Tiny Digital People is a cozy retro-inspired life simulation about a tiny resident who moves into a little digital house and begins living by the real-world clock.

Sign the guestbook, wait for the doorbell, and watch your tiny person inspect the house, move in with his pet, write letters, make meals, drink water, answer the phone, read the newspaper, play music, tend the fireplace, wander outside, and settle into daily routines. Weather, daylight, sleep schedules, background traffic, headlines, and household supplies all shape the little life unfolding on screen.

This is an early prototype and love letter to the strange charm of old computer “living toy” programs. 

Best played on desktop or tablet. Mobile support is experimental.
