Some important extra layers from later in the story.
The babies are sad 😭😭😭
The latest icon layers have been done and this time it adds new accessory options! Mainly earrings.

Since this month is all about finishing as much of the Derek script as possible, and since August will be the month where the end for that DLC is really in sight, I think it's fitting to have Derek be the next poster boy!
Because there's only one character avail...

I've mentioned it here and there, but today is when I'm moving. I'll be around to keep an eye on things and answer messages, however real game progress and bigger updates will be on hold for a little while. I don't know for sure how long it'll take to be fully set up in the new place, we'll have to see how...

The lovely mom of three will of course be back for Derek's Step 4 story and here's her brand new look for that.
And there's a bonus! Two sleeve types were considered for her outfit. While both look great, this second one is a bit too hip for her, haha.

Step 2 of Derek's DLC is done and we've gotta a beta with the whole thing! Of course, there's still all of Step 4 but it's great to have an entire section of his story ready to go.
You'll have to start a brand new file for Derek's beta content to unlock, but there is an option at the beginning to skip right to Step 2. 2022-06-22 18:01:02 +0000 UTC View Post

Hey everybody! We've got a fixed up version of Beta Build 0.05. It doesn't include new scenes, however it does have the cool additional features that made it into the recent public demo update. It's gonna be a while before more content is written for OL2, so we decided to make the beta content we already had be as good as it ...

After all those posts showing the neat new things we've been improving on and adding to Our Life: Now & Forever, we're finally ready to release an expanded version of the demo! It's got twice as much content all around and gives a much better idea of what it'll be like to play the finished version.
Here's the latest OL2 BG that's been created! It's Opal's trusty car. The one that got them to Golden Grove and that will take the MC all around that town.
When creating the design doc for it, I decided to go with a totally different type of perspective than the cars in OL1. Now instead of generally showing the car's in...

So, I have said in the past that editing the MC doll details in a way that mixes two types of colors together wouldn't be possible because we wouldn't be able to describe the types of colors people have made properly in the text of the game. That meant there was no way to match Opal's coloring of red mixed with purple, at lea...

We've got more music to share! And today's soundtrack sample is especially neat because it's one song with three versions. Flutter will play in moments of affection between the MC and a lead and the version you get is based on the age/maturity/depth of that affection. From simple childlike notes to a grand sweeping melody and...

Wow, it's another OL2 beta update already! We really kept busy in May and were able to pull things together for this. I don't imagine we'll have this frequent of an update schedule again for quite a while, aha. But we can enjoy it while we can. The new scenes in this beta are very cute and the overall experience has continued...

Since we know there's a waterpark in Step 4, that means Derek needed a swimsuit to go with it! He had a different one before that we showed in the past, but it got an update to be another style of swimwear. It's pretty sleek.

This is the bedroom of the rental place on the MC's street! And for just the summer of Step 3 it's Baxter's room. This is certainly not his style at that age, but he won't complain. It's someone else's place that he's lucky enough to stay in for a vacation. He's simply glad to be there, and he'd be happy for the company if th...

We showed her husband a while back and now Mrs. Baumann is here in her Step 3 look! She's so lovely. We're still not actually making playable content for Step 3 though, we're just doing the sprite sets before going back around to do all the Step 1 CGs. And Step 1 is what's being written.

If you played the beta you might've seen that there was no BG when you went upstairs. That won't be the case in future builds because we now actually have the upstairs for the MC's house! They live in a pretty cool place, honestly. Nice wallpaper.
2022-06-04 18:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostAnd here's the premise poll as well! The topics are a little more specific than last month's, but still flexible enough that we can make fitting scenes based on which character wins. For example, "Afternoon Meal" could be a picnic on poppy hill with Cove, cooking in the kitchen with Cliff, or getting takeout with Derek.
I've got the poll for next month's guest piece today! It's still the thick of summer so I figured we'd keep going with the OL1 boys. But since Baxter won last time and it'd be nice not to do the same person twice in a row, the third slot went to Mr. Clifford Holden instead! Plus, all the moms got a chance on a poll before, so...
