Same I just don't really understand the steps to download them like I bought them and I have the folder I just don't understand what to do from after that.
1. Download the DLCs and extract the contents, on Mac it does it automatically, so you should end up with two folders: one called step 1 and another called step 2. Open step 1 (or 2) and copy the contents.
2. Right click the Our Life application and select the "Show package contents" option, the computer will then open a new window with a folder called "contents" . Open it and you will then see 2 folders and a .plist file.
3. Open the Resources folder, and within that open the autorun folder
4. Inside the autorun folder you will see a game folder, open it and paste what you copied in step 1 into the game folder
I don't have a windows but I assume it would be a similar process of copying the items from the DLC folders and looking for the game folder
Thanks for answering to help, Jane Doe. And here's a screenshot of all the folders you need to open and where you put the files. Start things off by right clicking the button that launches the Our Life game and choose "Show package contents". Then open all these folders and at the end once you've opened the "game" folder, you put the folder you extracted from the DLC in there. Make sure you extracted the DLC files and that they're not still in a zipped folder. I hope that helps!
Im soooo happy that it is finally out! I have been following it since the beginning, always trying out everything every time something new was added. Everything about it fills me with joy :3 Thank you so much for creating this
I'm excited that the full product is finally out but I'm not sure if it's a singular me issue or not but the steam version doesn't want to download for some reason. It get to the end of the download but then tells me it has a disk write error and won finish the download. Does anyone know how to fix it I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and restarting steam. nothing
Yeah, this is a pretty common problem, unfortunately. We're a very small group using a niche engine and sometimes computers block the game on Steam. It doesn't tend to happen with Itch, though. If you can allow greater access for downloading files or temporarily turn off any virus scanners you have, the download may finally go through. Let us know if you're still having trouble!
Hello! Happy that this game released! Though, I don't think I received an email with the dlc keys for Steam. Also, some reason it won't let me play the game, I downloaded it and it says there's a Virus in the game! Now, the application is gone :'c I dont know what happened
I'm really glad you're excited for it! We're a very small group using a niche engine and sometimes computers block the game on Steam. It doesn't tend to happen with Itch, though. If you can allow greater access for downloading files or temporarily turn off any virus scanners you have, the download may finally go through. Let us know if you're still having trouble!
It didn't block Steam at least, thank goodness for that. I was wondering why the DLC keys for Steam wasn't sent? I don't know how to turn off any Virus scanners but every time I re-download it, the application isn't there. It really seems like it deleted itself :'(
It's gone not because the game file deleted itself, but because your virus scanner removed it from your computer because it doesn't trust the engine. If you can look around your computer and find out the name of your virus blocker, you can use the name to search online how to turn it off/make it stop suspecting certain files ^^.
If you're a Kickstarter/Patreon backer, would you mind messaging us on those sites for help getting rewards? The keys were all sent, it could be in your trash or spam, but we can resend them if we know your backer details info.
Yeah. I'm afraid you do have to fully delete the demo and instead get this brand new build. The DLC won't work otherwise. Thank you for supporting us ^^
Sorry I have another question about the paid DLC's (Mac). How do you know if it's working in the game? I got too excited and copy and pasted the files without knowing the difference first haha
You'll know it's working if you get to a screen with a bunch of photo-shaded buttons and the bottom row doesn't have locks on them. If they are locked it means the files are in the wrong folder.
Hi! I bought the DLCs and have one question - ONLY the "rpy" files, as in, for example, "s2.mall.rpy", not the "s2.mall.rpy~" and "s2.mall.rpyc", right?
The rpy files are required for it to work, the other files aren't really. But you don't need to worry about picking out the right ones if that's causing concern. You can copy/paste it all in and everything will be good ^^
i'm so happy the full game is finally out! ive been supporting it since forever and would play the demo every time a new one came out! it was a pleasant surprise that the whole game is free (and i was completely willing to pay) but i will be buying the dlc just because i love this game THAT much. thank you for a wonderful game :]
Open the extracted folder and copy the rpy files inside
Open the folder of your current Our Life Build and find the "game" folder inside. To view folders on Mac you might have to right click the application launcher and select "view package contents" and you may have to open a couple different folders before you find the "game" folder tucked away inside
Paste the new rpys you got from the DLC into the Our Life "game" folder
After that, the build you already had will now include all the extra content this DLC gives.
Android Instructions:
Download the .apk file and install it to your device. It will update your current game version to have all the new info. Or, if you haven't downloaded Our Life before, the complete game (with DLC included) will be installed. The file size is large, but only the files you don't already have will be kept. It won't double the amount of memory used if you already have the game installed.
To view folders on Mac you might have to right click the application launcher and select "view package contents" and then open these folders.
If you downloaded the game through the Itch.io App instead of the webpage the folders will be rearranged and not work right. You can just reinstall the game from this page, though ^^.
I bought the DLC and Soundtrack bundle but when ever I try to download the DLC it doesn't want to save in the file I want it to like it removes it self
Can you tell me what system are you using? If you're on Android the DLC is meant to go away after you've installed it. It just updates the normal build and then it's done. If you're on PC or Mac that shouldn't happen.
No it was on my laptop that got Windows and it's because of Windows my Download get deleted all the time so I did it that I downloaded the PC version on my phone and extended it there and moved it over to my laptop so they work now X3
hi! So I downloaded the android version for my galaxy tablet with the step 1 DLC and the game crashes every time I try to play one of the step 1 DLC moments
Can you tell me what the crash says? If the game just closes with no warning maybe something went wrong with the download and uninstalling/reinstalling will help.
The game so far is pretty amazing and I bought the DLC's, all three. I'm going into Step 2, but before that, I realized I couldn't play the Runaway or Sleepover DLC.
I keep getting this message:

Thank you for getting the game! The error says the runaway file isn't in the game and that's why it can't be started. Maybe the copy/pasting of the DLC files into the game folder had something go wrong and the file was missed. Could you try adding them back in the game folder again?
I updated the game and the DLC's on the itch app and then re-added the DLC's RPY files back to the main game and now everything's fine so far. I'll have to restart my character over again but this is no issue at all as this game has serious, serious replayability.
I'd like to say thank you. Thank you so so much for creating this game. I've never felt more seen and understood and acknowledged until I bought this game. As a demiromantic bisexual woman, too often I'm accused of sending mixed signals and not "being honest" with my chosen partner/crush, etc. There was none of those nasty feelings in this game and I sincerely appreciate it.
Quick question, I was a backer on Kickstarter and was just wondering when the email with itchio codes for the DLC will be sent out? Congrats on release! :D
EEEEEEEEEEEE--- I saw this game like a week before and I literally set up so many alarms and notifications on my calendar to remember this-- AND NOW ITS OUT!!!!!!! :DDDDDDD
It's Out~! Was a beta backer and there every step of the way through production -- I know there were some Serious tough times, but I'm so Proud of you all! You Did It!! I know this game (and future releases) will be Amazing! *digs in* <3
I'm so excited to play! But it just occurred to me I'm unsure of how to add the dlcs since I downloaded them from here. If someone could point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it! <3

Yes!! Congrats you guys for releasing the game. And thank you for your hard work. I look forward to enjoying building Hunter's life with Cove. ^_^
Okay, I have no idea how to download the dlcs, I have followed the instructions and nothing is working, they are still locked. Someone help please

thank you so much for this!!! i was so lost
Yeah I tried this twice and it still didn't work but thank you!!
It worked thank you so much!!! Now I can do it with step 2
Im soooo happy that it is finally out! I have been following it since the beginning, always trying out everything every time something new was added. Everything about it fills me with joy :3 Thank you so much for creating this
When are we getting the other voiced names?
Love the game btw! Almost done with the DLC in step 2!!!!
SO CUTE!!!
Probably within a week or so! I'm glad you think it's cute <3
How did you download the DLC's? I'm a bit confused with the instructions.
I'm excited that the full product is finally out but I'm not sure if it's a singular me issue or not but the steam version doesn't want to download for some reason.

Of course! Thank you for helping me
No problem :D
Bought both DLC's (and do we have to re-download the game again? I only have the demo version) can't wait to play this after work! :)
Yeah. I'm afraid you do have to fully delete the demo and instead get this brand new build. The DLC won't work otherwise. Thank you for supporting us ^^
Hi! Where can I find the file for mac? Also, congratulations on the release!! Can't wait to play <3
It's there now! We had it out of view for a second while making a little edit.
Awesome! Thank you! :)
Sorry I have another question about the paid DLC's (Mac). How do you know if it's working in the game? I got too excited and copy and pasted the files without knowing the difference first haha
You'll know it's working if you get to a screen with a bunch of photo-shaded buttons and the bottom row doesn't have locks on them. If they are locked it means the files are in the wrong folder.
um I do windows, there aren't any files for windows yet are there?
Sorry, there was a small edit on the page being done that hid the file. It's viewable now.
oh thx!!! ^^ so excited to play it ^^!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No problem :D

Been waiting for this game for months I can't believe its finally out! Bought both DLCs happy to support such a lovely game.
How do we get the DLC into the main game? I got the main part of the game up and running but I can't figure out how to get the DLC into the game.
Here's how it works!
Windows, Linux, & Mac Instructions:
After that, the build you already had will now include all the extra content this DLC gives.
Android Instructions:
Download the .apk file and install it to your device. It will update your current game version to have all the new info. Or, if you haven't downloaded Our Life before, the complete game (with DLC included) will be installed. The file size is large, but only the files you don't already have will be kept. It won't double the amount of memory used if you already have the game installed.
Thank you so much! It's working perfectly now!
That's great :D
I'm on Mac and I'm having trouble finding the game folder? Where do I look?
To view folders on Mac you might have to right click the application launcher and select "view package contents"
and then open these folders.
If you downloaded the game through the Itch.io App instead of the webpage the folders will be rearranged and not work right. You can just reinstall the game from this page, though ^^.

Oh cool, well I'm glad it worked out in the end! Sorry for the trouble.
Hi! Will the steam page ever have the Android version? Thank you, I love your games ❤️
I'm afraid we can't. Steam doesn't host Android builds, as far as I know. I'm happy you love the game, though c:
hi! So I downloaded the android version for my galaxy tablet with the step 1 DLC and the game crashes every time I try to play one of the step 1 DLC moments
Can you tell me what the crash says? If the game just closes with no warning maybe something went wrong with the download and uninstalling/reinstalling will help.
oh yeah it just closes with no warning. I guess I can try deleting everything and then a fresh install?
Yeah, that might be for the best.
The game so far is pretty amazing and I bought the DLC's, all three. I'm going into Step 2, but before that, I realized I couldn't play the Runaway or Sleepover DLC.

Here's how!
Thank you!!
CONGRATS ON THE RELEASE!!! I just bought the DLC on Steam, but wanted to come say thanks for making such an amazing game.
Congratulations on the release!!
I've been following the development since the first day and I'm so happy your hardwork paid off! Definitely buying the DLCs!
The game's finally out, so now it's time for me to hyperfixate on this game and talk my friend's ear off about it afterwards uvu
oop I just realized that the voiced names will be released separately as a free DLC. I'm going to wait to play until then haha.
I'm loaded up, got the DLCs added in and have a giant smile on my face, so excited to start! Have a fun play through everyone! :33333
Um is there a difference between the Itch.io version and the steam version?
Question are we getting more preset names because mine was Quinn other than that I am fine :)
Will you ever add any female love interests to this?
I'm downloading it right now, I'm so excited!! I've been looking forward to this for as long as I have known about it! And yes I did make an account just to comment on this :D Love you guys! Keep up the good work!!
Just signed up to say thank you so much for releasing this so excited to play and see all the variables and you guys are great!
