DeGen OS is a life simulator that lives inside a phone. You begin with a degree, student debt, and a phone. From there you build a life — a career, a portfolio, a reputation, a family. How you build it is entirely up to you. There are no tutorials and no objectives. You open apps and make decisions, and the decisions accumulate. A CAREER Choose a field, accept a position, and advance through the ranks. Perform well in reviews, earn promotions, and watch your salary rise. A stable income is the foundation of a stable life. A DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO Sound financial planning means not keeping all your money in one place. DeGen OS lets you hold stocks, day-trade, buy crypto, hold crypto — so you can spread your capital across a plethora of platforms, as your strategy requires. SOCIAL CAPITAL Reputation is an asset like any other. Build your standing on a dating app where your status determines who you're able to reach. Match, settle down, and start a family. Your progress — and the occasional setback — is documented on a public feed for everyone's benefit. PROPERTY & VEHICLES You may have a hard time attracting partners while living at home with mom. Acquire homes and cars appropriate to your station in life. Financing is available. A LASTING LEGACY Marry, raise children, designate an heir, and pass your estate to the next generation. Estate planning is simply a part of responsible adulthood — as is the portion the tax authority collects on the way out. A FULLY CONNECTED SYSTEM Everything is accounted for. Your money is tracked as real transactions, not a figure on a meter. Rent, taxes, interest, credit limits, and the cost of living are all calculated continuously, whether or not you are paying attention. Choices in one part of your life are felt everywhere else. It is a calm, well-organized simulation of a person making a steadily increasing number of questionable decisions. — DeGen OS is a work of satire. It contains simulated, fictional depictions of money, status, and ambition. All photos are AI generated content, no real persons or brands are depicted. Every outcome is fictional and stays entirely within the game.
