Minami Lane is the collaborative effort of Dorian (Doot), Doriane (Blibloop) and Antoine (Zakku).

this game is so sweet and cute!! it was super relaxing to 100% and is fairly short <3
I loved this game, but it's too short!
Constructive feedback in a positive review! Love the game, super cute and a ton of fun! Two nitpicks that I think would make things so much better. The ability to build more than one building per day, and the ability to edit, create, upgrade, buildings while paused during the day.
Jogo super cozy e tranquilo.
great cozy game needs more missions and updates
a short bun fun cozy game. It's a laid back town management sim game with challenges that are easy enough to do. I wish there were more levels tho but either way this game is fun.
Nice but super short... I started it on Saturday and ended on Sunday morning... and yes, I had a 9-hours sleep in the meantime. Either they make a follow-up or you just need to replay it in harder modes or as a sandbox.
It was short but cozy. The visuals are so pretty, the gameplay is easy to understand and the goals are achievable. Even after you finish a level, you can stay at that level to do more if you want and you can move around levels after clearing them. I really enjoyed playing and am currently working on playing in sandbox mode now that I've finished the story mode. If the devs decide to update any aspects of the game, I would love it if we could more the order of the buildings for more customization.
It's such as a cozy game!! Managing the shop street and petting all the cats was the perfect unwind after a long day. However, the game ended too quickly with just 5 missions but I'll definitely come back to relax and manage the street. Highly recommend this comforting game and definitely worth the price!
Sencillo, muy lindo, gran paleta de colores y muy entretenido. Corre bien en casi cualquier PC (incluido Mac, que es donde lo jugué). Te lo pasas en 3 horas, pero que puedes extenderte un poco mas si quieres todos los logros.
