Hey! Today we've got a poll to add a new emote into the private GB Discord server. This time, I'm thinking we'll add a cute object rather than a character! We could go with something iconic from the OL series. Things like money and a pretzel and bikes and acorns are already options, so it's stayi...

In Step 2, you will automatically have some school classes with the Qiu and Tamarack. But the leads who are in your homeroom are random! You might not have your buddy there with you just 'cause you're house neighbors. Don't worry, that won't make you lose many interactions. It's just another litt...

Next month's guest art will be a scene from Our Life: B&A that didn't get a CG. Very specifically, it will be of the different outings with Cove from the Moment "Happiness" in Step 3.

It's been a long beta road, but we now have a full Step available for testers! Saying goodbye to childhood is sad, but at least the gang will be back for Steps 2, 3, and 4. In a way, things are still only beginning for your Our Life life 💕
Oh man, we're getting dangerously close to these Q&As being two+ hours. Thank you to ...

The latest Tamarack CG is still coming along. This one has a ton of alterations because her whole pose changes. Usually, CGs only have arm pose alterations.

The sun is setting on Golden Grove 🥺️. Not for the whole game, of course, but for Step 1. Look at that barbershop, it'll be gone the next time we see a BG of this location!

Some more completed cut-in images for Step 2! As teens, Qiu and Tamarack still have their iconic moves; writing special notes on paper and folding paper to make it more fun 🥰️.

Voiced lines are starting to come in for the cast of kiddos! Here's our very first example for the game, it's Ren as a twelve-year-old. What a cute rascal 🥰️. It was great working with the VA.

Tamarack is hard at work! Someone's gotta keep those leaves from getting out of line.
I actually found it a bit hard to choose the CG scenes for Step 2. I wasn't sure if I should have them happen under similar circumstances as Step 1 or put them in different types of Moments. I went with th...
