Hey, I don't know if I can ask this here, it probably has been answered on Patreon already, but will there be more options for hairstyles? I feel like every option of back hair looks kind of weird when you choose a short hair option for the front. English is not my first language, so it's a bit hard to explain, but like when you choose a short hair for the front, almost every option of back hair looks wrong when put together. I was trying to make a boy with a medium hairstyle, like the one Cove uses, but always ended up looking weird. Another doubt is if we will have the option to choose Highlights for the hair, it looks more natural than choosing the entire front hair of one color and then the back hair of another x.x
There will be new hair options in the future! But there won't be highlights. There's no way to add individual streaks of color to each of the dozens of hair pieces, aha.
oh goodness meeee i really want to enter the kickstarter page but my email and password doesnt match even the password and the email is right 😭😭😭 but i'm excited about this game fr 😭😭😭

What if in our life now and forever there were a random scene where we were singing and dancing to the music on the radio with of course our trusty hairbrush then Qiu (if you chose him) was just watching us laughing silently? + This could be like a special scene for Qiu.
I loved this, haha. In the first game, we could decide our MC talents, like singing, etc., I wonder if we will have this in the new game too. It would be cool if it was expanded a bit and the characters remembered that we can do those things.
this is most likely my second time commenting here, but damn, this game is fire, I just love everything about the game (I'm a big fan of character customization type of games) I love the art, the story and most importantly the way we can make our own characters, I just love everything, can't wait for all the other steps!🤙.
I love this game and i really like all the characters!! ^^ And i also have a question, when will step 2 be released? Will it be released with step 3 or separately?
i'm going to be honest when i first found this game i was bored and just wanted something to play i thought i would play this for a bit and forget about it later but after playing i surprised that that was a demo it so cool and now i'm here wishing you the best of luck and just waiting in anticipation for the game cant wait bye
Do the decisions we make have an impact on the entire story, or do they only affect how the chapter/step in which we make them unfolds? I hope I have explained myself clearly :/
The choices you make impact later scenes. If you decide you don't like something, you'll dislike it forever (unless you change your mind later) and people will know that. Things you do or say can become a running joke. The dynamics you have with other characters will be remembered by the game and characters will treat you differently because of it. But the choices are all about who your MC is and the relationships they have. There's no plot that can be altered with how you live your life.
This is a slice of life story about growing up through disconnected vignettes, aha. You can do different activities or choose who you spend time with based on your choices, but the game doesn't have a linear plot.
This is so good I'm almost mad for playing the demo. Like how could you hook me so hard and still be so far off. Great game, really looking forward to it.
"Hey, hi! Can you tell me if the Beta build available on Patreon is something separate from the beta that will be launched next month, or will that beta contain this one and be bigger?"
Right now the beta has everything that will be in the public demo early next month. So for a short time the beta will stop having extra content. But in mid to late October even more new content will come out for the beta so it will once again be longer than the public demo.
Hello! I love this game already, I can't wait for more! I just have a question, Is it possible for even our mother to call us by our nickname or is it always our names that she uses? not trying to be rude, it just feel weird to be called by the supposedly original masculine name of the mc after I made sure their nickname was feminine. I hope that made sense...
Right now the mom uses your first name because there's not a good place to decide what she calls you before she has to call your name in the story. It might change later in development. I'm glad you've enjoyed it!
It seemed almost impossible to surpass the first game...but this one totally has done it and it isn't even finished yet!! In OL1, I loved the summer atmosphere because it reminds me of my country, but here in OL2 I really love the autumn scenery because autumn isn't very noticeable were I live. Out of all the customization options, I think bein able to customize colors is just FAN-TAS-TIC! It is so much fun that I cant practically stop makin new MCs ^w^/ Oh! And the music is reaaaally nice and relaxing. I have played this game around my dad who doesn't know or even like videogames, but still, he said he liked the music! And that's really impressive, hey.
Qiu and Tamarack are simply so funny and adorable! I cant wait to see what kind of adventures we will jo trough with them! As always, my friend and I will be waiting patiently for it, so good luck and keep the great work!
ABSOLUTELY ADORED IT!!! Looking forward to the next update. Have replayed this demo several times and will never get bored. Will there be more routes like with Baxter? Just a quick question!!!
hi! as far as i know, there havent been any mentions of alternate routes yet, but it may be a possibility someday in the future (the devs said that they want to wait until OL:N&F is further along in its development before promising any more dlcs).
however, if you wanted to have a route with Baxter, there is a completed dlc for him in the first game, Our Life: Beginnings and Always! (aka OL1) the mc does not meet him until Step 3, but they can have a romantic (or platonic) route with him if they'd like to :)
**this also means that Baxter probably won't be getting a second dlc in OL2, since it would overlap with the first game's potential storyline
This was an absolutely amazing visual novel, even though it was just demo i felt emotionally connected to all characters in this game! Im not afraid to say this is probably the best visual novel game ive ever played. The diversity and small details in this game make it all that much better, im extremely excited for the full game to come out! Keep up the good work!
I've been interested in checking it out but I'm personally more interested in games with female romance options stories. I might check it out regardless though sense I enjoyed this one so much!
Best game I have ever played in my whole life time. The story line is so cute and makes me want to see more. The art is spectacular and all the different options you get to choose through out the game are so cool. The pronoun settings and etc. make me feel so happy and make the experience more enjoyable. I will be constantly checking for updates and recommending to everyone I can!!<3
Yeah, I doubt they'll make a DLC or romance route for him here considering we had one in OL1, and he stresses how he thinks about his childhood friends sometimes but ultimately has 0 desire to go back at all

Hey guys I'm confused what step 4 I thought step 3 was adulthood
Yes,Both Steps 3 & 4 take place when you're an adult,however, step 3 the MC is 18,and step 4 the MC is 22.
When is the full game coming?
Steps 1-3 will be released all together in 2025
I don't understand if this is sarcasm or not 😭😭
it's not, gamedevs literally answered it a few comments down below

We all may wait patiently for step 2 brothers and sistas💪

Steps 1-3 will be released all together in 2025! I'm afraid we won't be releasing the Steps one at a time.

But the choices are all about who your MC is and the relationships they have. There's no plot that can be altered with how you live your life.
So, our decisions only change how other characters relate to our MC based on what we do or say? The game's plot is something that doesn't change.
This is a slice of life story about growing up through disconnected vignettes, aha. You can do different activities or choose who you spend time with based on your choices, but the game doesn't have a linear plot.
This is really good! The story was great, the extra details help, no really downsides other then the skip button usually doesn't work, good job!
This is so good I'm almost mad for playing the demo. Like how could you hook me so hard and still be so far off. Great game, really looking forward to it.

Okay many thanks <3
This is an amazingly charming game that had me smiling like a fool please keep up the wonderful work and I look forward to your full release.
<3
¿Is there already a release date for the full game?
Steps 1-3 will be coming out in Fall 2025!
Sorry, but I have another question. What will the update of the demo include?
It will include the rest of the Step 1 prologue, one Step 1 Moment, and a small preview into Step 2.
Hello! I love this game already, I can't wait for more! I just have a question, Is it possible for even our mother to call us by our nickname or is it always our names that she uses? not trying to be rude, it just feel weird to be called by the supposedly original masculine name of the mc after I made sure their nickname was feminine.

AAAAAAAAAAA
I can't wait for the game to come out, I've already played the demo about 20 times
So excited!
I just started today and I love it omg
when the demo comes out im probably gonna freak out, i cant wait! fall/Autumn is my favorite season and eeeee!
OLBA was summer themed. OLNF is autumn. I’m curious Is it possible spring, rainy, winter themed OL in future?
Btw my head is filled with OLBA scenarios!loved it and excited for this one too^^
nope, sadly apparently this is the last game of the 'our life' franchise. after this'll be project W's time
I see 😮💨 well atleast we got to witness these amazing OL games and dlcs.
totally! :3 so grateful
I dunno if this was answered somewhere already but is the game releasing in steps like the first OL game or is it going to fully release at once?
The first three Steps will release together and the Step 4 epilogue will come out later. That's how it worked for the first OL!
Ohhh I got into the first ol when step 4 wasn't out so I just assumed the steps were released separately. Tysm for a reply!!
No problem :D
It seemed almost impossible to surpass the first game...but this one totally has done it and it isn't even finished yet!!

i love this game, the artstyle is super cute, it cheered me up a bit, im not in the best mental state rn, thank you.
Ive not been keeping up with the updates, have there been any additions past the meeting up in class point?
Not yet! The next demo update is coming in early October.

This was an absolutely amazing visual novel, even though it was just demo i felt emotionally connected to all characters in this game!

have you played the first game? its similar and also amazing
I've been interested in checking it out but I'm personally more interested in games with female romance options stories. I might check it out regardless though sense I enjoyed this one so much!
same tbh but i still fell in love with it lol

Wait... They mentioned baxter in one of the teasers. Why is that monochrome man stalking me even across whole other games.
I believe he grew up here but will not be a romance route as he moves away? I don't fully remember
Yeah, I doubt they'll make a DLC or romance route for him here considering we had one in OL1, and he stresses how he thinks about his childhood friends sometimes but ultimately has 0 desire to go back at all
