Sometimes! But it'll be easy to miss that kind of thing because it'll have to be very specifically doing the opposite of something you've done in the past. Just any old change in mood/action won't be noted. It'll be considered as the MC having more than one side to their personality and that's normal.
Finished the demo, that's too bad Darren isn't a LI I like his character he's interesting. Don't get me wrong Qui and Tamarack are precious they are sweet i love their dynamic but sadly i don't feel any attachment to them like I do with Cove tbh it's so much different than the first game. But that's okay even though I will skip this one I wish u all the best for the development of this game. Have a good day you are amazing devs. I always grateful for make a character like Cove for us ❤
Wow ! I came from OL1 and I fell in love with the story and characters. But this game got me to. I really enjoyed the characters dynamics and personalities. They're well rounded and relatable. Tamarack and Qiu are both sweet in their own way. Thus, befriending them seems really natural and cool. I also liked seeing Baxter here as I liked him too.
Besides, being able to customize our MC this much was so great. I was okay with stories where I can't see my character because in the other way it was awkward. As I like creating my own MC this was fun ! I also like the way you depict various kind of characters in term of sexuality, personality or even the kind of family they grew up in. It's beautifully done and it matters.
Thank you for this astounding game. I don't know how many efforts you put in this but it was definitely worth it.
Right now we're not planning on having side character story DLCs like the first game. Maybe that will change much further into development, but it's not a for sure thing.
Oh I'm sorry, I didn't add the link. But the instructions are just to download the PC version of the demo and use a file unzipper to open the zipped folder you downloaded!
ok, this game is absolutely gold. Honestly, I don't usually like visual novels and avoid them at all costs (I used to play some a few years ago but got kinda tired, wanted games that are more "gamey" and less "comic-y"), but this one got me for some reason. I'm really anxious to see the complete version of the game. Hope it will be out soon.
The demo was great! It's so much different than the first game while managing to keep the same feeling. It's also already improved over the first game in many ways. I can't wait to be able to play through the whole release! Also great to see Baxter again, and as a kid. It's nice to have something familiar from the first game.
The engine we use is sometimes falsely flagged as dangerous because it uses Python. You'd have to turn off your scanner and download it if that's happening. Or you could try downloading it using the Itch app instead of the webpage.
Qui and Tamarack are so precious! I fell in love with the story and the characters <3 I had so much fun with the demo, I'm really excited for the official release!!
I had so much fun with just the demo. Can't wait for the whole game to be finished!!
Qiu and Tamarack are so cute. We're gonna be the best of friends! 💞
Also, seeing Baxter as a little kid right after finishing his DLC was a really nice surprise. I wish so much we could have had more with him in the other game. 😭
Hey, just want to give you a heads up that you forgot to check the OS boxes next to each download, so right now it's impossible for players to download the demo via the itch app :)
Hello! I have a question. What's the differences between Admiring - Accepting - Doting? I'm not sure what to choose because I'm not sure what they each mean exactly for the relationship.
Admiring means you look up to them and think they can do anything, doting means you think you need to look out for them and take care of them, accepting means you treat them like an equal!
Our Life: Beginnings & Always only had male love interests, Our Life: Now & Forever will only have female and non-binary love interests. The MC in either game can be whatever gender the player wants!
Im wondering if there is a certain release date yet and im very excited i love the two so much even if Darren was a bit mean but overall i love all the characters!
I hope aswell that the full game will be free because some people like me cant donate anything sadly and im not alloud to so it would be a shame if others cousnt aswell and the came cost something it would be sad
Since im not full englisch i coudnt read everything here on the wepsite but i was wondering if step 2 and step 3 are out yet because i already played step 1 and i thought it was out already😅
It's just a demo right now! Step 1 isn't done, and Steps 2 and 3 haven't even been started yet. I'm sorry, it's gonna be a long time before it's actually out.
The creator released the last DLC for the first game just 2 days ago, so it is expected that this game will get more attention from here on out. If it's anything like the first game I believe that it'll be released in steps after the prologue is completed. That or she'll update whenever there's enough progress made to even show.
In short, though, the full release is far from now.
If you're talking about for this game, no, not as of right now. It's a long process, but currently they're still working on the first step. I think an important thing to take into account is that they've been working on the first game this whole time, so that's why it's taking even longer. But patience is key, and I'm more than sure it'll be worth it when it's done some time into the future!! :)
If you're not, then they have a whole other game with different characters that you can play with all the content released for it out right now.
will the characters notice if you have a big personality change throughout the steps? like if you go from being really nice to really rude or the other way around?
I really love this game. the story, the ost, especially the characters and how the games story takes place in autumn my favorite season 😊 hope an update will come soon 🥰
I recently downloaded the new our life: now and forever 2022 expansion demo and something's off.
Whenever I try to go to log, an error shows up. And after that, this glitch spreads to other features like the character's info page. I don't what's wrong or how to fix it.
Are you trying to load a file from an older version? Sometimes save files don't work in newer builds. If this is your first time playing the game, it might be a compatibility issue with the device you're using.
i have already played our life always and forever and i loved it played it so many times! i have played the demo of this one and it is AMAZING you guys did a great job, i cant wait till the full game releases!
I love your game! Me and my friend were wondering if it would be allowed to use our in-game characters as profile pictures, and I figured I'd ask here!
I just gotta come back every once in a while and obsess over this game. I don’t know how long it has been but I’m here to say I love this game ❤️❤️. All right, I’ll come back in a bit ╭( ・ㅂ・)و ̑̑
I can't wait for this!! Being able to see the school adds a level of nostalgia in my opinion, reminds me of when I was younger and the excitement for the first day.

Your game is so underatted! I was wondering,when is full game with the chractars as adults or more episodes coming?
The demo will be updated with more scenes in late September or early October! The full game won't be out until 2025.
will any characters notice if you do something out of character in the future?

i can't open the file again :')

I NEED THIS TO COME OUT!!
oh my gosh, this is fantastic! i love it so much :))
but i have a question. is darren a love interest or something? will he get a DLC like baxter and derek did? i really think he'd suit my mc.
Right now we're not planning on having side character story DLCs like the first game. Maybe that will change much further into development, but it's not a for sure thing.
How do i download this on Chromebook the demo i mean
Just follow the instructions for the Linux version of the demo!
This might be a stupid question but where would i find those instructions?
Oh I'm sorry, I didn't add the link. But the instructions are just to download the PC version of the demo and use a file unzipper to open the zipped folder you downloaded!
Im not the best at doing these things but i unzipped the file and now im not sure what to do
You can click on the Our Life NF folder to open it and inside will be a button you can click to launch the demo!

I tried to download the Windows demo but i keep getting a virus error, i honestly dont know what to do.

sobbing, crying, throwing up, i'm gonna off myself when will the offical game release already
Hey, just want to give you a heads up that you forgot to check the OS boxes next to each download, so right now it's impossible for players to download the demo via the itch app :)
Oh, thank you! I added that.

Thank you so much!
totally judging a book by it cover, but is this one more female based? as it seems always and forever is mre male and male based?
Our Life: Beginnings & Always only had male love interests, Our Life: Now & Forever will only have female and non-binary love interests. The MC in either game can be whatever gender the player wants!
I wonder if this game will release before Gta 6 is announced 🤔
Im wondering if there is a certain release date yet and im very excited i love the two so much even if Darren was a bit mean but overall i love all the characters!
Glad you're excited! There's no release date yet, but it will take years to finish. It maybe will come out sometime in 2025.
So the next update will be around 2024 maybe ? I'm just asking because i'm so excited for the official finished game !
The next demo update will be between September-November 2023. I don't know which month for sure yet!
OH MY GOD yes !!!! Thank you so much guys !!!!!
No problem ^^
so exited for the full game! i cant wait!
I hope aswell that the full game will be free because some people like me cant donate anything sadly and im not alloud to so it would be a shame if others cousnt aswell and the came cost something it would be sad
Thank you so much this relief's me know knowing it will be free

is there a full step 1 game?
If you're talking about for this game, no, not as of right now. It's a long process, but currently they're still working on the first step.

The full release likely isn't gonna happen until 2025. It's got a long way to go, haha.
i hope i didnt forget about this game after i graduated
i will earn my own money by then, and i will buy the dlc
time to invent a time travelling machine
great concept
intresting storyline
beautiful artstyle
Best game ever
will the characters notice if you have a big personality change throughout the steps? like if you go from being really nice to really rude or the other way around?
Yes, it maybe will.
They said yeah but not all that time they might just assume you're upset about somethinf
I really love this game. the story, the ost, especially the characters and how the games story takes place in autumn my favorite season 😊 hope an update will come soon 🥰

Am I the only one who experienced this?
Are you trying to load a file from an older version? Sometimes save files don't work in newer builds. If this is your first time playing the game, it might be a compatibility issue with the device you're using.
I am screaming in pure excitement for this full game. especially after seeing a familiar face...
really wanted to play this but whenever i try to install it from the app, it says this:

Sometimes the Itch app just doesn't work, I'm afraid. Downloading directly from the website shouldn't give that error!
i have already played our life always and forever and i loved it played it so many times! i have played the demo of this one and it is AMAZING you guys did a great job, i cant wait till the full game releases!
I love your game! Me and my friend were wondering if it would be allowed to use our in-game characters as profile pictures, and I figured I'd ask here!
Yes, you can! I'm so glad you enjoy it.
