Happy Birthday To Me!

Today's an extra day off for me 'cause it's my birthday 🥳️

Edit:
Thank you so much everyone!! 💕

OL2: Eye Customization Preview

This is the second preview of the new MC Doll system Shawna created. This video goes into how you can customize the look of your eyes.

Of course the other features that showed before, like using any color you want, are available here. But there's now the option to add a secondary color to t...

OL2: Step 2 Prologue Screenshots

As the years go by, you and Tamarack continue to share happy days together 🥰️

And yeah, that is the Step 1 version of the background. The Step 2 look hasn't been made yet, aha.

OL2: Qiu's Bedroom Sketch (Step 2)

Surprisingly, we've got a look into Qiu's teen bedroom before their childhood one! You can see this location in Step 1, however it's not in any of the five base moments. However, you stop by Qiu's room in the prologue of Step 2 no matter what, so we need that for the upcoming S2 preview expansion...

GB Patch Discord Emote Poll: September 2024

Hey, for the second month in a row the 10th was a day off for me. So, here's the emote poll one day later than usual!

OL2: Tamarack Step 2 Intro CG (Sketch)

There she is!! 😊

The current Step 2 Preview skips the day before school. However, in the true version of the prologue this will be the first time you see Tamarack as a teen.

Also, I shared a CG sketch from Step 1 last month, but the color version won't be done for quite a whil...

OL2: Colorful Class Script Preview 3 (Step 1)

For one last script preview of this Moment, I've got a part two of Austin's interrogation. You can read the first part HERE.

OL2: Step 2 Prologue Screenshots

There's a lot more you'll get to do with your own character once the full Step 2 prologue exists. One example is getting to come out about a change in your gender or pronouns within the story itself!

October 2024 Guest Art: Character Poll

Hello everyone!

Normally this poll goes up on the 3rd of the month, but it was a day off this time. I've got it ready now. Last year we were preparing for the OL2 Kickstarter so there was no fun Halloween image. This year I feel like there should be something cute with Qiu and Tamarack in ...

OL2: Neighborhood Street 2 (Step 1)

And here's the last major Halloween location for childhood! It's the front side of that neighborhood you see the back of when walking out of the cul-de-sac. The yellow house with jack-o-lanterns is where Ren lives 💞

The red house with the skeletons belongs to someone else 😏

Project W Post: August 2024

It's a Project W Thursday! I usually post on the last Wednesday of the month, but this time we needed that for yesterday's beta build.

This month I have a very exciting ramble. For ages this project has consisted of vague concepts, disconnected scene ideas, and endless possibilities, but th...

OL2: Beta Build 1.4.5 🎃 (PC, Mac, Android)

Happy Halloween! In August, haha. Today's build adds Part 1 of the Trick or Treat DLC Moment in Step 1. However, next month won't be Part 2 of this Moment. In September there's gonna be more Step 2 prologue scenes added. The full version of the Halloween event will come out in October proper.

OL2: Trick or Treat Screenshots (Step 1)

What are you gonna go as? Or does your MC not wanna get dressed up?

OL2: Neighborhood Halloween Version (Step 1)

You've gotta have more than three houses to go trick-or-treating at! This is the front side of those houses you pass on the way to school.

GB Patch Discord Emote Poll: August 2024

Hello! This poll is going up a bit late since the 10th was a day off this month, but it's ready now.

In August we're gonna vote on replacing one of the older emotes in a different artstyle with one that better matches the rest of the set. Let's do the "swoon" emote. Currently, it features ...

And man, I love the pumpkin patch background by Vic Alen (VicAlen4 on Twitter). It looks so autumnal and chilly!

Kids are not the most subtle people, haha. Austin and Joey sit in the same desk group as the MC and Tamarack. This is what you've gotta deal with in school.
