2021-10-07 17:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostCove will offer different cake flavor suggestions based on the overall idea the MC is hoping for. I think he's got some pretty nice ideas!
You can go with his suggestion, tweak it, plan something else entirely, or if you have multiple tiers you can have him pick one and you pick another, etc. There's plenty of way...
2021-10-06 17:55:26 +0000 UTC View PostAnother beautiful sprite is done! This time it's the Step 2 version of the MC's mommy, Opal π. She still has her different skin tone and hair texture options.
2021-10-03 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostIt's Derek's mommy! She's sharp and sweet and no one knows how to handle the members of her family better than she does β¨
EDIT:
This was meant to be scheduled for tomorrow and I was gonna proofread it before then, but it accidentally got set to today and posted before I could check to make sure what I wrot...
2021-10-03 18:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostAnother very pretty forest background! There are two ways to go here. I wonder which path people are gonna take, haha.

Happy fall!
In the northern hemisphere. It's weird to be in a post-Step 4 development period. Though, there's still plenty to do, haha. Here's what we've got ahead-

2021-10-01 18:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHello!
Summer is over and fall has arrived (where I live, anyway). And with that change of season came the release of Our Life: Beginnings & Always Step 4. It's finally out. Unbelievable. That already kind of sums things up, but let's get into the monthly report.
Like Cove in Our Life: Beginnings & Always, Tamarack and Qiu will both get character theme music tracks. And like the other music track from Our Life: Now & Forever, Tamarack's theme is multi-layered and will sound differently depending on ...
2021-09-28 18:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostWeβve released a bug fix patch for Step 4 of Our Life! These are the patch notes:
Β· The errors on the character/Cove creation screens are gone
Β· The game skipping to the wrong Step is resolved
Β· Part of the ending CG not being able to appear for some MCs was fixed
Β· Some typo/continuity errors in...
2021-09-26 19:25:29 +0000 UTC View PostOur Life: Beginnings & Always had the tiny, shorefront, tourist trap of Sunset Bird in California. Our Life: Now & Forever will have you growing up in the aging, tight-knit, mountain nestled town of Golden Grove in Oregon!
The world of OL2 is really becoming clear in my mind. I think it's pretty neat.
2021-09-25 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostAnother background finished, this one is of Qiu's house! It'll be nice to be able to wander around the neighborhood visually.
2021-09-24 18:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostAnd here's Qiu's pajamas for Step 2! They're super cute.
2021-09-22 18:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostNow we've got the tamma-jammas from Step 2! I think they're just adorable π
2021-09-21 18:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostAnd here's the second CG we made for Our Life 2, this time featuring Qiu! So precious β¨
2021-09-20 18:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostThank you so much everyone for all of the feedback and kind words about Our Life: Beginnings & Always' epilogue. It's wonderful to see how many players have enjoyed the closing of the story (at least for now, there's still that Cove Wedding DLC). It's only because of the support we've gotten from you that we were able to ...
2021-09-19 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostYou can finally continue your story after the credit sequence with a final five-year time-skip. Return to Sunset Bird once more for a heartwarming epilogue.
Our Life: Beginnings & Always is a nostalgic Visual Novel where you create your own character and grow from childhood to adulthood with the lonely boy next door...
2021-09-18 15:29:12 +0000 UTC View PostNow we've got the Step 2 version of Tamarack's lovely Omi!
2021-09-17 18:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostOur Life: Beginnings & Always Step 4 launches in two days!! Amazing. Itβs a free update that continues the story past the ending credits. It adds about 80,000 more words to the script.
Step 4 is an epilogue that isnβt separated into different Moments, itβs one long series of scenes. But youβ...
2021-09-16 17:59:35 +0000 UTC View PostA screenshot from that latest beta build. Cove really does look like a guy who'd be named "Cove", haha. A lovely ocean man π
2021-09-15 18:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostWe're putting out one more beta build before the full release and here it is! This version has errors fixed from the prior build, the final CG, and some other small additions. There's still a few little things we're working on, but this version should be practically release-quality. I hope you'll enjoy!
(Also, Cove real...
2021-09-14 18:04:19 +0000 UTC View PostWe're finally getting the last of the ceremony and reception options for the wedding DLC wrapped up! There's so many of these backgrounds, haha. But it should be a lot of fun to choose between different locations with Cove.
2021-09-13 17:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostAnd today we've got the hardworking Mr. Baumann in his Step 2 look. He's still got the same jacket and hat from four years ago and those were old back then, haha.
Also, happy grandparents' day!
2021-09-12 17:58:44 +0000 UTC View PostComing on over to visit Qiu π. There's gonna be the full neighborhood background and then close ups of each of the main three houses!
2021-09-11 18:02:01 +0000 UTC View PostWe've got two clips today and Patreon posts only lets you feature one per video post, so instead we've got a couple screenshots and you can see the actual videos in these links-

2021-09-10 18:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostWe now have music! This is a sample of the first track for the next Our Life game, what we're calling the "Home" theme. It's super lovely.
Also, really excitingly, our composer enjoyed how flexible things were in the OL games and wanted to work that into the soundtrack too. So he kept all seven layers of instrumen...
2021-09-09 17:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostToday we've got Qiu's sleepwear for Step 1. Very cute β¨
2021-09-07 18:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostSTEP 4 IS HERE π!!
We've finally got the first full beta build of Step 4. It's not 100% perfect, but it is pretty close to release-ready. It was a long wait to get here and I really appreciate all the patience.
Errors reported from the 0.93 build have been fixed. You can download the 0.94 version from the...
2021-09-06 20:40:10 +0000 UTC View PostI programmed in the text base for the final scenes of Step 4 yesterday π. I still need to add images, voice acting, etc. and then test it all, but right now we can add up what the word count is.
The free base game is going from 320,000 words to 397,000 words! With editing and some potential extra alt...
2021-09-05 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostWe've finally added in the transition scenes between Step 3 and Step 4! It's all coming together π₯³οΈ
