We've got proper autumnal weather coming up for some of the game's Moments! Here's a couple neat background alterations of familiar locations.
2023-12-06 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostHappy 5th of the month! It's the final question collection of 2023. These are gonna be the last questions of the whole year. It's truly absurd.
Here you can ask me things you're wondering about for our games or company and they'll be answered at the end of the month an an audio recording (w...

Getting to go to the dance with Qiu in order to dance is great, but getting to pretend to be a pirate after the dancing is over is perfect 😌.
Though, you don't have to fight with swords, there's a ton of options for hanging out with Qiu in that scene. I just thought this chunk made for a...
2023-12-04 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostAnd here's the Step Poll! Step 4 isn't an option because Qiu and Tamarack don't have Step 4 designs yet. Derek doesn't have a Step 1 version in any game, but he has been featured as a kid in a prior bonus piece so it'd still work even OL1 leads at Step 1 did win.
Hi!
Next month's guest art will be bringing in the new year. It's wild. But because of that, the premise will be the characters generally celebrating. So what you can all vote on is which characters will get to show up. I like to have new year pieces that highlight the leads of a game...

Hi everyone 👋
Fall is already nearly over. It went by so fast, but we made the most of it. Our Life: Now & Forever has progressed leaps and bounds compared to the pace it's been at since bac...

Okay, the second Moment of Step 1 is finished! Well, it's in a state where it can be beta tested. It'll still have fixes and improvements along the way. Still, you can now play Wheels from start to finish and choosing any option you want. You can also see all the differences between Walks and Whe...

Wow! Rare Tamarack's parents lore 👀. And also Baxter being a little punk.

Tah-dah! We know now the name of the third Step 1 Moment- Fancy Fun. And the chapter card gives you an idea of something that's going to happen in this story 💕
But most excitingly, it's already fully written. I finished the whole script a little earlier this month and I'm already a good ...

Yes, Cove James Holden is once again available in plushie form! Though this time he's eight-years-old and has some nifty extra features. He comes with a detachable firefly ball that actually glows, and his iconic pink cast does too.
Here's the latest completed background! It's lovely ✨. You might get to see it briefly in the Moment Wheels, but it'll be a much more prominent location in future scenes.

Haha, I am child as much as the MC is. At least some MCs, this is a personality based alteration that doesn't always happen.

It's been a while, so here's another piece of old concept art from the game's development! These were the possible concepts for the dance hall background where Qiu learns ballet and Baxter practices his ballroom steps. The version that made it into the game is B, though it got a lot of extra deta...

Wow, this is a lovely scene, with the rain outside the window and everything. But don't get too excited! Currently this is one of those situations where a whole extra art piece is needed for something quite small in the story. There's not a "hang out with Qiu at his place during the rain" Moment,...

Very, very good news. There's finally another Our Life: Beginnings & Always plushie on the horizon!! And this time it's gonna glow 👀✨
Yes, it is Cove again. I wonder what glowing thing might be associated with him. As we all know, Cove James Holden is not a predictable boy, ahah 2023-11-17 19:00:24 +0000 UTC View Post
When you make it to the park to ride around in Wheels, there are two major branches for how you spend your time there. One of them is racing with Qiu and Darren. The current beta ends right before the end of the competition, the beta we're working on now finishes it. I'm sure it'll be a thrilling...

There's the fancy man in his full colored glory. And there are actual colors there! He's grown past his black and white and gray only phase. He does still like suits though, haha.
2023-11-15 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello!
The Kickstarter ended a little while ago and a lot of very exciting expansions for the game have come from that. I didn't post a lot about it during the campaign, so I'm putting the new elements all in a big lump post for Patreon. Now you can stay in the loop about what the game will...

You hang out at the park in Wheels and it mentions there is more to the park than the bit that you see then. Well, now you're seeing the other side of it! How charming ✨
2023-11-12 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostHello! I've got the normal emote poll ready to go. Last month's emote vote replaced an older image that was drawn in a different style, it also changed the character. Now we've got an updated "Hi" emote featuring Margret from Lake of Voices.

One option in the Moment "Wheels" is to join a race against Qiu and Ren. But if you don't wanna do that, you, Tamarack, and Baxter of all people are gonna have to find a way to entertain yourselves. It goes as well as you might expect, haha.

Okay, I'll post one more time about the Kickstarter to share this cute bonus image of Renee and mention that this is the final 24 hours (technically less than that, actually) of the campaign! I can't believe it's nearly over ðŸ˜
The two leads aren't always in best spirits during Step 2, but they're not always super unhappy either. So, they've gotten a slightly annoyed, but also kind of neutral, new expression to use when things are only "meh" rather than "miserable", haha.
2023-11-06 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostHello! The Kickstarter isn't over just yet, there's a few days left, but we're keeping things normal around the Patreon. So, I've got the standard question thread on the usual day.

And here's a preview of the final section of the OL1 artbook! It includes concept art, design sketches, and additional promo things that weren't in the game itself. We're onto final touches and then it'll be complete :D
2023-11-04 18:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostHere's that second poll I mentioned. This vote will set how old Tamarack is in the December guest art. And you're welcome to leave a comment to mention what hairstyle she should have for Steps besides Step 1!
Poll closes November 8th
2023-11-03 18:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, it's time to vote for the next piece of bonus art. This is gonna be the final one for the entire year 😳! Last December Qiu was featured and it's been a while since Tamarack had a stand alone image, so I think she ought to be the character included. This poll will determine what winter...
