day 6 guys! and to complete the Lin family, we have Hong Lin
i love his design so so so much! his hairstyle is so pretty! ( im actualy growing my hair out to get a haircut like Hong). i love him... and just like his wife, i would 100% smash. hehehe >:)
Well, a good game on the one hand and on the other hand no, I can give you 10/10, but because the majority of the characters are semi-soft and there is no option to enable them to change their appearance, I will give you 10/5, other than that, it is a beautiful game in terms of dialogues and choices (despite the majority of options It is not clearly available to create your character, but that's okay.) Also, I wanted to know what would happen after the introduction of secondary characters. Things could have been made more interesting, but there is another thing that made me drop an evaluation, which is making my character, whether female or male, love a character of the same gender. This made me angry on the other hand, so I rate your game overall 3/10. I hope my review does not offend you. Your game is a masterpiece and you are clearly tired of drawing and some dialogue, but this does not mean that you should support Shadooz directly in this way, especially for characters who are 10 years old.
I think i can sort of make out what you're tryna say, but you might wanna re-write or just edit your review, if i got right what i think your review is about, it's highly misleading, with rewrite i don't mean to force you into giving it a better grade, just be more clear about your points.
im not an native English speaker myself so i kind of get the struggle? Anyway, something to keep in mind.
Though the points you're making might not be fixed by it: this game it's only on its demo state, and a really early one, so give it some time if you'd like!
Oh, I didn't know it was still incomplete. I'm sorry about that.
But if we shouldn't judge it, why do you think he would download a game for people to play? Certainly in order to get our opinion, if this opinion will be useful to him in other ways, then there will be no objection.
Sorry in advance, English is not my native language.
What do you mean by: "...whether female or male, love a character of the same gender. This made me angry..."? Maybe I'm interpreting it wrong, but does LGBT content bother you?
Soft characters, this is annoying. I don't mind characters being conceited or having long, soft hair, but the problem with male characters is when they are soft to the point of being uncomfortable.
Some people have a personality or a reason to be softer or more sensitive, for example I am a fairly soft, sensitive person and although I am a man, some of us can have those attitudes or we already acted like that when we were children and that is not strange, it can Whether he is right or not, but if there are soft people and their gender, it doesn't have to be important (I don't want to get into the issue that a man must be rough and blah blah blah).
Who said that a man is a man when he is tougher and rougher? A real man is the one who stands for what is right, hates injustice, and wants to give every person his right, no matter what the reason. This is a real man. As for children being sensitive, I have no problem with him. I was like that, but in the end, there is a time in life. This recognizes a child or a person as a man, and I mean a man in his attitudes and actions, not just a man by name.
ok friend, analyzing your "critic" I can come to the conclusion that you are one of the vague exceptions who do not like the game and that is normal, not everyone can like a work but and I would ask you to reconsider some aspects like... when creating your character, whether male or female, try the opportunity to have romantic feelings for the same gender, does this make you angry? And I also see that you mean that the characters are 10 years old as if that were bad, ok that's what you let me understand. Well, what else to say, it's your opinion so it's okay I guess?
(I'm sorry if I sound aggressive and if there is any point where this is wrong, I'd be happy if you let me know)
It's okay, I accept all my opinions, only what I want to clarify (it is not good to put 10-year-old characters having love relationships, even though you explained that in a childish way, but this encourages children to build a love relationship at a very early age, and you currently know what... It happens in America. The matter is related to the mentality of children and nothing else. If they were given a choice when they were 18 or older, it would be logical, but at the age of 10, this makes children... They see the issue that it is natural to build love relationships from a young age instead of focusing on understanding the feelings of others and how to deal with them honestly.)
As for soft characters, I mean that it adds an option that allows us to change main characters. It is not a requirement to change dialogue, just change appearance with a change in his characteristics, such as his speech not being too soft. I really want to build a relationship with Cho, but More often than not, building a relationship with him brings him to the point where he loves me in a way that is uncomfortable for me.
And the last request, if you can, is to add something to the list of modifications, which is (hiding intersex matters) or whatever its name, because it makes me feel uncomfortable.
Thank you for reading my comment and not getting angry with me or saying offensive words.
Note: None of this is coming from a place of offense; I am not trying to be mean, just trying to explain. Also, sorry if somethings don't make sense.
What I'm understanding is that you are upset/uncomfortable about:
1. Characters under the age of 18 having crushes on/feeling romantic feelings toward other characters under the age of 18
2. Male characters acting and talking in a manner that you perceive as "soft"/not stereotypically masculine
3. The game allowing non-heterosexual relationships (female characters having romantic feelings for other female characters, etc.,)
4. The game allowing the player the option of creating a character that is intersex biologically or a character that identifies as neither male or female/nonbinary
My question is; why play this game in the first place if all of that makes you uncomfortable?
It's very clearly stated in the description of the game that you, as the player, can customize things like pronouns. If that kind of thing makes you uncomfortable/you don't like it, why play the game? I mean, the description of the game literally tells you that one of the main characters is nonbinary, which again, why would you play the game if that kind of thing upsets you?
Plus, all of the things you are upset about are normal things. Children/pre-teens/young teens having crushes on others in their age group is a completely normal and common experience. Plenty of men/male-people have soft personalities. Non-heterosexual people are everywhere and have existed for a while, same with non-cisgender/nonbinary people.
Having said all of that, you are allowed to have your own opinions. You are allowed to think children having crushes on other children is weird, you're allowed to think men/male people behaving in a "soft"manner is weird, and you're allowed to think the existence of queer people is weird. I'm not trying to change your opinions on any of these matters, just trying to explain.
Restating my question, why play the game in the first place if it contains multiple factors that will upset you? I understand having critiques for a game but it seems a little redundant to play and critique a game knowing there are numerous components to the game that you find uninteresting and uncomfortable. That makes you biased and therefor, not the most reliable critic.
Additionally, your "critiques" aren't really critiques, you are just stating the things about the game that made you uncomfortable/angry.
So for a third time I will ask; Why play the game if you know there are multiple things in the game that you won't like?
decent. And the reason is simple: the drawing, the drawing, the backgrounds, and so on, make me feel comfortable, despite their negatives. The details of the drawing make me happy, and as for the percentage of the description of the game saying this and that, I literally saw the title of a game and entered and installed the game. I did not see pictures, I did not see Description of the game: I know that the story is about choices, nothing more than a role-playing game, so I did not know these things until after I downloaded everything and finished the game, and as for the percentage My problem is that children have romantic feelings from a young age. This is a problem. You cannot predict what they will do in the future. Children are like a seed. If you plant it and treat it with the same dirt and water, it will naturally grow into a plant and then become a tree. This explains how to cultivate that seed. Things for children from a young age. Children are naturally innocent, and if they receive such ideas, this will naturally make children grow up with these topics, such as the Internet and so on. So, look at yourself when you did not need the Internet in your life and you loved going out and about, but now you need the Internet because it literally has everything, food delivery, paying bills and so on, your business, everything is in a phone, so nothing is cultivated for a child from his childhood, This means that he will grow up as he grows up, so we are adults and makers of games, influencers, or content, and if this child receives these things, we will literally be responsible. You, I, and all of us are responsible for our actions, so it is our duty not to teach them this. Things at an early age. I was soft since I was young, but with the passage of time, I saw how life requires having a mind, being strong in mind and body, and having an understanding mind, not an attacking one. My life became peace of mind, but children will not understand these things. I apologize if my words were long, but I had to give you all clear reasons, that in the end we are responsible until the end.
Ok sorry if this sounds rude but i think if a parent allows their child freely on the internet, they probably know what to expect and really dont care that much. If you're a parent with a child, simply don't let them play it if you so wish!
I think having crushes at a young age is a normal thing, I myself developed my first crush around the same age as the characters in the beginning of the game, and even then, the crushing aspect is not forced upon you!!
What I'm trying to say is, leave the responsibility to the parents. Your opinion is perfectly valid, but it's also just that - your own opinion!
I'm not trying to say you shouldn't have mentioned it, but seeing as it was listed as an otome game, and multiple of the aspects you were criticizing were mentioned in the description, it is mostly your fault for being uncomfortable with these aspects if you didn't take the time to read about what the game is.
Anyway, that's just my thoughts! Again, sorry if I came off as rude, I'm sort of bad with wording things :3
Back again with my OC, but in step 2 before my birthday tomorrow (I am so excited for the update this month!). I'll try to remember to post a lot more unasked and unnecessary information about her tomorrow!
Again, still a girl failure lesbian... She's still the same as she was when she was 10... But with a bit more of an angrier facade instead of an 'everything is fine' facade. She still acts her same old self with Tamarack, Qiu and her mother. And only is her 'true' self alone (I swear she's not me)
No, she hates cinnamon crunch, because she's autistic (like me, but I swear she isn't me) she's very particular with her cereal, plus she has to eat cereal fast because she doesn't like it too soggy or too dry. And it depends on what cinnamon is on, but it can't be too much of it.
im usually not that big into visual novels but this is actually so cool. the art is amazing and its super impressive how almost every choice you make changes the story
i love her! the dress is so beautiful, love the earings, the scarf is just *chef's kiss*. her eyes and hair are amazing. just all around a cute and beautiful character.... also i would 100% smash
L-Look guys, i swear I'm not it! All I'm saying is a bit of constructive criticism can be healthy, the downvoting gnome is nit giving constructive criticism, i am defending the downvote button not the gnome, that's all i swear!
love the fact whenever you have a different personality, it says something different durning "If Tamarack was a swoosh, and Qiu was a breeze, you were..." I've already found out some, like the "you were a tiny sigh" "you were a storm" "you were a whirlwind" and "you were the kite floating on that wind" I wonder if there's some more heh.. That would be cool😎😎😎
First time commenting on anything in this website (I think...)
This game is my new (I've been here since 2022-2023) hyperfixation (I cannot stop playing, I don't even change any of my choices while replaying it for the 197th time in a row).
So, here's my OC (She's literally just me but looks better and name is cooler)
I love her so much, my favourite girl failure lesbian <3
Not that anyone asked or needs, I'll info dump about her in two days (My birthday, yippee! I'm finally 18 ... Not so yippee...) and I'll draw her (maybe not in two days, but who knows)
She loves vanilla! Has to be in the mood for red velvet (and it has to be a certain red velvet recipe) and is really picky with her strawberries (again has to be in the mood for only the fruit, she hates fake strawberry flavouring)
hi! I introduced myself using my name instead of my nickname for a few characters. Will I have the chance to introduce my nickname to them after meeting them for the first time??
sorry if the question sounds silly, I'm just curious;;
finally introducing my scrimblo here... through doodles!! this is marin!! she/her prns in step one, he/him in step two. i've only drawn his step two design so far :]
my silly little overachiever,, might post more about him when I've developed him a bit better :]
Weekend 5 of posting tamarack pics out of my tablet til game updates
I've ran out of special tamarack pics, so to the person or 2 that actually follows this I've got 2 options, switch to Qiu or simply post regular old screenshotsdecided to spice things up and posted a tamarack from my phone taken by my tablet
(Yes I got OL on both my phone and tablet that's a totally normal thing to do)
It wouldn't be in a few months, I'm afraid. It'd be six months or more from now. But yeah, I do hope to add a Step 3 preview before the full launch, if possible!
ok so here's my silly little character who's name is blurred out bc its my real actual dead name in step 1 plus my drawing of them (it's me when i was ten but cooler) i think she's a cutie
so its day 3, im gonna talk about the last member of the boys club (and my favorite character in the whole game),Qiu
i love step 2 qiu's design, the hair is amazing, love the earings, and i never thought of qiu as a choker wearing type of person, yet they pulled it off so well
Meet Elias, he's a little guy who doesn't really trust other kids due to him being bullied at his previous school for being thin and short.. He's usually reserved and a bit sultry in general but he's pretty nice if you manage to get past that.
For Elias, Tamarack is a 'they're so annoying but i still somehow like them' kind of friend and Qiu is a 'I love you and will actively show favoritism to you' kind of friend (he has a crush on them)
I DEMAND AN EXPLANATION OF WHO SHE IS AND WHY SHE LOOKS SO LIKE MY OLD PROFILE PHOTO ALSO BECAUSE HE'S SO CUTE PLEASE GB PATCH STOP MAKING SUCH CUTE CHARACTERS IYAAAAAAAA
thats serenity!! i think shes around a year younger than we are in the story?? also friends with tamarack, we'll see more of her in step 2 !! :> i love her smmm
may you settle on a profile pic, it is rather annoying(not really) searching someone that changed their PFP.
Also i guess it's time to admit that you are definitely more popular than me on the N&F page so, i declare i give up, val has won the( quite possibly one sided) rivalry, id say it was a close match but it was not at all.
I thought it was a joke and I simply commented as I normally would, although at the end of November I was not active since the amount of people there was overwhelming.
Her mother saw new opportunities in Golden Grove and decided to live there for a better life. Maddie has moved a lot in her life, so she got used to moving around. After moving to Golden Grove, she met Qiu and Tamarack. Initially, she didn't care to become friends with them, but later became best friends with them because of spending time with them for so long.
Fun fact: Maddie has a much stronger connection with animals than with humans because animals don't judge about what you think or say. This made her have an obsession with nature and wildlife.
Maddie only talks casually to people she feels comfortable with. While alone she acts (or with someone she trusts) she acts more herself.
Maddie has an extremely quiet personality, consistent with her appearance of looking like a mannequin. Many describe her as beautiful yet uncanny, as she was born with skin as white as paper, sharp facial features, paranoid eyes, long white hair, and very tall. Her appearance brought a lot of unwanted attention to her. Despite all that she was still the best hide-and-seek player known to man.
This led her to become very clingy to Qiu and Tamarack. She was especially clingy to Qiu, as they were popular too and she wanted to learn how to navigate popularity. Aside from this, she felt distant from them because she cared about how people thought of her while Qiu did not. Qiu gave up trying to please everyone, as Maddie hadn't done so herself.
Due to school stress, Maddie would lie to her mother to rebel against her. Lying about after school clubs and having after school tutoring. With having extra free time, she would hang out with Qiu on the days they skip their ballet classes or hangout in the forest. Maddie would remove all her frustration in the forest, shedding all her outer clothes and only wear her inner clothes which are tank top, and some shorts. Throughout the forest, she walks barefoot, climbs trees, and swims in a nearby lake near the forest. She got used to the cold autumn weather at Gloden Grove and became resistant to poking twigs, sharp rocks that got between their feet, and the feeling of dirt.
Fun Fact: Maddie nicknamed Qiu xióng which means bear in Chinese, as he's always wearing a fuzzy jacket. Tamarack's nickname is Biene which means bee, because when Tamarack was child, she was a very 'busy bee' in Maddie definition.
Maddie only calls out Qiu and Tamarck with their nicknames (yes even in public). This is because she feels like she can talk freely to them.
Maddie will fight physically and emotionally for Tamarck and Qiu. As Maddie sees them very dear to her, and if something wrong ever happens to them she assumes the problem could lead Qiu or Tamarck to disappear from her. This could cause problems if the fights are physical. Despite her looks, Maddie is surprisingly strong, and she can fight well, but she lacks self-control when fighting. Resulting in many consequences for her.
Cute fun fact: Maddie unknowingly would get very close and snuggly with Qiu and Tamarck when by their side. Hugging them without any thought, grab hold of their clothing, leading on them, or rub her head against them when she has a lot of energy. This sometimes comes off as teasing or flirting to many.
(IDK why I did this, but it was fun to write out my character in the game.)
thought about doing something nice, so from now, everyday i will make posts about how amazing and beautiful the character designs are. yesterday i talked about step 3 renee's design, so today i'll talk about the other side of the coin (kinda);step 2 baxter's design
i absolutely love it, he looks amazing in a sweater, love the white and black rings, love his hair. one of my favorite design's in OL:N&F
Who are you? and why does he call you vel? Are you going to be my clone or something?
And no one aw go crazy here it is socially accepted to replay the game as many times as you want even if it is because of a different dialogue that you didn't know

day 6 guys! and to complete the Lin family, we have Hong Lin
i love his design so so so much! his hairstyle is so pretty! ( im actualy growing my hair out to get a haircut like Hong). i love him... and just like his wife, i would 100% smash. hehehe >:)
literally hear me out for the Lins bro THEY'RE ALL SO GORGEOUSSS
YOU ARE SO RIGHT OMGGG
hes nice but that left hand is a sin to humanity
Qiu's father doesn't convince me that much, he feels quite flat compared to all the other characters
Well, a good game on the one hand and on the other hand no, I can give you 10/10, but because the majority of the characters are semi-soft and there is no option to enable them to change their appearance, I will give you 10/5, other than that, it is a beautiful game in terms of dialogues and choices (despite the majority of options It is not clearly available to create your character, but that's okay.)

Thank you for reading my comment and not getting angry with me or saying offensive words.
Note: None of this is coming from a place of offense; I am not trying to be mean, just trying to explain. Also, sorry if somethings don't make sense.
What I'm understanding is that you are upset/uncomfortable about:
1. Characters under the age of 18 having crushes on/feeling romantic feelings toward other characters under the age of 18
2. Male characters acting and talking in a manner that you perceive as "soft"/not stereotypically masculine
3. The game allowing non-heterosexual relationships (female characters having romantic feelings for other female characters, etc.,)
4. The game allowing the player the option of creating a character that is intersex biologically or a character that identifies as neither male or female/nonbinary
My question is; why play this game in the first place if all of that makes you uncomfortable?
It's very clearly stated in the description of the game that you, as the player, can customize things like pronouns. If that kind of thing makes you uncomfortable/you don't like it, why play the game? I mean, the description of the game literally tells you that one of the main characters is nonbinary, which again, why would you play the game if that kind of thing upsets you?

Restating my question, why play the game in the first place if it contains multiple factors that will upset you? I understand having critiques for a game but it seems a little redundant to play and critique a game knowing there are numerous components to the game that you find uninteresting and uncomfortable. That makes you biased and therefor, not the most reliable critic.
Additionally, your "critiques" aren't really critiques, you are just stating the things about the game that made you uncomfortable/angry.
So for a third time I will ask; Why play the game if you know there are multiple things in the game that you won't like?
Sorry this is so long

Anyway, that's just my thoughts! Again, sorry if I came off as rude, I'm sort of bad with wording things :3
I still don't understand it, since the internet can result in an addiction but love is the most beautiful thing there is
Back again with my OC, but in step 2 before my birthday tomorrow (I am so excited for the update this month!). I'll try to remember to post a lot more unasked and unnecessary information about her tomorrow!
Again, still a girl failure lesbian... She's still the same as she was when she was 10... But with a bit more of an angrier facade instead of an 'everything is fine' facade. She still acts her same old self with Tamarack, Qiu and her mother. And only is her 'true' self alone (I swear she's not me)
SHES SUCH A CUTIE I LOVE HER SMMMMM :O also in case i dont get to say anything tmrw... HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY !!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Fank you :3
I love her so much, I cannot not make her and play different everytime I restart. It HAS to be the same everytime
hi i know this is like 5 hrs later but... would she like cinnamon crunch cereal??? (or just cinnamon in general) (she would eat yogurt...)
No, she hates cinnamon crunch, because she's autistic (like me, but I swear she isn't me) she's very particular with her cereal, plus she has to eat cereal fast because she doesn't like it too soggy or too dry. And it depends on what cinnamon is on, but it can't be too much of it.
She loves yoghurt.
(I love your comments)
1. REALLL like it so annoying when your cereal just gets so freaking soggy to the point it feels like thick wet paper
2. is her favorite cereal cornflakes
3. would she like plain yogurt or flavored???
BTW HAPPY BRITHDAY!!!! good wishes to you and the silly
Yes, her favourite cereal is cornflakes! Also Cheerios, she really loves the 'plain' ones that don't have much added flavour.
She loves both, but would choose flavoured yoghurt (vanilla is her favourite) over the plain non flavoured one.

Guys we gotta Talk....WHO'S THE GNOME DISLIKING EVERYONE
we need to find out, we cant have any negativity here! this is supposed to be a wholesome fandom!
WHO WE TALKING ABOUT?
we ain't gonna let anyone be negative towards any lifecorners
I'd say it's not wrong to leave a downvote, it is leaving it without even commenting on anything
(I assure you i am not the gnome please don't execute me this game is all i have😭)
🤔🤨 hmmmmmmm
Max, please look us in the eyes and say " im not the down-voting gnome" please
L-Look guys, i swear I'm not it! All I'm saying is a bit of constructive criticism can be healthy, the downvoting gnome is nit giving constructive criticism, i am defending the downvote button not the gnome, that's all i swear!
you're safe for now max...
Seems legit
let's finish him with hugs
Let's wish them a happy day until they cry 😡
Let's give him all the Love Golden Grovers can muster
Spoilers to the demo maybe?//
love the fact whenever you have a different personality, it says something different durning "If Tamarack was a swoosh, and Qiu was a breeze, you were..." I've already found out some, like the "you were a tiny sigh" "you were a storm" "you were a whirlwind" and "you were the kite floating on that wind" I wonder if there's some more heh.. That would be cool😎😎😎
Is it on the base demo? Or the Patreon one? I don't recall reading anything by that
its already on the base demo!
really? which scene was this? i literally don't remember going through this dialogue T^T or maybe I just haven't gone through this yet..
Oh! Its after you, Qiu and Tamarack go to school together for the first time :DD
thanks!! ^^
First time commenting on anything in this website (I think...)
This game is my new (I've been here since 2022-2023) hyperfixation (I cannot stop playing, I don't even change any of my choices while replaying it for the 197th time in a row).
So, here's my OC (She's literally just me but looks better and name is cooler)
I love her so much, my favourite girl failure lesbian <3
Not that anyone asked or needs, I'll info dump about her in two days (My birthday, yippee! I'm finally 18 ... Not so yippee...) and I'll draw her (maybe not in two days, but who knows)
1. its giving fae (the ones that steal ur name)
2. does she like vanilla and strawberry??? actually she might prefer red velvet.... or ube???? idk im not very good at picking flavors...
She loves vanilla! Has to be in the mood for red velvet (and it has to be a certain red velvet recipe) and is really picky with her strawberries (again has to be in the mood for only the fruit, she hates fake strawberry flavouring)
i can rest in peace knowing that a vanilla-haired character loves vanilla...
Mr Holden looks like he's done with life bruh 💀
(Also the context ain't helpin)
FRRR I laughed so hard when he did that face 😭
Is this the full game? When's dlc?
this is just the demo!! the full release is on 2025 and the dlc's are on 2026 probably
HELLO? WHY IS QIU'S SIDE PROFILE SO PERFECT???
qiu in general is perfect
oh yeah you're right LMAOO
who down voted me
Real, they are the perfect being istg
hi! I introduced myself using my name instead of my nickname for a few characters. Will I have the chance to introduce my nickname to them after meeting them for the first time??
sorry if the question sounds silly, I'm just curious;;
Not sure but ya can always go to your profile and choose who uses your nickname c:
okay, thanks!
its day 4. today we got Devin, Renee's older brother
he looks so fucking cute and adorable, I cant even describe it!!!! I just wanna hug him so tight he wont be able to breathe!!!
WHY IS THE ENTIRE FAMILY CUTE, DOES IT RUN IN THE BLOOD??
maybe? tho renee's and his father is kinda an 'eh' for me
im looking respectfully
he would definetly be the type of brother to help you defeat the final boss
His name is Devin rather than David, but yes, he is Ren's older brother! David is my real life older brother, haha.
oh sorry!! my bad I just get those 2 names mixed a lot
really good game! i enjoyed it a lot. still waiting for step 2 and 3 to come out... i really want to finish this game
finally introducing my scrimblo here... through doodles!! this is marin!! she/her prns in step one, he/him in step two. i've only drawn his step two design so far :]
my silly little overachiever,, might post more about him when I've developed him a bit better :]
HE'S SO CUTEEE AHHHHH
TYSM !!! literally the only mc I've ever used/come up with and I replay the game with him every time I am clearly incredibly attached ajajsj
HE 👏 IS 👏 SO 👏 PRECIOUS 👏
TYSMM HE IS !! i love my child 🫶
finally gathered the courage (ignore how i already replied to 2 comments today k???) to post my self insert
LEFT HANDED, LET'S GOO
ur also left handed???
*le gasp*
Weekend 5 of posting tamarack pics out of my tablet til game updates
I've ran out of special tamarack pics, so to the person or 2 that actually follows this I've got 2 options, switch to Qiu or simply post regular old screenshotsdecided to spice things up and posted a tamarack from my phone taken by my tablet
(Yes I got OL on both my phone and tablet that's a totally normal thing to do)
i suggest you switch to qiu :]
Here she is! My OL- NF oc !! Step one and step two !! <3
hey this might sound weird but does she like vanilla icecream??? idk cause she looks like she would like vanilla icecream w sprinkles on top
edit:nvm strawberry strawberry strawberry strawbe-
I was thinking apple crumble or some kind of cheesecake? Or maybe rocky road hahah or maybe.... cookies and cream??
My bet's mostly on apple crumble tho
holy crap youre right
tbh she would like both

RAHH THE FACT THAT THERE MAY BE ANOTHER UPDATE IN A FEW MONTHS OF A STEP 3 PREVIEWW?!?!?! DIKGMXWEKQD
WAIT HOW DID I NOT HEAR OF THIS??? GB PATCH YOURE SPOILING US

LMAOO, YOU SHOULD!!
WHAT?!?!?!?! OMG OMG FDSYDHBFCXHGSB
im gonna fucking cry if they do, i'll finaly be able to die happy
All of us are gonna rest in peace once that happens LMAOO
It wouldn't be in a few months, I'm afraid. It'd be six months or more from now. But yeah, I do hope to add a Step 3 preview before the full launch, if possible!
OOHH OKI OKI!!
5 more days til November 15th, which is exactly mid-november >:p
actually sooo excited,, i'm replaying the game all over again to cope with the wait :'] it'll def be worth it though !!
REAL OMGGG I CANNOT WAITT GHYFDGFBYXDSDU IM PLAYING AS WE SPEAK HELP
LOL THE OBSESSION IS REAL !! cannot believe I got so attached to a game that's only still in demo sighhh
RAHHH SAMEE I'M LITERALLY SO DEPRIVED RN
UGHHH REALLL
ok so here's my silly little character who's name is blurred out bc its my real actual dead name in step 1 plus my drawing of them (it's me when i was ten but cooler) i think she's a cutie
you made FULL BODY ART1?!?!?!?!
*cradles gently in arm*
I did! I only do full body art if i don't my proportions look wack lol thanks for the complement
so its day 3, im gonna talk about the last member of the boys club (and my favorite character in the whole game),Qiu
i love step 2 qiu's design, the hair is amazing, love the earings, and i never thought of qiu as a choker wearing type of person, yet they pulled it off so well
would lowkey kill to be able to pull off such an iconic androgynous look like theirs
thats a 5 dollar word you used right there lmao
Qiu is also my favourite character they're so cute and personally they !100% seem like they'd wear a choker
RAAHH I LOVE THEM SMMM best character frr
actually one of my favorite designs EVER. they look so cozy in that sweater, i'd like to steal it please
i'd just like to add that all the mcs being shared look absolutely amazing !! i am holding them gently in the palms of my hands,,
Is it just me or does like barely anyone use the preset cranberry color in their characters to match with Opal? Am I the only one noticing this?
wait, we can match with Opal?! how the hell did i not know this?!
Yes!! You can choose the cranberry color on the saved colors here:
i would kindly like to thank you both for enlightening me to this information
I've done a quite few playthroughs fully matching both eyes and hair color and it heals my soul
I got a new OC for ya'll life corners!!
this might seem odd but would she like pumpkin spice because she looks like she would like pumpkin spice things
infact, she does LOVE pumpkin spice !! :DD
thats good to know, and makes me wonder if qiu n tam would like pumpkin spice 🤔
*throws oc at you and runs*
Meet Elias, he's a little guy who doesn't really trust other kids due to him being bullied at his previous school for being thin and short.. He's usually reserved and a bit sultry in general but he's pretty nice if you manage to get past that.
For Elias, Tamarack is a 'they're so annoying but i still somehow like them' kind of friend and Qiu is a 'I love you and will actively show favoritism to you' kind of friend (he has a crush on them)
It has nothing to do with it but doesn't it happen to you that they are quiet out there and someone throws their oc at them and runs away?
yep, not like it's a bad thing 🤠👍
I DEMAND AN EXPLANATION OF WHO SHE IS AND WHY SHE LOOKS SO LIKE MY OLD PROFILE PHOTO ALSO BECAUSE HE'S SO CUTE PLEASE GB PATCH STOP MAKING SUCH CUTE CHARACTERS IYAAAAAAAA
*male scream*
thats serenity!! i think shes around a year younger than we are in the story?? also friends with tamarack, we'll see more of her in step 2 !! :> i love her smmm
EVEN HIS NAME IS SO CUTE😭
Wait it's that a new character??
I never saw her in any playthrough :0
yes !! we get to see her in step 2 and 3 (and probably 4 too!!)
may you settle on a profile pic, it is rather annoying(not really) searching someone that changed their PFP.
Also i guess it's time to admit that you are definitely more popular than me on the N&F page so, i declare i give up, val has won the( quite possibly one sided) rivalry, id say it was a close match but it was not at all.
YEIIIII I WIN...wait since when are we competing?
and I don't know why people here like me
remember the post long ago when i told you i was disappointed at you for not knowing about the November update? Since then.
I thought it was a joke and I simply commented as I normally would, although at the end of November I was not active since the amount of people there was overwhelming.
Her mother saw new opportunities in Golden Grove and decided to live there for a better life. Maddie has moved a lot in her life, so she got used to moving around. After moving to Golden Grove, she met Qiu and Tamarack. Initially, she didn't care to become friends with them, but later became best friends with them because of spending time with them for so long.
Fun fact: Maddie has a much stronger connection with animals than with humans because animals don't judge about what you think or say. This made her have an obsession with nature and wildlife.
Maddie only talks casually to people she feels comfortable with. While alone she acts (or with someone she trusts) she acts more herself.
Maddie has an extremely quiet personality, consistent with her appearance of looking like a mannequin. Many describe her as beautiful yet uncanny, as she was born with skin as white as paper, sharp facial features, paranoid eyes, long white hair, and very tall. Her appearance brought a lot of unwanted attention to her. Despite all that she was still the best hide-and-seek player known to man.
This led her to become very clingy to Qiu and Tamarack. She was especially clingy to Qiu, as they were popular too and she wanted to learn how to navigate popularity. Aside from this, she felt distant from them because she cared about how people thought of her while Qiu did not. Qiu gave up trying to please everyone, as Maddie hadn't done so herself.
Due to school stress, Maddie would lie to her mother to rebel against her. Lying about after school clubs and having after school tutoring. With having extra free time, she would hang out with Qiu on the days they skip their ballet classes or hangout in the forest. Maddie would remove all her frustration in the forest, shedding all her outer clothes and only wear her inner clothes which are tank top, and some shorts. Throughout the forest, she walks barefoot, climbs trees, and swims in a nearby lake near the forest. She got used to the cold autumn weather at Gloden Grove and became resistant to poking twigs, sharp rocks that got between their feet, and the feeling of dirt.
Fun Fact: Maddie nicknamed Qiu xióng which means bear in Chinese, as he's always wearing a fuzzy jacket. Tamarack's nickname is Biene which means bee, because when Tamarack was child, she was a very 'busy bee' in Maddie definition.
Maddie only calls out Qiu and Tamarck with their nicknames (yes even in public). This is because she feels like she can talk freely to them.
Maddie will fight physically and emotionally for Tamarck and Qiu. As Maddie sees them very dear to her, and if something wrong ever happens to them she assumes the problem could lead Qiu or Tamarck to disappear from her. This could cause problems if the fights are physical. Despite her looks, Maddie is surprisingly strong, and she can fight well, but she lacks self-control when fighting. Resulting in many consequences for her.
Cute fun fact: Maddie unknowingly would get very close and snuggly with Qiu and Tamarck when by their side. Hugging them without any thought, grab hold of their clothing, leading on them, or rub her head against them when she has a lot of energy. This sometimes comes off as teasing or flirting to many.
(IDK why I did this, but it was fun to write out my character in the game.)
thought about doing something nice, so from now, everyday i will make posts about how amazing and beautiful the character designs are. yesterday i talked about step 3 renee's design, so today i'll talk about the other side of the coin (kinda);step 2 baxter's design
i absolutely love it, he looks amazing in a sweater, love the white and black rings, love his hair. one of my favorite design's in OL:N&F
Hmmmm a White and Black ring huh.....gives me an Irl idea
....is that the wedding bells i hear .. Baxter I miss you so much I am going to play the Baxter dlc all over again:)))))))
I just LOVEE how different step 2 olnf baxter's design to step 2 olba baxter LMAOO
He is so handsome that it is impossible not to fall in love with him🗣🔥
i was actually introduced to olnf first so seeing how different he looks in olba was an experience lolol
oh my YOUR CHARECTER DESING IS SO COOL
At some point will they translate the game into Spanish? I like it a lot but it takes me a long time to translate the dialogues :'3
I'm really sorry, we aren't going to have the game translated to any other language. It's just too large of a script for that to be possible.
Played the other ourlife game like 20 times and cant wait for this one
lifecorns, i'm going for my 10th playthrough in the past week. am i perhaps... mentally ill
According to experts who are totally experts and not people I made up that's a normal behaviour towards ourlife game
According to me Mind the other cool guy that outran me to you.... that's normal behaviour i am at my Seventh can never have enough Children
according to me who's definitely not going insane while playing the game multiple times, I confirm that this behaviour is absolutely normal
Who are you? and why does he call you vel? Are you going to be my clone or something?
And no one aw go crazy here it is socially accepted to replay the game as many times as you want even if it is because of a different dialogue that you didn't know
BAHAHAHSJ nono but the similarities MIGHT get us mistaken for eachother, who knows,,,
confuse us? Whoever does it is going to make me angry... and I will continue to love him... BUT I WILL DO IT WHILE VERY ANGRY
I see that the majority calmed down after the warning but they are still excited hahaha
I'm glad to see them happy
Pats pats for everyone,enyway goodbaaaay
what warning?
I was referring to the notice
Seeing this character gave me some Feelings of Slight Fear and Hunger
wait.... YOU SAID FEAR AND HUNGER?!
NOOO THAT'S FOUL OLIVIA !!😭😭
i LOVE, absolutely adore Renee's step 3 design
Me in my way to Download the Entirety of OL because of y'all
omg WHO'S RENEE AND WHY THEY LOOK SO GOOD????
renee is darren
*Audible confusion noises*
I accounted for Every Possibility 7 times ....I wasn't yet ready for this
She's Darren!! She turns trans in step 3 ^^
AHHH TRUE TRUEE SHE'S SO PRETTYYYY
Seriously... now I think twice before saying something about Darren
OMG SHE'S SO CUTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I can't wait for the game to finish completely 〒▽〒
I saw a lot of people posting their ocs sooo here's mine!
I can't wait for the next update! Does anyone know when it is?
mid-late november !!
Oohh, thank you!😌
