Right now we have 100 Patrons supporting us here :0. That's amazing and incredible! Honestly, I never thought we'd have this many people backing us, aha. It's been so wonderful to see the response Our Life has gotten and how people still have an interest in our older projects like XOXO Droplets.<...

And we're back again with the new poll for the month! Our Life isn't an option this time because the Kickstarter is happening very soon and we need to see how things go with stretch goals. After that we'll know what kind of content to include/exclude from possible future bonus polls for Our Life....

Hey, the poll from last month wrapped up and the end result was more choices/alterations in an event for Our Life! Sounds good to us. We'll begin work on expanding one of the Step 2 Moments that have been written :).

She's back and better than ever! Yes, Lizzie, Elizabeth, Liz, the MC's charmingly troublesome sister does appear during later Steps of the game. The MC's family is always there when it counts.

We showed off the sketch of this a while back and now it's finally done! This image will be used a lot as we promote the game and we think it's pretty dang nifty. I hope you guys like it too!

Hey!
All the new silhouette images for Step 1 moving to Step 2 are now finished. The next beta and the upcoming public demo update will have those plain colored silhouettes fully replaced with these prettier ones. Hooray!

And we've got another little update for all you today! It's not super long in terms of script content, but there have been a lot of neat miscellaneous improvements and additions.
2019-09-25 21:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostOur Life: MC Creation Screen Updated Mockup
I made some mockups of the new character creation screen for our programmer! It will likely be at least a little different when added to the game and I'm not sure when it'll actually be functional, but you can get an idea of where we're going. It's got two pages now. We'll probably add a third pa...

We hit that third tier goal a little while back and have been working on getting some new people to join since then. That's now been taken care of! We ended up hiring both an artist and a programmer.

We're working on an overhaul of the MC customization feature. Here's an initial look into what we've got. It'll have all the same options as before, plus more! You can already see one of the new options, eye color~

Along with the new Moment cut-in that's being voted on, we also added one to the prologue! Plus there's a little motion to how they appear on screen now. Pretty nifty.

And here's a partial update for you guys to try out! We're still in the process of making the extra-big and polished update, but we felt there was enough to be worth sharing now. Especially since we know people are excited to see more of the Step 2 stuff~
Our Life: Next Cut-In CG
Hello!
We've got another quick poll for you guys. The Moment "Shopping" has a little Cut-In CG that shows off what charms you can pick from. We'd like many, though unfortunately not all, of the other Moments to have visuals like that. But since not every Moment will have one we're gonna let...

Hey!
We're working on making various improvements to Our Life, including parts that are in the demo. One of the the most noticeable is the updated transitional images when you're going from one Step to the next.
The new versions are significantly prettier and more thematic, haha. ...

We have some great news! The basics for a brand new feature in Our Life are working and we're excited to share it. This is the Voiced Name screen.
