Welcome to The Happy Life of a Salary Man

Step into the quiet world of an ordinary man in an ordinary town. This game bundle is a collection of bite-sized mini-games, each one capturing a small slice of a salaryman's daily routine — from work and family to hobbies and quiet moments alone.

Each portal leads you to a different mini-game, inviting you to experience his life one scene at a time. Each game shares a unique mechanism and dynamic, from bullet hell to puzzle game, from 2D point and click to 3D walking simulator. There are no epic quests or heroes here — just the gentle rhythm of everyday life, filled with both joy and melancholy.

This project was created to celebrate the beauty in the mundane. Through simple gameplay, The Happy Life of a Salaryman reflects the moments we often overlook — the ones that make up the heart of our real lives.

Enjoy the games, and perhaps along the way, you’ll remember a forgotten moment of your own.
