Despite not being summer, November is an important month for Our Life: Beginnings & Always. It's the time of Cove's birthday, the 2nd, and has the anniversary for the game's original launch, the 16th. That means we're only about two weeks away from the two-year anniversary. Wow. And we're still making expansions for it, ahah. Though, we're on the last one now. Baxter's Story is in the works and these next weeks should see a lot of progress for it.
The October summary was posted HERE! And this is what's planned for this November-
Monthly Content Plans:
It's pretty simple this month: get the first Baxter DLC beta build out and generally complete things for Step 3 of Baxter's DLC. Editing scripts that are written of the currently drafted Moments, programming the edited scenes, testing what's programmed, and drafting new Moments.
If I feel confident in how much Baxter content is done, or if I get really stuck on something, I might take a break to write some more of the Our Life: Now & Forever prologue. We'll see if that ends up happening.
Important Links From October:

That's the kick-off for another month of hopefully great work here at GB Patch Games. It's gonna be fun to share some of Baxter's story after the literal years we've been talking about him, haha. I appreciate everyone who takes the time to keep up with what we're doing here ♥

2022-11-21 21:43:05 +0000 UTCThis is a FanArt though, they added the ring in this art but for now in the Lore I think this ring doesn't exist, there's also a chance they will explore the single mother decision or not, I think it would be better if this too depends on the player in the end since not everyone actually mind or is bothered by the lack of a father figure.

2022-11-07 02:52:23 +0000 UTCYeah, I'm curious too! Also, as a player with a MC who is extremely sad because he doesn't have a father, I'm also very curious as to how the situation will impact the MC's relationship with Opal. Well, it doesn't have to, but it can obviously.

2022-11-03 22:19:36 +0000 UTCMe too. Considering even at a young age at step 1 you can be upset not having a father around, it makes me wonder why they decided to become a single mother too. Maybe she has her reasons but it's understandable how some possible problems might arise from that as well. I hope OL2 delivers on that as well but I know they can do it. c:

2022-11-03 06:56:25 +0000 UTCOh, thank you! Replaying is one of my biggest joys, so I'll gladly do it! I didn't think we'd basically have access to the entire game - I thought it would be a build containing only the new content! Thank you again, I'll certainly pick it up then!
Konoi Kurozora
2022-11-02 23:52:54 +0000 UTCYeah, you can just skip to Step 3 and play from there to see Baxter's stuff. Or you can play from the start, if you want to.
GB Patch
2022-11-02 22:18:42 +0000 UTCYou'll have an option to skip straight to whichever Step you want. You won't get the various references but you won't be required to play Steps 1 & 2.

2022-11-02 19:39:02 +0000 UTCNice! I'm so excited! I have a small question though. I didn't play Derek's betas, but Baxter being my favorite character I may do so. I'd like to know - how do these betas work? For OL2 it's simple since it's the start of the game, but since the OL1 DLCs are situated late in the corresponding game and supposed to be part of a bigger story and to reference other things that happened before, I'm a bit confused. Thank you!

2022-11-02 11:02:03 +0000 UTCThe opal ring on the index finger.... I wonder if we will learn more about Opal and how she came to the decision to become a single mother. I think there is a lot of deep discussion to be had about this, since it's not a decision to be made lightly, and hopefully OL2 delivers on that
