Hello, got to download the game into my phone but I seem to run into the problem of it not running and crashing when interacting with anything in the main menu. It might be my phone but if this is something that happens , can some tell how to fix this? It'd be greatly appreciated 👍🏼

I'm sorry it's not working on your phone, though I sadly can't give any for sure ways to make it run on the device. It's possible the game needs more room to run properly or that your virus scanner thinks the game downloaded from a website rather than the googleplay store is dangerous and won't let it run properly. 

Ah, ok that does make sense that it would probably think of it as something dangerous. But then again it's also probably my storage. But I thankfully got to finish the play through on my computer so I still got it play nontheless so it's not all bad ☺️ but thank you for the help either way

I'm glad you had a way to play it after all!

I was thinking "Why is this in my feed (the DLC)? Why do I know the name?? I need to check something" and found out why. This is one of the few (I think only) dating sim games I have that you don't make love (sex scene/nude MC and/or NPCs). 

Turns out I have it in steam and after seeing how hot Derek looks and his rocking body at the beach (VERY nice btw 😁) I got all the DLC (on steam). Look forward to getting back into the game and playing more then a few minutes

The DLCs can be downloaded for Mac, but they're third party apps and some mac devices will only run officially approved apps. So, they may or may not be easier to run, depending on which mac you have.

Is there a female RO? Or only male.. I would like to know if its possible to play as female and romance a female character, that would make the game interesting

There isn't buuuutt! Our Life; Now & Forever does, it's still in early development but it has a beta out!!!

Heya! I've been loving the game since first meeting Cove! And now I'm so glad the Derek DLC has finally come out. Have been playing its Step 2 stuff and LOVING it so far - Super great stories. It's weird how much I relate to Derek a lot, going through the story... So I felt even more connected to him than I've known him outside the DLC (fret not, Cove is still a good boy for me).

Though unfortunate that there seemed to be some problems with some stuff in it; still loving it though, and can't wait to go through Step 4 stuff soon.(Am hopeful that there will be some patch fixes for the problems encountered, since this is still early after full release!)

Last words, I wish you luck on the next DLC development and other games in the future! (Rest assured I shall get it the moment it comes out too, hah!)

Is there a way to reset your progress (meaning everything being "unread") on Android version?

Downloaded version 1.6.0 of the game. Paid for and downloaded the Derek.rpa file. Stuck the rpa into the game file and can't access the Derek dlc pages. What am l doing  wrong? Love this game and eagerly anticipated the Derek additions but now l feel like a noob. Please help.

Are they locked or do you not see them at all? Did you click the yellow button on the Step 2 Moment selection screen to swap from Cove's moments to Derek's?

They are locked. I have gotten all of the Cove docs and the wedding dlc and they all worked great. But the Derek is blank when l get to that page. Thank you.

Do l also have to have the Cove rpas in the game file to make the Derek rpa work?

Oh, I reread your first post and saw. You don't need Cove's DLC. Can you send me a picture of your folder?

Found it!!! Yeah, l am a noob, found the arrow on the right side of Moments 2 and found Derek's moments. Thanks so much for your time and effort.  Love this game so much.

I reinstalled the game and all the DLCs after getting the Derek DLC. It all works fine (and I'm excited to play the new DLC), except for the sound. I had sound in the beginning, but it just all stopped (music and everything) somewhere during the first Step 1 Moment I played. Is it something I did? Is there anything I can do to bring it back?

(1 edit)

I tried restarting, and now it doesn't start anymore :s

Edit: it was the itch.io launcher somehow. I started it from the folder and it both runs and the sound is back.

Wow can you believe it this game is already 3 years old

"where painful emotions such as sadness, anger, stress, and worry can all be expressed, then met with reassurance, understanding, and support."

I really like this, how you can be silent or miserable or cry about everything, it's a really sweet and emotional game

i just played this again to get ready for the derek dlc and i am once again reminded how much i love cove holden

My Life is divided into before and after playing Our Life.

Love Cove Holden : Beginnings & Always

I’ve loved this game for an INCREDIBLY long time, and I’ve just bought all 4 current (Paid/Not counting the voiced names, having already had that one!) DLCs back to back to enjoy from now on! (And I WILL be ensuring my hands are laid upon Derek’s DLC when it releases on the 29th, AND Baxter’s when the time comes! ;w; ♥♥)

This game became my emotional support. I am thankful for having the chance to play, after so LONG of not playing any video games, this beautiful game. This is a good start hehe. The game is entertaining, the art style is attractive, the soundtracks are so nice and it's lively when you interact with the characters. They ALL have personalities and they show it!!!  I really love the characters in this game, and I'm excited to play the different route DLC's (Derek & Baxter) once they're out someday. Truthfully, good job and keep it up hehe

I will never emotionally recover from this. Cove Is the perfect human and I will no longer be accepting anything less than this amount of effort in relationships.

Facts!

I only recently found this site and I honestly wasn't expecting much from free games, but this one has really surprised me in the best of ways. I've played plenty of dating sims/visual novels/otome games and this is the first and only one that felt this rewarding. Most of the time you have the childhood friend trope and are expected to suspend your disbelief and just accept that you have some shared history that you really have no knowledge of but with this one you make those memories first and so the experience is more immersive and feels more natural and real and the relationships feel truly earned. I really appreciate that. Also that it's inclusive and includes more than the typical boy/girl dynamic. On a more personal note, having grown up partially in a small beach town myself I really related to some things that happened like collecting things you find on the beach, making sand castles, just enjoying the day, even a cute one where you're trying to find loose change to get ice cream is something I experienced with friends and my sister as a kid. But anyway this game feels under appreciated over all. It's a really beautiful game and deserves all the credit it can get. 

hiii I bought the game but I can't play it just stays on the home screen

Rather than just being a "dating-sim", this game made me feel loved as I am. It was interesting how the choices available allowed much freedom and tried to make me comfortable, which allowed me to become absorbed into the game. Family and friends in this game were so loveable and supportive, and the narrator constantly spoke of my feelings. 

And Cove, the main character of the story was so CUTE. I loved the moment when we went to sleep on poppy hill, and waking up to see him saying something along the lines of "See, I told you I'll be here in the morning" which struck my heart. And the time when he waited outside the car... 

It actually felt like I had a life at Sunset Bird, with my moms, Elizabeth, the Holdens as my neighbors, listening to the ocean waves, taking a walk to the shopping district, and going to the (oh so memorable) poppy hill. The characters remembered the choices I took and reacted accordingly. Totally stunned when I was left back at the title screen. 

Dear GBPatch, thank you for this amazing game. It made me feel so loved and let me wonder what kind of a life I want in the future. I was actually feeling quite dead for a few years, having lost light and energy to do anything. 

Really sad that it ended, but I loved "Our Life" with Cove at Sunset Bird -. Thank you so much. It must have taken so much effort to create and finish this, and all the while leave it to be free.

You couldn't have worded it any better. I completely agree! I genuinely feel like a lot of visual novels in the romance genre are nowadays too focused on making their individual plots unique and interactive, which ends up lacking the actual relationship/build up between the routes. This leads to it mostly feeling shallow and not giving me enough time to care about the characters.

When I first played I was bawling just because it gave validation that not a lot of people gave to me at my many dark points in life. Everyone supported me no matter what decision I wanted to make. Both friends and family both constantly communicated their own feelings and thoughts to avoid misunderstandings. There were a lot of times where they made a lot of effort to stay in touch like our favorite (and only I think) cousin!

I'm sad that it ended too, but I always end up playing again just because of how much I enjoy myself. I swear the first time I played Our Life it felt like I had so much content to explore, now on my many attempts later I feel like I go through it so fast! I'm always happy to "come back" and start a new life :)

To stop myself from continuing to ramble I'm happy you were able to experience it the same way I did.

Thank you GBPatch!!!

If there was a like button I'd use it fit your post. Very much this.

(+6)(-1)

yes

I finally found a way to play with all the DLC, i had to go on steam and buy it all again but now it works on my computer

(+2)

oh my god, this is THE BEST VN I have ever played, truly this was an amazing experience, Im so emotional that I have finished it. I never wanted it to end! Nearly every character in this game is a comfort character and brings me joy. Now I await for a Cove to enter my own life.

Hello! I have most of the DLCs purchased on Steam, but I want to be able to play it on mobile. Is there a way to do that without re-purchasing all of the DLCs on Itch?

same I brought all the DLCs on steam but im using a Mac so I can't play them on it

(+3)

ITS SO PERFECT

(+3)

AS OF THE MOMENT, I CANNOT PURCHASE THE DLCs, BUT THE GAME IS SO GOOD.

The game can be played regardless of buying the DLCs, cause it is packed with content that will make any free-to-play player happy. I spent hours on it during my free time and took me about 3-4 days to complete. (Unless you have the luxury to attend to this game alone, it'll take a day at most. I just wanted to take my sweet time, hehehe.)

I like the inclusive elements and choices, though (may be a dealbreaker for some) There isn't a single CG that depict our MC in the free version. (Don't come at me, I know it's a first person POV VN and it's difficult to code or design the CG,  it's just sad that we don't get one, even at the end of the story.) It's a good thing that Cove makes up for all of that! HE'S THE MOST PRECIOUS CHARACTER YOU'LL MEET ISTG. I had to hold and massage my cheeks between breaks because the interactions were just so adorable and wholesome!

Once you finished the game after a blind playthrough, you'll soon realize that a ton of content is skippable and at times unnecessary, but in my views, it was a nice thing and might appeal to a younger audience like someone in their early teens. You get to build your character's appearances as well as preference-- though it doesn't entirely impact the story too much, but it's a nice touch and honestly unique than most VNs right now, whether Free or Paid.

I'm also excited to romance Derek, and it looks like I'll love him as well!

I'm looking forward to your future projects, like the next VN (Our Life: Now & Forever) you guys are working on! until I can purchase the DLCs, I will have to hold any additional comments!

definitely a 8.5/10 in my book.

(+2)

Listen I'm not One To comment on a game unless  it deserves the praise, but coming from a man like me, This Was A Game I Wont Forget, I Cant Wait To Play More Of Your Games.

i cried over the end man help im

Oh dear- im scared- is it sad or is it just that good?

its not sad!! its just really good im very emotional :')

(+1)

This is such a good and wholesome game! I love how customizable and interactive this game is, not to mention  it's actually kind of realistic when it comes to interactions. 10/10 recommend ^^

I just got it and already I love it. I'm probably going to play the whole thing in one day, night if needed, and I'm tempted to buy the DLC's even though I'm supposed to be saving money. (Also, the bed when they are kids is the exact bed I have, and I thought that was funny)

It's the first time I like a game so much, now I want to buy the dlc...

The problem is that I live in Latin America so... I DON'T KNOW IF I WILL BE ABLE TO PAY WITH MY CURRENCY, IT IS LITERALLY THE FIRST TIME THAT THIS HAPPENS TO ME. I'm so sorry if I sound so silly. TT

You can try to purchase the game on Steam, it offers the game in other currencies!

(-2)

its taking so long to download its already been an hour and it still isnt even half way through

PLEASE I NEED ANOTHER DLC WITH KIDS PLEASE BRO PLEASE I LOVE THIS GAME

I wanna play this game so bad, it looks absolutely amazing, but I have a problem. I can't get passed the loading screen? when ever i click new file or anything else it'll process for a few seconds before a black screen appears and it closes the app. I'm currently on an android phone is there any possibly way i can fix this??

It's possible a virus scanner or app checker on your phone is blocking the game because it decided this file downloaded off some random site doesn't seem safe. Or sometimes it needs more space to properly play than it takes to just download it and having more memory available helps. I hope you're able to get it to work!

Played the game and loved it so much especially how great the game made me reflect on real life. I  finished the game and cried and bit cause of how sweet it was, then realized I was never gonna have this ever, I grew up in a homophobic area and had relationship trauma when I was 11. I was bitter and sad that I was robbed of this for my entire life even now being 19, and I cried for 30 minutes and had a horrible breakdown over it

Overall great game 10/10

lol I thought the game ended when we're 8 hehehe

Been supporting this game before it came out and I literally get stupidly emotional whenever i play it over and over again.. The wedding dlc  made me incredibly happy and I literally can't wait for Derek and Baxter dlc to come out!! (THE DEREK DLC IS SO CUTE I LOVE IT SO MUCH 😭😭) but Cove will always be my number one ;[ I love this man so so so so much and I think I fall in love even more each time I play it!!!! there are times where I have to stop because the way he loves mc makes stupidly emotional and I just wish younger me had someone who she could've loved and had along her side to go through everything she went through but with someone who could cheer her on and someone she could cheer on :(( Also thank you for helping me realize that i am capable of falling in love!! (even if hes fictional LOL) It has literally give me hope that one day i can actually fall in love with someone the way I had fallen for cove!!! But enough about me getting emotional 😭💔 Cove will forever be my biggest comfort character and there will never be a day where I see something sea themed and be like "Cove would def like that!!" thank you so much gb for creating this incredible game that has brought great comfort to me and others!!!!! I will be cheering you on and supporting you on patreon until we're old and wrinkly 😮‍💨 AND TO THOSE WHO ARE SAD LIKE ME ABOUT LOVE AND WANTING COVE TO BE REAL, WE WILL FIND OUR COVE ONE DAY!!! HAVE HOPE MY SWEETHEARTS WE GOT THIS!! STAY STRONG!! :DD 🎉🎉 <33333
