This would be good if he was asked and he gave his blessings, but to do it without his approval after all the work he put in would be messed up big time! Giving the source code does not say, Go ahead and steal my game!
Unreal Engine Abandoned LifePlay [v2023.04 Stable] [Vinfamy]
I'd rather see Vin back and fix all the damn bugs before doing any more kink updates, and not a complete redo by anyone.
I'm not suggesting anyone steal the game. The source code comes with licenses stating how the software can be used/modified. Unfortunately I'm no license expert so I'm not sure what all the dos and don'ts are with the included licenses.

Open source license basically gives anybody interested green light to fork a new software out of source code. Some my prohibit commercial use of it, and use of it in closed sourced projects.
In other words, there is no stealing here. But I doubt somebody is ready to fork this complex project.

I been playing this game for so long and now it gets abandoned, Vinfamy did so well with this game, probably one of the longest lasting games on here to be honest, everyone usually abandons there game so I hope Vin comes back they are great at making this game.
Sad to see this regularly updated unique game abandoned, I hope Vinfamy is alive and well. Wishing the best for him, hope he returns at some point.
Especially since it was largely Blueprints the last time I loaded it up in UE. I'd be more inclined to dig around in the code if it had been C++ instead.

People are praising this game like it was one of the best games out there.
The game was fun, don't get me wrong. But, the updates consisted in kinks of the month that didn't added that much in the whole scheme of things. You still basically "beat" the game after like 1 or 2 hours playing. There wasn't too much to do in the game, oddly enough.
I'm not trying to say the game was garbage, but I think some people are overrating this game way too much. With all this said, I hope everything is good with Vinfamy and that he takes the time to sort his life out as much as he needs to.

The game is as fun as you make it to be. Kinda like Sims franchise, the game gives you tools, people, scenarios and you choose how to play and what to do and what stories you make. It could have been more polished and have more stuff to do, but it was good.
I'm also grateful witth Vinfamy cause he provided the animations for mods like Fallout 4 and, if I remember correctly, skyrim. I do hope he's okay as well. If he decides this is as far as he can go with the game, I wouldn't blame him.

If you're talking about the Mega link for the source code it still works for me

If you really want that version you could probably compile it yourself from the source with enough effort. I might be wrong but I doubt anyone is backing up older versions of the game
Maybe Vin is a bit burned out but is starting to build lifeplay 2 with the lessons learned from lifeplay 1 and upgrading it to the current unreal engine and announces the game in like 6-12 months, that would be my most liked outcome.
Was getting updates 2 or 3 times a month, sometimes delayed a little, but last update was in May.
Also the dev is online on this website at times and hasn't said anything since the game has been marked as abandoned.
