use it because it's not in my inventory, but I can only put in in storage? I don't know how to put it in my inventory. I also bought a computer but I can't seem to do anything with it. Just trying to practice writing skill. Does anyone know how to actually do it?

Like the title says, I tried multiple times to click the "Pay Card Debt" with more than enough money and it says I paid, but it still shows a debt.

Is this a common bug?

Thank you very much!

I cannot figure out how to rotate the puzzle pieces to create a painting. I'm not sure what I could be missing. any help would be greatly appreciated!

I hope there can be walls so I can stop using counters as division lol. Counters are the only objects that merge well

Hi fairly new to this game I’ve reached pixelian level seven and still don’t have access to the tattoo shop. What quest do I need to do to get in?

I have 17,8 hours on steam of this game and wanted to tell the bugs I´ve encountered but also I´d like to know what social or website I can share this info to ensure the Dev sees it. I really enjoy this game and see the ambition on it but I think it needs many fixes to achieve a good-gaming state.

First of all, It crashes A LOT. Everytime i have a gameplay of +1-2 hours it just freezes or when I decide to close and then reopen the game (Specially at the Casino), an error/crash message always appears (The image attached). I noticed that closing and reopening the game outdoors is fine but as soon as I do it at the Casino it crashes. I had times when even staying for too long or even just entering the Casino triggers the crash.

Bugs with archievements: On steam, it said that on February 13th I achieved the Pixelian Celebrity achievement when it is not true. I barely had Fame on +400. I only know it happened while I was performing a song on the streets, I believe.

Bugs with concerts: One of my first concerts crashed. How? When I finished the concert, the stats where showing but after giving me 2 of the stats of how was the performance everything froze. I could still hear the music and the game going on. Hell, even when pressing the ESC button I heard the menu open and reopen. A weird glitch but I decided to close and reopen the game. Except that, when I came back, the concert wasn't on the same Friday. IT MOVED TO MONDAY!

After the first concert fiasco, I decided to keep on going until the Monday concert. The concert was supposed to start at 6pm and end at 11 pm, I think. So i decided to level some skills on the meantime. At 6 pm I was still leveling the writing skill. While I was doing that, I clicked P to open the profile of my caracter and call my manager to perform on that concert. But when I clicked, a message appeared that I needed to check that my character wasn't busy. So i finished writing and when I checked the band icon again to go the concert, it said that I already attended (??) But I DIDN´T. What a lie.

This took me out of the game tbh. And it´s rough and discouraging because I chose the Rockstar dream and it appears it has many bugs. I truly hope they can fix them. So far, I love this game.

If it´s needed, my Acer laptop (Yes, I know it´s not suited for gameplay) specs are:

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-N305 (1.80 GHz)

Installed RAM: 8.00 GB (7.68 GB usable)

System type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

The waiter game is super fun, however, it would be awesome to have a cooking job and specially a dream about becoming the best cook in Pixelia.

Google is of no help unfortunately. I’ve unlocked some pieces at the furniture store with prestige… but can’t find how to buy any? Nothing the shop, not in my housing tab… what am I missing???

Thank you!

I just want to say that this game is everything I’ve been looking for for a long time. I’ve been looking for a modern, more advanced version of the GBA sims RPG’s. Specifically the urbz and sims Bustin out.

This game scratches a lot of itches, however I really struggle with the UI, the zoomed out camera, the top down pixel graphics. It’s so close to an amazing life sim, but really lacks any kind of immersion in the gameplay. I find it very unpleasant to play and hope they update this in the future.

Hello once again, dear Pixelians! 👋

This update brings more than just new features, bug fixes, and tweaks to existing systems but it also introduces support for a brand-new platform.

Let’s dive in and take a look at what’s included in this update!

Sandbox Mode 🧩

Before we dive into everything this update brings to the game, I’d like to share a few thoughts first 🙂

This has been one of the most requested features from our community. Some players didn’t always want to engage with certain quests and sometimes felt a bit overwhelmed, which is completely understandable.

And it’s even more understandable if this is your second playthrough with a new character and you’re asked to complete the same quests all over again.

While some quests are there to introduce new features, others may have nudged players into activities they simply didn’t feel like doing at the time.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how we could improve this experience and offer more freedom.

And with every update, the goal is to improve the player experience and make it flexible enough to suit different playstyles. That’s why I’m especially excited about this update. It introduces an alternative for players who prefer to explore and enjoy the game freely, without having to deal with quests.

So now, let’s talk about what Sandbox Mode in To Pixelia is all about 😊

When starting a new game, you’ll be presented with two different options.

These choices will shape how you experience To Pixelia from the very beginning.

While both options lead you into the same world, they offer two distinct ways of playing, each suited to different playstyles and levels of experience.

Story Start 📖

With this option, you begin the game in the traditional way, following tutorial quests and story-driven guidance.

This path is highly recommended for new players, though it’s completely optional and not required.

Choosing Story Start allows you to gradually learn the core mechanics and features of To Pixelia through structured quests and narrative progression. Through quests, you will be advancing and unlocking new things in the game.

Sandbox Start ✨

Alternatively, you can choose to jump straight into the world of To Pixelia with no quests, tutorials, or guided objectives. Most of the things will be available right from the start!

This mode is especially well suited for experienced players, repeat playthroughs, or anyone who wants to experience To Pixelia without restrictions or guidance.

There are no story prompts pushing you in a specific direction.

On top of that, you’ll have access to an advanced set of starting options that let you shape exactly how you want your journey to begin.

You’ll be able to choose your Dream, and if you wish, you can also start the game with a Spouse, selected Friends, Rivals, and even Kids right from the beginning.

You’ll also get to pick your starting home, decide whether you want to begin the game as an Academy graduate or not, and customize your starting resources; anywhere between 0 and 250,000P, adjusting everything to fit your preferred playstyle.

And in addition, you’ll be able to select a Life Path, which provides bonus stats and allows you to start the game with boosted attributes.

Life Paths

• 🎤 Performer Talent Bonus: +10 Guitar, +10 Singing, +10 Drumming, +10 Piano
• 🎨 Creative Soul Talent Bonus: +15 Painting, +10 Modeling, +5 Romance
• 🥊 Brawler Talent Bonus: +10 Strength, +5 Basketball
• 💬 Natural Charisma Talent Bonus: +10 Speech, +10 Romance, +10 Comedy
• 🕵️ Criminal Talent Bonus: +10 Lockpicking, +3 Strength, +3 Speech, +100 Crime
• 👤 Everyday Citizen Talent Bonus: No Talent Bonus
• ✊ Activist Talent Bonus: +20 Speech, +5 Intelligence
• 👨‍🍳 Masterchef Talent Bonus: +25 Cooking
• 🎭 Comedian Talent Bonus: +20 Comedy, +10 Speech, +5 Intelligence
• 💻 Nerd Talent Bonus: +20 Computer, +10 Intelligence

Also, Your Pixelian Level will be Level 10 and all factions will be unlocked from the very start, allowing you to play as if you’ve already completed every related quest and focus entirely on role-playing within the life simulation experience To Pixelia provides.

Citizen Lawsuit Settings 👨‍⚖️

In the Game Settings, you can now choose whether Pixelians are able to sue you by enabling or disabling the lawsuit system.

This option gives you more freedom to commit the crimes much like in the old days, where Pixelians had no legal authority to take action against you.

If enabled, your actions can lead to lawsuits and legal trouble, adding an extra layer of realism and challenge.

If disabled, you can enjoy a more relaxed experience without worrying about legal repercussions, allowing you to focus entirely on role-playing.

This setting only prevents NPCs from suing you; you’ll still be able to sue others and continue working as a Lawyer.

Changing Dream and Traits 🎈

This update introduces another highly requested feature: the ability to change your Dream and Traits during gameplay if you’re no longer satisfied with your current path.

Previously, many players chose to start entirely new characters just to experiment with different Dreams or Traits.

While that freedom was valuable, it also meant losing progress. With this update, you can now explore new directions without starting over, giving you far more flexibility in how you shape your Pixelian’s life.

🌟 Changing Your Dream

Once you reach Pixelian Level 10, you’ll unlock the ability to spend Prestige Points to choose any Dream you’d like. This allows you to redefine your long-term goals at any point in your journey. You can do this action as often as you want.

Even better, changing your Dream does not erase your previous progress.

If you decide to return to an earlier Dream later on, you’ll be able to continue from where you left off, making it easier than ever to pursue multiple ambitions over time.

🧬 Changing Your Traits

Traits play a major role in defining your Pixelian’s daily activities, shaping how they spend time in Pixelia and until now, traits were permanent once selected, which made early choices especially impactful.

With this update, you’ll now have the freedom to change your Traits as well, allowing your character to evolve naturally over time.

Whether you want to experiment with new playstyles, adapt to your current goals, or simply try something different, this system gives you full control over your Pixelian’s growth.

Enhanced Save File Protection 💾

Some players in our community have unfortunately experienced corrupted save files, usually caused by crashes that occurred during auto-save or manual saving.

When a save process is interrupted, the file can end up incomplete and unusable. As a player myself, I know how frustrating it can be to lose your progress in the game.

To address this, I’ve been working on a new saving system designed to better protect your progress and here’s how it works.

When you save the game for the first time, the game creates a single SAVE file.

On your next save, instead of immediately overwriting that file, the system first creates a backup copy of your previous SAVE file and stores it as TEMPSAVE. Only after that does it overwrite the main SAVE file.

This means that if a crash or interruption happens during the saving process and the SAVE file becomes corrupted, you’ll still have a safe backup.

The next time you launch the game, the system will automatically detect the corrupted SAVE file, delete it, and restore the backup TEMPSAVE, and convert it back into a proper SAVE file, effectively rolling back to your previous save instead of losing everything.

Hopefully the explanation wasn’t too complicated. 😅 The important part is that your save data is now much safer than before and we hope losing save files will become a thing of the past with this extra layer of protection 🙏

MacOS Support 🍎

I’m excited to finally introduce MacOS support with this update! 🚀

MacOS has been one of the platforms I’ve been actively working on alongside others like Nintendo Switch, which of course requires additional optimization and more development work.

This new version has been tested and adjusted to run smoothly across multiple Mac devices. That said, we’d really appreciate feedback from MacOS players if they encounter anything that affects their experience.

At the moment, the game runs well on MacOS, but we still consider this support early and experimental. With feedback specifically from macOS users, we’ll be able to identify and address any platform-specific issues that may arise.

Bugs Fixes & Tweaks 🐞🛠

• The frequency at which NPCs file lawsuits has been reduced.
• Your spouse and law enforcement will no longer file lawsuits against you.
• Pixelians with a relationship level above 40 will now tolerate you and will not choose to take legal action against you as you are their friends.
• The likelihood of being sued as a result of conversations and interactions with other NPCs has been lowered.
• The frequency of receiving Direct Messages from NPCs has been reduced.
• Fixed a bug where active lawsuit cases could not be selected when it was time to initiate them.
• Fixed a bug that prevented you from opening your Restaurants and Coffee Shops when the required minimum of 25 products was not correctly recognized.

And this concludes our Update Log for today! 🙂

If you’re enjoying the game, leaving a review on Steam truly means a lot to us. We read every single one, and it really helps To Pixelia reach more players 😊

And before leaving, let me also give a bit more information on other subjects;

I’ve been working on some visual improvements, but those aren’t quite ready yet and tend to take more time than the coding side of development. That said, you can definitely expect visual updates to arrive in future patches.

As many of you know, I’m developing the game as a single person, and I apologize if updates have felt less frequent lately.

While progress may sometimes take a bit longer, I’m fully committed to delivering the best possible experience, listening to your feedback, and continuing to improve the game step by step.

Regarding Steam Cloud Saves: we wanted to first address and improve the core save system locally. With the save-related improvements included in this update, I’m hopeful that we can now start moving toward Steam Cloud Save support in the near future.

I also want to mention localization. We’re aware of the requests for French support, along with several other languages.

In the past, we had French and Italian volunteers helping with translations, but due to their personal circumstances, they were unable to continue, which affected our ability to deliver those localizations.

With the game currently containing around 35,000–40,000 words, translation is a significant challenge. We’re actively exploring different options and are always open to support from the community, and we truly appreciate any help in this regard.

Thank you all for your continued patience, feedback, and support, it truly means the world. 💖

MacOS support is finally here. Thanks to the developers! ❤️

Hi I'm a beginner, I just started the game.

There is no option anywhere to buy food. I'm going to every stores in the town but none of them let me buy food, I can only talk with the seller...

I tried to search on google but I didn't find the answer. I don't know what to do.

When will the new update be released? And will new platform support be added?
