Our Life: Hotel BG Alteration (Step 4, Patreon Bonus)
Cove packed a bunch of battery powered candles for the wedding night because he is a true casanova, haha. If you don't like them, he's okay leaving the candles in the suitcase, though.

When the MC's living room was first conceptualized, it got two potential versions. The one in the game is "B"! "A" was very cool too, but it won't be turned into a background in the actual game. I'm just sharing this as a deeper look into the overall development OL2 has gone through.

Today Our Life version 1.7.1 went live! It fixed the errors reported for Baxter's DLC and added a handful of improvements throughout the entire game. If there are any updates beyond this, they will only be to make minor typo fixes. Our Life has reached a definitive state of completion after almost three years!

Angel baby ๐ ๐. What is she up to?
This is Tamarack's first CG from a Step 1 Moment. You can probably guess where this is set even in sketch form, haha. Of course that's a spot where she'd have a key scene.

How fancy. The robe/towel clothing layers I shared earlier weren't there to skip past cleaning up after the wedding. The process of unwinding in a nice big tub is part of the story! And it's a large enough bath for two ๐
But because this is an 18+ bonus story, I'll include the disclaimer that you can't have sex...

Buying snacks is serious business with the boy's club ๐ณ. Are you gonna risk it all? You are allowed to join this high rolling game, if you brought enough money. Not winning means you get a free snack and still have your money, "winning" means the little snack money you have will only cover buying their snacks so you can't ...

Our Life: Beginnings & Always is back on the regular sneak peek rotation! I'll be switching back and forth between OL2 and this upcoming Bonus Moment until it has released.
After an incredible, yet exhausting wedding day, you and Cove can get very comfy in your hotel room ๐

Yeah, you got me ๐. I've been hedging people's hopes on this for a long time, but it was always my goal to make it happen as long as an interest remained after the last of the proper DLCs released. And now I can finally say that we are actually making one more story with Cove Holden, or whatever last name you went with for...

For those who have been waiting to figure out what Qiu was talking about while walking to school, this is it! The special thing that's only in the woods. I think it's a pretty nice place ๐. It's so special it gets two background perspectives, haha.

Hey everyone!
Today I'm making a post to share information on a neat new element of Our Life 2. It's always been the case where the game remembers the scenes you've already done and those experiences can impact the Moments you do next. However, in Our Life: Now & Forever there will be a small bunch of Moments that a...

Here's The Diner Table in all its glory! Such a nice place to find on the outskirts of civilization, haha. Past this, the road just goes into the mountains.

Having two leads who can always bounce off each other has been a lot of fun, haha.
And it's nice to have new screenshots to share. It's been a little while, but there will be a lot more coming. I've been knocking scenes out since Baxter's DLC released!
