I probably already posted a comment a few months ago to tell you how amazing your game is but I want to say it again: this is definitely the best visual novel I've ever played and I recommend it to EVERYONE, you definitely won't be disappointed.
PS: I'm really looking forward to the release of the DLCs and step 4 :)
This game was EXTREMELY cute, and I adore the premise. It was a nice, laid back little story that I could play in small bites, and I appreciate that. There are some really sweet, touching moments that I adored. The world was seriously unrealistic at times, but that was because everyone was trying to be caring and supporting, and it just felt nice.
That being said, I think I found just about every character more interesting than Cove. Like, he was alright, but I would much rather have hung out with, like, anyone else. I was devastated when Shiloh moved, and cried over seeing him again. I was highly disappointed that there wasn't more of Baxter--he was absolutely my favorite. Even Derek was adorbs, and while I wasn't initially interested because he seemed too young, I was intrigued after the time jump and wanted to see him more grown up. I even liked the girls, my sister, and the parents. I would totally just spend time with them! Elizabeth's growth was very touching!
Cove's parents, however... I just didn't care. His dad, especially, made me uncomfortable. And with my playthrough where I wasn't even friends with Cove, a lot of the scenes made no sense and were just bad. And that wasn't my first playthrough--I did a friendship run first, where I was very protective of Cove. In the second, I was more honest with myself and we just ended up not friends. I didn't hate him, we just have nothing in common, despite how his personality changes depending on user input (which gave me ... very mixed feelings. On the one hand, it felt wrong to try to shape him into what I wanted, so I tried to let him just develop however he would. On the other hand, you see how that turned out for me lol). I never tried to romance him.
So Cove and the setting were my two big struggles. I have never seen the ocean. I could never get into Cove's love of it, or his sportiness. I'm a bookworm that grew up in the woods in the middle of nowhere, and I couldn't figure out how to feel about living in a town like that. With neighbors. And pavement. And a beach. And a park. And a grassy field or meadow thing. The setting just wasn't for me. Venturing off into town alone as a child, being at the beach all the time, and the fact that the game seems to think veganism is just a diet and I was not allowed to voice discomfort at other times (like Cove's fish).
Don't get me wrong, I appreciated being allowed to be vegan at all. Something that this game did extremely well was be open to different viewpoints constantly, even when it didn't seem to matter or affect the scene. It was a thrilling roleplay choice! But it also made it difficult for the writers and coders, I'm sure, and it shows at times where they would assume something that I disagreed with or had earlier even contradicted, like the fact that I love school and hate summer. And the magician or clown or whatever it was. The story forced my
character to enjoy it, when I HATE magic shows and circuses. Sometimes you just don't think of everything, I get it, it just made me soooo uncomfortable.
All in all though, it was such an ambitious project, and I really did enjoy it! I understand it must have been so difficult, and you can't please everybody. I still am looking forward to the updates, and will certainly be playing whatever I can get ahold of. I don't mean to complain, I just hope my input is helpful--maybe for future projects? I hope I didn't hurt anyone's feelings, I just wanted to be honest! Thank you for making such a wonderful game!
Although I do not agree with you, I do appreciate that you wanted to share your honest thoughts! Everyone has their own opinions, and I was happy to hear yours! I hope you have a wonderful day and I am glad you enjoyed some of the game! :D :) <3
Ah! Hold on for just a bit longer, hun! Apparently in Step 4, which is going to be released sometime this year, we move in with him! Just hang on for a little bit lol! :)
Can you let me know what device you're on? Is it a Mac or Android? And are you downloading it through the Itch.io App or directly through the webpage? You might want to try doing the opposite (using the app if you're not, downloading directly if you are using the app).
I got it working thank you! Turns out I just had to remove a lot of storage for space for the game! I came here to say that I absolutely love your work. The ability to choose everything that's relatable to you, sandwich options, being able to say what I like physically and romantically, even being able to play hangman! I love the personal options and personality love being able to let a game know what I like, down to the very specifics! You are ABSOLUTELY my favorite visual novel creator! If I wasnt flat broke living in a trailer I'd SO buy the DLC content! I really really wish I could actually. :'( Maybe one day... But you definitely have a customer for life! I havent been able to sleep because I'm so immersed in the game. I just wish there were a girl version of cove I could be with without having to buy one, for people like me. Anyways thank you so much for this life changing creation. I've never been able to fully read a visual novel without skipping through alot or deleting it. For a person like me with ADHD and dyslexia it's really hard for me to read and stay immersed and enjoy it. So definitely pat yourself on the back!!! :) only option I wish there was, was being able to up the size of the font, i have eye problems and no glasses sadly haha so sometimes it hard to read the words even with the thickest outline. I was going to ask you if you knew anymore VNs like this one :) for when I get done with this one. I'd love to be able to find more like this when I'm done. I feel like I'll be lost when it's over haha. Thank you for making my not so amazing life, a little better. :) You're amazing! I'm personally an artist of 11 years and aspiring to try to get to be able to make my own stuff one day when I get the money to, or even just star in a bit of a voice acting role of my dreams. ^-^ Anyways, thank you so much for this, and the fast replies! You're a great creator. :) thank you. Maybe one day when you have the ability you could create a full free vn with multiple free dating options like a dating sim! ^-^ I'll definitely keep in touch with your work to find out! Thank you again. Have a good day!
I also love the connection I feel with each person. Especially cove and the family, irl I dont have the closest or happiest family life, so its really nice to feel apart of it.. And sometimes irl when in upset I wish I could actually hop on and talk to cove to feel better. That would actually be a wonderful side project for the people who got dependent on cove or Elizabeth or the moms. :) it could be for anxiety, depression, family issues or really anything you can think of! Just a thought. :)
I love this game soooo MUCH, it's amazing. I cried and laughed and the plot... I'm speechless. you know what, I'm gonna make a fan art or a animation. Idk, but Cove is so sweet.
Easily my favorite romance game. I love a good plot, but this insane attention to detail in dialogue and character dynamics really brings the best out of the genre. I was completely blindsided by how things that you could say no to or that could have played out differently would get referenced, or how being in the relationship would change parts of a scene. Can't wait to see/buy more of this.
Dang this is SO GOOD! I cried, I laughed, I blushed like crazy in some cute scenes, I love how natural and cute the narrative is, even when it touches important subjects. I love Cove's personality (shy Cove is my love!), I love our moms, Liz, the whole Holden family, everything! I'm so grateful I came across this game and I'll be 100% supporting you guys 💕
Quick question: Once the game is fully done with the dlc, will there every be NSFW content added (obviously in the adult stages of the game) or I should say slightly more suggestive scenes? Love their romance/friendship just wish their was slightly more when it comes to the sexual relationship between them and not just the emotional
They said that there was a NSFW dlc planned, but it will come apart of the whole game for those that prefer don't see that type of content, it will be published on patreon, and maybe other platform for those that can't use patreon
Honestly, if you are looking for content like that play Depraved Awakenings, or Acting Lessons. All the sex you could ever want in those two game alone! Acting Lessons is also a beautiful Visual Novel.
If you can still access your old save files from the Itch app then you just have to copy the save files into your game folder. It's usually this directory: D:\Program (or wherever you installed your Itch app program)\Itch\Games\our-life\OurLife-1.1-pc\game and there you should put your old save files (just copy/paste the saves folder).
If you don't use the itch app than it's probably somewhere in your appdata files. Usually C:\Users\PC\AppData\Roaming\Renpy\Our Life\ I hope this helps.
There is no NSFW content in the game or in the DLCS. However, on their Patreon page they will be releasing a NSFW moment, and that will be something you can choose to purchase and add to the game. I hope this helps.
i really really want to download this game bc my friends told me it was amazing but everytime i extract from the compressed file it just becomes a file folder, am i doing sometime wrong? and can anyone help?
That's what it's meant to do, you have to double click into the file folder and double click on the icon that says "Our Life" and in the type column it says "application."
I never write comments on Itch.io but this game is so crazy good. I downloaded the game thinking not much of it, but I've put several hours into it, had tears in my eyes at certain moments, laughed and really felt good about this story of growing up. Thank you for making this <3
I played this game for hours. I really like to make the heart feels. Can't wait for Step 4! Do you guys have a rough estimate of when it will come out?
Awesome! Also, my love of this game makes me want to download XOXO droplets and I just realized the Easter Eggs in Our Life. Is it reasonable to assume that the two games take place in the same world?
I just wanted to thank GBPatch for making such an inclusive and well-written story. I nearly cried at the family moment in step 2 as I'm an adoptee too. I thought that part was written really respectfully and did a good job at conveying the complicated feelings that go along with being adopted which I haven't seen much at all in media. Thank you again for a great story and for providing it for free! I can't wait for the future updates :)
I really really do love that game. Honestly I don't really know how to say this but that game is one of the best visual novels I ever read. It's really calming and beautiful. I was so sad when I finished it but who cares...I'm going to play it again 💙
i love this game sm, cove is honestly a really well made character along with all the other ones. what i really liked though was probaby the “growing” moment in step 2, going more into our gender and sexuality while cove kind of reassured us. definitely a great sim. i can’t wait for step 4
I've played a LOT of otomes and visual novels over the years and its been some time since I enjoyed one quite as much as this. There are so many choices that the whole experience feels so personal. The relationship progression is wonderful and I felt so giddy with happiness during parts of this game. Cove is a treasure, he really develops from his childhood self and I am so glad I got to experience it. The cast is overall wonderful and I really got to care for them.
On a slightly different note, thanks GB Patch for allowing players to be Demisexual in this game. I nearly cried when Cove told me he was Demi in my play-through, because its so rare to find that portrayed in any form of media. Sorry this is so long, but I adore this game and eagerly await the Step 4 story upon its release.
In all honesty, I did not really know what demi-sexuality was before playing this game. From my experience, it was a very positive learning experience! I am bisexual, and once it came to the "sexuality exploration" part in step 2, I was really glad that Cove did not freak out or overreact in any way. He just smiled and acknowledged it, like if you were to say that you were straight. Just a small detail I liked, haha. I am glad that you felt validated during your playthrough, and I hope you have a wonderful day! :D
Literally my favorite game. I only played it to see what it was and oh my gosh. I've never been so obsessed with something like this. The story and the characters are amazing. You can see the development of them both and it only makes you want to play. I cried when I got to the end of it and I can't wait to see what Step 4 and I know I'll probably cry again.
Hi! My 12 year old sister loves visual novels and wants me to download this game but i am sure if there isn't anything 18+ so i just wanted to ask if is there is any nude content. Sorry for my english, i am still learning :-)
Hi! There is no nude content in this game! They have some scenes where it gets romantic and maybe a little suggestive, but other than that its good to go!
So, after playing this game over, and over, and over again, I just wanted to say that it is an amazing game. I absolutely love it. The characters are so easy to fall in love with, the story is well-written and entertaining, the art is beautiful. Plus it was super fun to see little snippets of some of the characters from XOXO, which made my day ;) Honestly, I adore everything about this game and will probably be playing it for a long time to come. Thank you for all the hardwork put into making it!
I thought it'd be easier to ask here instead of Steam. This pop up showed when I tried to get on the game today. Is this fixable without redownloading- and will it save data?
I'm sorry for the trouble! Do you have any virus scanners or firewall stuff on your computer? It says the game loader isn't there and we have heard of that happening by a computer thinking it's unsafe. It's a false flag, though. Some programs just think Python, our programing language, is suspicious. Seeing if you can temporarily turn scanners off or telling it to trust the file might help.
It's also possible something just went strange with the install and uninstalling/reinstalling will fix it.
Your save data won't go away even if you uninstall unless you seek it out and delete it, totally refresh your computer back to prior state from before you played, or have a crash that causes file memory loss. Let me know if any of that helps or not!
I redownloaded and started it up a bunch of times till it worked. I was worried about the DLC's but they're here so that's mainly all that matters. Thanks for getting back to me!
I played this game a couple weeks ago and I've completely fallen head over heels with Cove, y'all need to go easy on us. This is such a beautiful game, all the art is top-notch and the storyline is solid, not to mention the easily distinguishable personalities of all the characters. I'm sorry if I'm ranting, but Our Life just makes me so happy :')
Also, Pamela and Noelani seem like the world's best moms!! (i was obsessed with knowing the moms' names, haha...)
your characters were nicely written, and the scenarios were realistic and obviously thought through! it wasn't cringe or cliche, so I really enjoyed this!
i was so happy when cove said he was demisexual i nearly cried. I'm also aspec, and he's one of the first characters i've seen that are canonically ace. I love it and him so much. Especially exploring that aspect in a visual novel, "dating" type game, is such a great subversion of the trope. Also, as a grayromantic person playing it myself, it put me super at ease, as opposed to a really aggressive protagonist that is harder to relate to/engage with.
hey just created an account to comment for help-- for some reason i cant continue my game because of an 'uncaught exception'?? and something like 'file is not a zipfile'? how can i fix this?? do i have to start again?
I think there was a problem when unzipping the file. I'd recommend delete the current build (you won't lose your progress or saves), redownloading the game, and unzipping it with WinZip or 7Zip. Hopefully just trying again will go better and the error won't happen again.

No no no it can’t be over!!! ;-; I thought I was gonna be able to move in with cove for a satisfying ending completely;-; agh. I’m so hopeful!
Ah! Hold on for just a bit longer, hun! Apparently in Step 4, which is going to be released sometime this year, we move in with him! Just hang on for a little bit lol! :)
I love this game! Looking forward to step 3 DLC and step 4! Take your time for updating the game, stay safe!
I love this game so much <3 :) I am looking for step 3 and 4. <3 :)

Is the 4th summer going to be free, or will we have to pay for it?
I have a feeling that it'll be free. After all, we didn't have to pay for any of the original steps. :p
Hey I got a new laptop and I downloaded this game again but how to I get my old save file on to my new laptop?
If you can still access your old save files from the Itch app then you just have to copy the save files into your game folder. It's usually this directory: D:\Program (or wherever you installed your Itch app program)\Itch\Games\our-life\OurLife-1.1-pc\game and there you should put your old save files (just copy/paste the saves folder).
If you don't use the itch app than it's probably somewhere in your appdata files. Usually C:\Users\PC\AppData\Roaming\Renpy\Our Life\
I hope this helps.
yep I did it with my old laptop that had the save files and used my phone to copy them on them and then to my new laptop
That's good to hear! I hope you can continue to play with your old save files now! This game is the best!
A question. On PC I can go back by some replies with mouse wheel roll. Is it somehow possible on Android?
Is there nsfw content
There is no NSFW content in the game or in the DLCS. However, on their Patreon page they will be releasing a NSFW moment, and that will be something you can choose to purchase and add to the game. I hope this helps.
AHHHH i almost cried at the end, i love Cove and the story
This was seriously so beautiful, thank you so much creating the game!<3
i really really want to download this game bc my friends told me it was amazing but everytime i extract from the compressed file it just becomes a file folder, am i doing sometime wrong? and can anyone help?
That's what it's meant to do, you have to double click into the file folder and double click on the icon that says "Our Life" and in the type column it says "application."
aaa ok thanks so much
You're welcome!
I LOVE THIS GAME AND COVE IS PRECIOUS *shout out to the world
I need some help with the save files tho. Is there a way to transfer my save files on android to windows?
I never write comments on Itch.io but this game is so crazy good. I downloaded the game thinking not much of it, but I've put several hours into it, had tears in my eyes at certain moments, laughed and really felt good about this story of growing up. Thank you for making this <3
I played this game for hours. I really like to make the heart feels. Can't wait for Step 4! Do you guys have a rough estimate of when it will come out?
It should be out around summer of 2021 ^^!
Awesome! Also, my love of this game makes me want to download XOXO droplets and I just realized the Easter Eggs in Our Life. Is it reasonable to assume that the two games take place in the same world?
It definitely does, Shiloh from step one is actually one of the Li in XOXO
thanks for the game, it's really really great. Feels like a bubble in time to play, can't wait for the dlcs 3 and 4 ! Thanks again for your hard work.
I just would like to know... when will be able to buy part 3?🥳😳 just wondering
It'll be a couple more months c:
thanks a lot. i already have part 1 and 2 so i will looking forward to it
I just wanted to thank GBPatch for making such an inclusive and well-written story. I nearly cried at the family moment in step 2 as I'm an adoptee too. I thought that part was written really respectfully and did a good job at conveying the complicated feelings that go along with being adopted which I haven't seen much at all in media. Thank you again for a great story and for providing it for free! I can't wait for the future updates :)
Hi GB Patch I'd love to Voiceover on your projects one day! Here's a link to my voicereel https://clairecalverley.weebly.com/voice-over-clips.html
Have a great day and thanks for listening! My email is clairecalverley@yahoo.com if you wanna get in touch :)
I really really do love that game. Honestly I don't really know how to say this but that game is one of the best visual novels I ever read. It's really calming and beautiful. I was so sad when I finished it but who cares...I'm going to play it again 💙

Hi! My 12 year old sister loves visual novels and wants me to download this game but i am sure if there isn't anything 18+ so i just wanted to ask if is there is any nude content. Sorry for my english, i am still learning :-)
Hi! There is no nude content in this game! They have some scenes where it gets romantic and maybe a little suggestive, but other than that its good to go!
So, after playing this game over, and over, and over again, I just wanted to say that it is an amazing game. I absolutely love it.

I thought it'd be easier to ask here instead of Steam. This pop up showed when I tried to get on the game today. Is this fixable without redownloading- and will it save data?
I'm sorry for the trouble! Do you have any virus scanners or firewall stuff on your computer? It says the game loader isn't there and we have heard of that happening by a computer thinking it's unsafe. It's a false flag, though. Some programs just think Python, our programing language, is suspicious. Seeing if you can temporarily turn scanners off or telling it to trust the file might help.
It's also possible something just went strange with the install and uninstalling/reinstalling will fix it.
Your save data won't go away even if you uninstall unless you seek it out and delete it, totally refresh your computer back to prior state from before you played, or have a crash that causes file memory loss. Let me know if any of that helps or not!
I redownloaded and started it up a bunch of times till it worked. I was worried about the DLC's but they're here so that's mainly all that matters. Thanks for getting back to me!
I'm really happy it worked out!
I played this game a couple weeks ago and I've completely fallen head over heels with Cove, y'all need to go easy on us. This is such a beautiful game, all the art is top-notch and the storyline is solid, not to mention the easily distinguishable personalities of all the characters. I'm sorry if I'm ranting, but Our Life just makes me so happy :')
AHHH THIS WAS TOO GOOD!!
Also, Pamela and Noelani seem like the world's best moms!! (i was obsessed with knowing the moms' names, haha...)
your characters were nicely written, and the scenarios were realistic and obviously thought through! it wasn't cringe or cliche, so I really enjoyed this!
i was so happy when cove said he was demisexual i nearly cried. I'm also aspec, and he's one of the first characters i've seen that are canonically ace. I love it and him so much. Especially exploring that aspect in a visual novel, "dating" type game, is such a great subversion of the trope. Also, as a grayromantic person playing it myself, it put me super at ease, as opposed to a really aggressive protagonist that is harder to relate to/engage with.
hey just created an account to comment for help-- for some reason i cant continue my game because of an 'uncaught exception'?? and something like 'file is not a zipfile'? how can i fix this?? do i have to start again?
I think there was a problem when unzipping the file. I'd recommend delete the current build (you won't lose your progress or saves), redownloading the game, and unzipping it with WinZip or 7Zip. Hopefully just trying again will go better and the error won't happen again.
