LIFE LIKE A DJ is a browser-based DJ career management, life simulation and tycoon game created by Łukasz Zaranek. YEAR ONE is a public playable career build: start unknown, take bookings, travel, release music, manage finances and reputation, perform shows and build a career beyond the booth.
A DJ GAME ABOUT THE REST OF THE JOB.
LIFE LIKE A DJ connects performances with the decisions before and after the show: bookings, travel, releases, money, gear, reputation, fans and career progression. A weak night can affect earnings and future opportunities; a strong run can open bigger clubs and festivals.
