Our Life: Beginnings & Always news & patch notes

Hooray! The first Our Life apparel merch is live! I think it's really nice 🥰️.

You can pre-order it now from Makeship. They've got Black Friday sales coming soon where fans get a 10% discount on all products and free shipping on orders over $100! But if you sigh up for the Makeship newsletter today (the 21st), you will get early access to the discount.

The hoodie can only be produced if it reaches 300 pre-orders. If that happens, the hoodie will be put into production and will ship out next year.

The Hoodie comes in XS to 3XL and ships worldwide. You can see all the info on the store page!

The Step 3 DLC for Our Life: Beginnings & Always is officially out!

FEATURES:

1.2 Change Log:

• There are now two MC "cut-in" images! These are small, partial CGs that actually show parts of your character with all your customization details included. You only see them if certain choices are made, it's possible to play through the entire game without getting either.
• The character creation screen itself was updated to include new details that are important to the cut-in CGs.
• The relationship selection screen was redone to be easier to use.
• The Cove creator got a pop-up to explain what to do with it.
• CG 2-2 was remade to better fit with the rest of the game's style.
• Various errors were fixed and small tweaks to certain lines were made.

• Put out Our Life: Beginnings & Always 1.2 (which fixes the glasses error, other small problems, and adds about 60+ more voiced names). Should be done before the end of the month!
• Release the Step 3 DLC. This is on track to finish in two or three more months.
• Officially announce Our Life: Now & Forever- a second installment in the franchise with the best features of the first but with a new cast, setting, and story. More info should be coming in three to four months.
• Launch the Step 4 epilogue + wedding DLC. Estimates get vaguer at this point. It will likely be mid-2021.
• Release the Derek Romance DLC and the Baxter Romance DLC. These are also probably going to come out mid-year, leaning towards later 2021.
• Put out a playable demo for Our Life: Now & Forever. That'll be late 2021.
