At first: Your game is the best in the genre I played so far! Seriously. It is really cute and adorable. I am looking really very very much for the release!
When I played the demo I decided to buy all the DLCs.... but... and please do not be angry it is just my personal opinion, 4,- USD for a DLC is way too pricey in my eyes. I am absolutely willing to pay a price for the full game, when it is released (even it is free), but the DLC could be a bit cheaper.
Maybe you could (or want) to consider to make the DLCs cheaper, if you by 3 or 5 at once. Like a bundle. I would love that! Still, your game is gorgeous and I am crazy about it.
I hope you are not angry. Please feel free to delete this comment, if you think it is inappropriate. It is just my very personal very private opinion.
I'm very glad you like the game and that you're looking forward to it. There will be bundles that offer small discounts for buying multiple DLCs at a time.
To your other point, each DLC adds five Moments. Five Moments for $4 dollars is 80 cents for each of the Moments in the DLC. And if you've played the demo you know that every Moment has a huge script, dozens of choices, they give bonus alterations that will unlock in other events after you've been through the Moment, include special art, etc. Not everyone has money to spend on things like games. We understand that. You can play the version we're already releasing for free for everyone to enjoy in that case. No one has to have the DLCs to finish the game.
Though, since the base game is free, you could use the money you would've been able to put towards the base game to get the DLCs instead. This way rather than players spending $10-$15 on the base game (which would've been the price range for the game if it had a price point) and having no DLCs, people can spend $8 to still have the entire base game plus now two DLCs. Or not buy the DLCs at all and be able to fully play the game without paying anything.
I don't want to make you have a negative association with the game and have you be too uncomfortable to come back and play it by saying these things. I just want you to be more aware of what those prices really work out to be. We won't delete the comment 'cause it's not spam or harassment or something. You can still have this opinion.
I'm actually really glad that this comment is here. I had misunderstood and thought that each moment was going to cost $4 (whooops...! To be fair, I probably didn't read something I should've.). If each DLC has 5, that's actually not expensive at all. It's a very fair price imo...! My mistake! Keep up the good work. The release date is basically on my birthday so I'm very much looking forward to it. <3 Are the DLCs going to be released all at once with the game's launch?
Yeah, the page doesn't make it clear just how much is included the DLCs. This is only a demo page, so we didn't wanna spend too much space talking about upcoming DLC details. But we didn't consider that people would think they know what the DLCs include and then make a judgement based on the amount they assumed it had. We should've thought of that possibility, though. But now that it came up here in the comments, I tried to really break it down on how the deal ends up working out and that it's already a favorable system. We're definitely not intending to make people pay a bunch for every little thing. All the DLCs will have lots of scenes and new content included.
That's cool the game is coming out right around your birthday! There will be six DLCs in total, one related to each of the four Steps and two that unlock side romance stories with other guys. Only two of the six will be available on launch because all of them are really big. I'm afraid we need more time to get them done. But at least that means there will be more Our Life content to look forward to for a long time coming.
'w' Nobody got hurt so it's fine. I know you guys have nothing but respect for the people around here, it kinda shows hehe. But, glad we found this out? Thanks for addressing it quickly. I'll be patiently waiting for the release. There will be some cool fanart coming your way by then, I'll be sure to tag your team. See ya at the finish line~!
Like the other comment I also thought 1 moment = 4 USD.
Now I understand there are a few moments in every DLC. In this case it is the absolutely opposite of what I wrote before. i apologize, if I offended you in any case. This was never my intention. And I still plan to pay for the Basis-Game. Just because it is worth it.
I hope you are not angry. it was a total misunderstanding!
Thank you for explaining. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. We wouldn't ever wanna charge people that much for one Moment, but I can see how the game's page was confusing before. It was no harm for us, though. We're not angry. I'm glad you're reassured about the game ^^.
Thank you! The full version of the game is launching in about eight weeks, so we're putting all our focus towards getting that as polished as possible. I'm afraid we won't be able to put out another big demo update in the meantime, so the next update will be the whole game coming out on November 16th ^^.
Every time I try to download this itll either download fully and say forbidden or not even finish downloading and say forbidden. I've looked it up and it says I need permission to download the game into my files and to contact the website or owner of the game or make an account but I've downloaded tons of other games off here already, with and without and account. Please help me, this game is what I've been looking for FOR YEARS. Life will feel meaningless if I cant play this >.< 😭😭😭🥺 This is the one game I can have the realest friend or whatever ever, that I cant find in real life.. true friendship.. I've already changed every setting I could to try to fix this. I've tried lots of things. And my phone should be useable for this game, it just got updated to android version 10 or whatever, I think that's the latest version? But I'm not too sure, I cant figure out how to get to the older downloads for this game to try that instead. PLEASE HELP!
I'm sorry you're having trouble downloading the game! We don't require special permissions to download the file, so the error is a little hard to figure out. Can you try downloading the Itch.io App and then downloading the game through the app? Sometimes that helps get past blocks. The game is also large so perhaps it's not allowed on your phone because of a space issue and freeing up someone memory would make it more doable. Also sometimes an initial download just goes strange and then later downloads don't work because of that. So closing everything, making sire something nothing is running in the background, giving it a few minutes, and then trying would have it again might go more smoothly.
I really love how much your choices can affect Cove, as per seen in the trailers. The character customization is very unique, I haven't seen it in any other game. Overall, this game is spectacular, even if it's still a demo. I'm extremely picky when it comes to otome games, but there was something in this game that caught my full on attention
Thank you :D. It's great to hear you liked the features/gameplay we came up with. The finished version is getting close to completion and we did our best o have it live up to the expectations set by the demo.
I'm glad you like it ^^. The adulthood Step 4 part of the game will be a free update, like how the base game is free. But there will also be one optional adult aged DLC that people can purchase if they want to.
That looks like an error that happens if you played an older version of the demo and tried to load an old save file or hit the Continue button. Please try downloading the latest version of the demo and playing the game by using the New File button. That should fix things.
I'm sorry if you don't want to restart, but unfortunately Our Life was/is a very in-progress game. Older builds aren't compatible with new ones, too much programming has changed. The only way to play it now is to start a file in the most current version of the game. There is an option to quickly skip past text you've already seen, though, so it doesn't take very long to get past content you've done before.
I ended up here after watching a gameplay of your game and falling in love, unfortunately, I wasn't able to get it for myself. I've been trying all day and before the download ends, it appears that downloading is prohibited. May you guys have another site who i could try downloading?
To fix the problem on itch, maybe see if it's being blocked by firewall or maybe try downloading from a different browser type. I hope one of those options work and I'm glad you like the look at the game ^^
Just playing the demo and I'm in love with your game! I don't know why but I want to protect Cove so much XD He's so cute hahaha. Impressed with the concept of game, great diversity and also the art! They're beautiful vwv
Question is the Shiloh in this game a younger version of the one in XOXO Droplets? Just wondering cos their personalities seem kinda simular and I found it an odd name
Are you gonna give Cove more hairstyle to choose from? I'm curious how he would look like with short or spiky hair
That being said, it's some of the more mundane and normal VN I've ever played and I'm liking it. Very inclusive too, having two mothers as parents. Kyra is especially so beautiful. I also like how our interaction shapes Cove's personality instead of just affecting his relationship with the MC
Cove has as many hairstyle options as the Step you're in. So Step 1 has just one hair he can have, Step 2 has two, and Step 3 will have three options. You can see Cove with short hair in Step 3!
This game truly gives me everything I ever wanted AND MORE. When I first stumbled upon it I was like hell yeah lemme see what this bad boy is alll about but honestly I got so much more than I bargined for and I absolutely adore the cast.
I can't wait to see the game fully polished and be an adult with Cove like eugh what a sweetie pie never change you goof.
Aaaaaah this is so cool! I love how extensive the options are and I've always wanted a slice of life type of game where the characters grow up together! And that lgbtq+ rep too? LOVE IT!
I have to say though, Cove's parents..? 100/10 They're both gorgeous, especially Kyra. I can see where Cove gets his looks from because hot damn.
minor spoilers below~
also that classic climbing through the window scene was amazing, i love that cliche so much and i'm not ashamed to say it
Hi!! I may be being a bit stupid but I wanted to ask something,, it says four different stages of life but it says three parts will be released in novemeber, will there be another part or are two of the stages together in one part?
It's not a stupid question ^^. There will be a Step 4 that takes place when they're even older (23 years old), but that works as kind of an epilogue and not a main part of the story/arc of the game. We're gonna release it sometime after the first three Steps. Probably early 2021.
This game is so adorable and beautiful ahh!! It feels so comforting to play and I'm really excited for when more releases. Thank you so much for making this :')
I absolutely love this game. I like how they ask you a lot of questions and give you so many choices! And the art style is so beautiful, everyone looks amazing. I'll definently get the full game when it comes out. Thank you for this! :)
This whole game is just incredible. The way it calms down, makes you really feel somehow connected with characters. I appreciate whole work putted in that so much. 🖤
There's only one thing that bothers me(just a tiny little bit), as much as I love the fact that we can customize charakter.. I lack possibility of having heterochromia.
Not a big deal of course and it doesn't change the quality of game. But I got kinda hard time at the very beginning, like... I spend around 20 minutes just to think "Should I use the color of right eye or left?".
But as I said it's just personal problem and game is really, really amazing without this possibility. I hope you'll have a motivation and strength to finish it to November!
(If it will be really finished 2nd of November it's gonna be such a beautiful birthday present to me). 🖤🖤
Thank you very much! I'm sorry heterochromia isn't an option. We did think about it but have yet to find a doable way for it to work for the system we have. If we do come up with a good enough method, it could be added as part of a post-release update. Though I can't say for sure if it will ever be very possible.
But we're definitely going to do our best to make that release date ^^. Happy future birthday to you!
this game is just.. so beautiful!! ahh, I played it a while ago and it made my heart so soft. the art style is so pretty and the storyline is just, amazing??
but I've got a question, will this be available on ios platforms once released? 🥺 I really wish to play it on my tablet, as it is somewhat slow on my android phone.
I'm afraid we don't have plans to release on IOS right now because they make things really hard for developers to get on their platform/store. If the game is unexpectedly successful we might be able to manage it sometime. Though either way, we do plan on making the Android version more optimized/easier to run in the future, so hopefully that'll help.
This is an incredibly ambitious and impressive visual novel game. I'm not exactly a connoisseur of these types of games, but this one seems like some next-level stuff for the genre and it's just wonderful. I hope the team behind this is proud of their hard work!
I'm OBSESSED with this game I can't wait to play the full version. The art style is amazing, I love how you can customize MC and I also love that there was lgbtq+ representation, In conclusion this game is awesome good luck on making the rest!
How did you manage to make this game bring that feeling of nostalgia and peace?
I did not expect that I would like a visual novel so much that it only showed the protagonist's routine. But I loved it. Perhaps due to the fact that I really managed to feel like the protagonist himself. It's so cute to see her relationship (in my case) and Cove's progressing the way you choose. I don't like self-insert protagonists. I'm not necessarily a fan of beaches. And I usually get bored with everything from the "slice of life" genre. But this is one of the games that I'm most looking forward to playing.
Aw, thank you very much! It's really nice to hear you enjoyed the game, even though it is a simple story/setting. We tried our best to still make it fun. Hopefully the full version will live up to expectations ^^
Thank you for the comment! I tried to translate it and I believe you're wondering if the game will ever release in another language? I'm afraid I don't know for sure. Right now we can't but maybe someday it'd be possible.
I really like stories where a relationship with one character develops. And even more so when we see the whole history of their relationships, the growing up of the main characters. A very cute story! I smiled all the time while reading it. I'm looking forward to the full version. Inspiration to you, the authors of such a wonderful novel! Thank you.
I absolutely fell in love with this game! All the choices were very thoughtful too, so thank you all for that. The moms reminded me of Korra and Asami from the Legend of Korra as well. I do have a question, in step 2 I was able to unlock the first two stories but I wasn't able to unlock the last three (family, dinner, & road trip). Was this because of my choices or has it not been developed yet?
Aw, I'm so happy you liked it! Those events aren't available because it's just a demo. They'll be playable no matter what choices you make once the game releases for real on November 2nd, 2020. ^^
This is a really cute game! Normally I'm a bit skeptical about relationship-based games with self-insert characters, but so far it works rather well. The fact that the game constantly asks you how you feel and gives you a varied range of responses DESPITE it mostly not affecting the narrative works in a way I never expected it to. Good job and keep it up!!
Thank you! Even though the game is too long to make every choice have a noticeable change to the script, we figured it'd still be nice to let people keep the continuity of their character by choosing the phrasing anyway. I'm really happy you had a nice time with that :D
Hey! Quick question! For the second adorable memory 'growing' for the second stage is there a way for you to add the option that the MC wears a binder? While I play the game I usually change my pronouns, love that that's an option, to he/him. Seeing that the MC is checking themselves out in the mirror and the fact that they do pay attention to their chest makes me feel slightly dysphoric. Also considering you do add the option that the MC can feel some type of way about their chest, calling them lumps lol, makes me think that the MC should have a small option to wear a binder if it does make them uncomfortable. This isn't something that's needed in the game, I absolutely love it and I have nothing bad to say about it, but it was just something I thought about and thought I should share it. Keep up the great work! Can't wait for the game to come out!
Hello! I can totally see where you're coming from. Things are vaguer and shorter just in Step 2 and that's because of the MC's age. They're only 13 so we don't want the game to linger too long on their body/what they wear, there's only enough mention of it to get the basic impression across. You can definitely imagine on your end that your MC is wearing a binder, or anything else they need. The game won't say they're for sure not wearing one, it's still up to you ultimately. Once the MC is older in Step 3 there's more detailed/specific talks about their body and needs and preferences and things like that. It's great to hear you like the game <3
I was wondering about that as well, thank you so much for your response! I love how customizable and inclusive Our Life is, and I really appreciate that you guys are listening to the feedback. I'm so excited for the full game, thank you again for your hard work ^-^
Sorry for the long wait on the response! But yes thank you so much for clearing that up! I'm so excited to see a release date! I've been waiting since the first day this game came up and I'm so super proud of you guys! Can't wait and thank you again!

After playing the latest demo I'm very excited for the first full release and will be purchasing the DLCs for sure!
Thank you! I'm so glad you've liked the game enough to wanna get the DLCs. That's great to hear ^^
I only have one thing to say.
"TAKE MY MONEYY" XDDD
Very excited for the release date! Thank you for your hard work. From the first demo up until now, it has been such a ride. Thanks for this game, dev!
Haha, thank you! I'm so glad you've enjoyed following along the game's development. I really hope the full version lives up to expectations.

Hello,
Like the other comment I also thought 1 moment = 4 USD.
Now I understand there are a few moments in every DLC. In this case it is the absolutely opposite of what I wrote before. i apologize, if I offended you in any case. This was never my intention. And I still plan to pay for the Basis-Game. Just because it is worth it.
I hope you are not angry. it was a total misunderstanding!
Thank you for explaining. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. We wouldn't ever wanna charge people that much for one Moment, but I can see how the game's page was confusing before. It was no harm for us, though. We're not angry. I'm glad you're reassured about the game ^^.
Thank you for the nice comment <3! I'm really glad you like it.
Hi! I hope you're doing well!! I was just wondering when you think the next update is going to be on our life?
Thank you! The full version of the game is launching in about eight weeks, so we're putting all our focus towards getting that as polished as possible. I'm afraid we won't be able to put out another big demo update in the meantime, so the next update will be the whole game coming out on November 16th ^^.

I love how unique this game is and Cove is so cute, I love how you can play them like sweethearts its so adorable.

I'm glad you like it ^^. The adulthood Step 4 part of the game will be a free update, like how the base game is free. But there will also be one optional adult aged DLC that people can purchase if they want to.
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While running game code:
File "game/character_creation_variables.rpy", line 208, in <module>
KeyError: u'acne'
why it say that its not letting me play:(
That looks like an error that happens if you played an older version of the demo and tried to load an old save file or hit the Continue button. Please try downloading the latest version of the demo and playing the game by using the New File button. That should fix things.
that has me restart the game all over again
I'm sorry if you don't want to restart, but unfortunately Our Life was/is a very in-progress game. Older builds aren't compatible with new ones, too much programming has changed. The only way to play it now is to start a file in the most current version of the game.

It's also available on Steam! Though only for Windows and Linux, not Mac or Android.

To fix the problem on itch, maybe see if it's being blocked by firewall or maybe try downloading from a different browser type. I hope one of those options work and I'm glad you like the look at the game ^^
Just playing the demo and I'm in love with your game! I don't know why but I want to protect Cove so much XD He's so cute hahaha. Impressed with the concept of game, great diversity and also the art! They're beautiful vwv
Looking forward for the complete story!
Thank you very much C:. That's really nice of you to say. We're excited to get the finished version out for people to try.
I AM SO HAPPY I FOUND THIS GAME IT'S LITTERLY ONE OF THE BEST THINGS I'V EVER PLAYED.
Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it that much.
Question is the Shiloh in this game a younger version of the one in XOXO Droplets? Just wondering cos their personalities seem kinda simular and I found it an odd name
Yep! The Shilohs are one in the same, just at different ages ^^
Are you gonna give Cove more hairstyle to choose from? I'm curious how he would look like with short or spiky hair

This game truly gives me everything I ever wanted AND MORE. When I first stumbled upon it I was like hell yeah lemme see what this bad boy is alll about but honestly I got so much more than I bargined for and I absolutely adore the cast.
I can't wait to see the game fully polished and be an adult with Cove like eugh what a sweetie pie never change you goof.
Aw, thank you so much ^^. That's really nice of you to say. And no worries there, he's still a sweetie goof even when he gets older.
Aaaaaah this is so cool! I love how extensive the options are and I've always wanted a slice of life type of game where the characters grow up together! And that lgbtq+ rep too? LOVE IT!
I have to say though, Cove's parents..? 100/10 They're both gorgeous, especially Kyra. I can see where Cove gets his looks from because hot damn.

that classic climbing through the window scene was amazing, i love that cliche so much and i'm not ashamed to say itThank you very much :D! It's great to hear this is the kind of game you've wanted to see. And agreed, haha. Kyra is way pretty.
This game is so well written and the art style is beautiful.
Every time a new build is dropped I enjoy making a different character. It helps me experience all aspects available.
I am SO excited for the first three steps to be released.
I wish you all the best!
Tata!
Thank you!! That's very kind of you to say. We're really looking forward to seeing what people think of the finished Steps :D
Hi!! I may be being a bit stupid but I wanted to ask something,, it says four different stages of life but it says three parts will be released in novemeber, will there be another part or are two of the stages together in one part?

ahh okay that makes sense thank you!! :)
No problem!
This game is so adorable and beautiful ahh!! It feels so comforting to play and I'm really excited for when more releases. Thank you so much for making this :')
Aw, thank you so much for the kind words! We're really looking forward to getting the whole game out to everyone.
ACK I NEED MORE COVE!!!
Haha, glad you like him. We'll be releasing plenty of more content soon ^^
I can't wait ^^
How much will the full version be when it is released?
It'll be free! There will be two or three optional DLCs that cost $4USD each.
So, the full game releases on Nov 2? Best early birthday gift ever! Thanks, y'all! :D
Yep! November 2nd is Cove's birthday, so happy early birthday to the both of you ^^
I'll have to mark it on my calendar! haha
Thank you!
I absolutely love this game. I like how they ask you a lot of questions and give you so many choices! And the art style is so beautiful, everyone looks amazing. I'll definently get the full game when it comes out. Thank you for this! :)

There's only one thing that bothers me(just a tiny little bit), as much as I love the fact that we can customize charakter.. I lack possibility of having heterochromia.
Not a big deal of course and it doesn't change the quality of game. But I got kinda hard time at the very beginning, like... I spend around 20 minutes just to think "Should I use the color of right eye or left?".
But as I said it's just personal problem and game is really, really amazing without this possibility. I hope you'll have a motivation and strength to finish it to November!
(If it will be really finished 2nd of November it's gonna be such a beautiful birthday present to me). 🖤🖤
Thank you very much! I'm sorry heterochromia isn't an option. We did think about it but have yet to find a doable way for it to work for the system we have. If we do come up with a good enough method, it could be added as part of a post-release update. Though I can't say for sure if it will ever be very possible.
But we're definitely going to do our best to make that release date ^^. Happy future birthday to you!
this game is just.. so beautiful!! ahh, I played it a while ago and it made my heart so soft. the art style is so pretty and the storyline is just, amazing??
but I've got a question, will this be available on ios platforms once released? 🥺 I really wish to play it on my tablet, as it is somewhat slow on my android phone.
Aw, thanks <3! That's really nice to hear.
I'm afraid we don't have plans to release on IOS right now because they make things really hard for developers to get on their platform/store. If the game is unexpectedly successful we might be able to manage it sometime. Though either way, we do plan on making the Android version more optimized/easier to run in the future, so hopefully that'll help.
This is an incredibly ambitious and impressive visual novel game. I'm not exactly a connoisseur of these types of games, but this one seems like some next-level stuff for the genre and it's just wonderful. I hope the team behind this is proud of their hard work!
Thank you ^^! It definitely ended up being big a project for us, ahah. I'm glad it feels ambitious rather than overdone.
I'm OBSESSED with this game I can't wait to play the full version. The art style is amazing, I love how you can customize MC and I also love that there was lgbtq+ representation, In conclusion this game is awesome good luck on making the rest!
Thank you so much :D! That's really nice of you to say. We'll keep doing our best with it.
How did you manage to make this game bring that feeling of nostalgia and peace?
I did not expect that I would like a visual novel so much that it only showed the protagonist's routine. But I loved it. Perhaps due to the fact that I really managed to feel like the protagonist himself.
It's so cute to see her relationship (in my case) and Cove's progressing the way you choose.
I don't like self-insert protagonists. I'm not necessarily a fan of beaches. And I usually get bored with everything from the "slice of life" genre.
But this is one of the games that I'm most looking forward to playing.
Congratulations, it's a beautiful game!
Aw, thank you very much! It's really nice to hear you enjoyed the game, even though it is a simple story/setting. We tried our best to still make it fun. Hopefully the full version will live up to expectations ^^
Loving the game so far! cant wait to play more!
Haha, glad you liked it and thanks for making a let's play video of the demo! Cove's dad certainly makes a bad first impression.
Achei a história tão incrível. Eu quero saber se você pode colocá-lo em outras línguas. ❤❤
Thank you for the comment! I tried to translate it and I believe you're wondering if the game will ever release in another language? I'm afraid I don't know for sure. Right now we can't but maybe someday it'd be possible.
I really like stories where a relationship with one character develops. And even more so when we see the whole history of their relationships, the growing up of the main characters. A very cute story! I smiled all the time while reading it. I'm looking forward to the full version. Inspiration to you, the authors of such a wonderful novel! Thank you.
It's great to hear you like those kind of stories too! We're big fans of that ourselves, haha. Thank you for the kind words :D
beautiful, cute, sexy art. nice
I'm glad you like the art style ^^
This game is so cute, I loved it! Can't wait for the full version. Congrats for the amazing work! Best regards from Brazil ❤️
Thank you <3 <3 <3!
I absolutely fell in love with this game! All the choices were very thoughtful too, so thank you all for that. The moms reminded me of Korra and Asami from the Legend of Korra as well. I do have a question, in step 2 I was able to unlock the first two stories but I wasn't able to unlock the last three (family, dinner, & road trip). Was this because of my choices or has it not been developed yet?
Aw, I'm so happy you liked it! Those events aren't available because it's just a demo. They'll be playable no matter what choices you make once the game releases for real on November 2nd, 2020. ^^
where are the dlc's ?
...The game's not released yet. Once the full game comes out, you'll be able to buy the DLC for additional content, but it's not available yet.
ok thank you ^^
Thank you for answering!
Yeah, we'll be releasing DLCs on November 2nd, 2020! Thank you for the interest.
This is a really cute game! Normally I'm a bit skeptical about relationship-based games with self-insert characters, but so far it works rather well. The fact that the game constantly asks you how you feel and gives you a varied range of responses DESPITE it mostly not affecting the narrative works in a way I never expected it to. Good job and keep it up!!
Thank you! Even though the game is too long to make every choice have a noticeable change to the script, we figured it'd still be nice to let people keep the continuity of their character by choosing the phrasing anyway. I'm really happy you had a nice time with that :D
Hey! Quick question! For the second adorable memory 'growing' for the second stage is there a way for you to add the option that the MC wears a binder? While I play the game I usually change my pronouns, love that that's an option, to he/him. Seeing that the MC is checking themselves out in the mirror and the fact that they do pay attention to their chest makes me feel slightly dysphoric. Also considering you do add the option that the MC can feel some type of way about their chest, calling them lumps lol, makes me think that the MC should have a small option to wear a binder if it does make them uncomfortable. This isn't something that's needed in the game, I absolutely love it and I have nothing bad to say about it, but it was just something I thought about and thought I should share it. Keep up the great work! Can't wait for the game to come out!
Hello! I can totally see where you're coming from. Things are vaguer and shorter just in Step 2 and that's because of the MC's age. They're only 13 so we don't want the game to linger too long on their body/what they wear, there's only enough mention of it to get the basic impression across. You can definitely imagine on your end that your MC is wearing a binder, or anything else they need. The game won't say they're for sure not wearing one, it's still up to you ultimately. Once the MC is older in Step 3 there's more detailed/specific talks about their body and needs and preferences and things like that. It's great to hear you like the game <3
Gotta give you guys credit for responding to stuff so quickly.
Thank you! We try our best, haha.
I was wondering about that as well, thank you so much for your response! I love how customizable and inclusive Our Life is, and I really appreciate that you guys are listening to the feedback. I'm so excited for the full game, thank you again for your hard work ^-^
No problem! We're happy to make the game something that makes other people happy. Thank you for the kind words <3
Sorry for the long wait on the response! But yes thank you so much for clearing that up! I'm so excited to see a release date! I've been waiting since the first day this game came up and I'm so super proud of you guys! Can't wait and thank you again!
No problem ^^. I'm really glad you're looking forward to it. We'll do our best!

Aw, thanks. I'm so happy you like it <3
