OL2: Beta Build 1.4.3 😴 (PC, Mac, Android)
Phew, we've got the build ready just in time! Thank you for the patience with this update. It's been a busy month. But we can now share the first look into the Step 1 DLC with half of Slumber Party ✨
Also, this event does split at one point and getting one branch will show you more scenes than the other version right now. I'll mention at the bottom how to get the extra story.

New Content:
Slumber Party Part 1
Small fixes to typos/errors from the prior build
New sprite alterations and background alterations
New full-sized CG!
###################
Now here's the little spoiler, if you want to know. This chunk of the script includes more scenes if you get upset and choose to have Omi and Opa come downstairs. Sticking with just Qiu and Tamarack stops things sooner, since the continuation for that is in Part 2.
Have fun with your sleepover!

I tried to download the beta build but it said that the file no longer exist
i just finished playing through the first part of this step and it warmed my heart when Tam acknowledged the fact my mc put on a bonnet for when she goes to sleep! i didn’t think their would be an interaction so it was such a nice surprise <3
Just now realized the text at the bottom about it lasting longer if taking the upset route, I'll be looking forward to trying it out!! I shouldn't be surprised though, so far the way that these types of choices (being upset, running away, feeling embarrassed, etc.) have been handled in the games, have been amazing. Bugs and such aside, I don't ever feel shamed for making decisions for my characters, 'cause I can trust that there's a way to either fix it, talk it through or generally just, not feel like one is accidentally messing it all up because of one or just a few "bad" choices. That, along with the rolling back with mouse/the "back" button on android, makes me less anxious to try out the choices I'd usually avoid, getting a lot of replay-ability. I would like to say that I can't wait to see the rest, but with the amazing characters, art, writing and everything else that we are getting, I'd understand the need for proper rest and downtime with friends. Make sure to take care of yourself and know that even if you don't reach all of your planned goals for the month, you still deliver some absolutely wonderful work!! Take care <3
Struggling to download the android version, not sure if anyone else is having the same question
I'm sorry. Have you tried the mirror version? Sometimes google drive doesn't work with Android.
yeah i wanted my mc to be excited for the slumber party from the get go but got the negative i wish they hadnt made it a veritable slumber party no fun at all text:) i could however turn it around and make my mc have fun be positive later but it started off that way
i’m soooo excited but i’ll wait till next month to play it fully !!
Off topic to the current patch, but there should an option to tell Darren and Baxter I don't think they're cute as soon as I meet them to continue the trend.
really loving all the little tweaks and additions to the earlier steps just as much as the new dlc step content!! thank you so much for your work as always <3
I’ve seen some other people mention this, I also think the negativity toward the sleepover needs to be tamped down a bit. I did choose for my MC to feel bad that the neighbors always had to do favors for me, but the game seemed to take that to mean I was extremely moody and against this entire sleepover.
I was a bit confused when I chose the MC to be excited about the sleepover and then Granny said something and my MC started complain how the slumber party isnt fun. I am also curious on How Qiu & Tam will react to the MC's stuffie or if they do. Still to this day I have to sleep with a stuffie and I've have had many people react in different ways. (Random sidenote: Took years but finally found a keeper, My Boyfriend sleeps with Stuffies too) lol Also I don't think I've said this enough but I love your games.
Hey, I just played this moment and it was interesting, but I feel like I had some continuity issues. First two may be due to loading a save, but the rest is "contained" to the moment so I don't think so! - At the beginning of the moment, it says "You were going to the Baumann's place next. It was pretty much the last building in town you knew and hadn't been to yet." - but my MC went there previously already? Not only in the intro, but also in Fancy Fun. That one may be caused by loading a save though, I imagine. - Game assumes Tamarack's grandma is MC's "granny", which isn't something I have decided for my MC to think. But that may also be due to the save load. - I also had the line "You REALLY wished she hadn't made this a "veritable slumber party". You just wanted it to be over. No surprises, no "fun". This wasn't fun." - that segment doesn't really fit my choices. In the first choice of the moment I picked the "It was going to be fine" option, so unsure but tentatively optimistic I guess. And in the second choice, when learning thar Qiu would be there too, the "Your heart began to race. How were you supposed to sleep now?!" one, because my MC crushes on Qiu and he doesn't know how he's going to sleep with Qiu there. But that doesn't necessarily mean MC is so opposed to the slumber party in itself, right? And it continues later, considering the MC was then uninterested in the game Qiu suggests playing and so on. I wouldn't have picked that sort of thoughts at all as spending time with Qiu and playing with them and Tamarack is fun - it's only the sleeping that's an issue. - The biggest issue: since I chose for my MC to not know how he'd sleep after hearing Qiu would be there, it was a bit strange that he was thinking about missing his mother instead, once time to sleep came. She shouldn't be a factor here at all? Especially when Qiu supposedly "got it right" when asking if it's because MC's mother isn't there. Since, you know, it wasn't because of that at all. And it's worse in the choices where my actively MC thinks about how he misses his mom and I get a whole very emotional conversation about that but... well, it isn't the reason why doesn't feel right based on previous choices. It would be about not having his own bed or something like that based on that Qiu choice before?
The first part is not that you've never visited the house before. It's that it's the last house on the street you've stopping by at for that day. But there are flagging issues that are making things negative when they shouldn't and not being able to choose other reasons to be upset. Thanks for sharing your playthrough details!
This was so cute so far, I cannot wait for the rest 😋😁
I'm so excited to play this and I can't wait for part 2
IM SO PLAYING THIS WHEN I GET HOME FROM VAYCAY.

yippee!!
So sweet!
Screaming, crying, throwing up (in a good way❤️)
yay :D
Omg im so excited! Can't play rn but when im home i'll do it!
I’m a little confused. How do you get Omi and Opa to come downstairs?
One of my MCs got it by missing Opal. If you choose one of the upset options when it comes to thinking about Opal being gone for the night you should be able to get it.
words and actions cannot express or describe how excited i am about this game and these characters 🙂↔️🤯🥹
Tam Tam like our bonnet…🥹 Well it's time to start the Tamarack suprematy fan club~😭
Aaaaahhhh! New beta and Dawntrail early access! What a day!
I am so excited for sleep over shenanigans
I think there's a problem, after the line of text that says "She had two surprises: Qiu and the magic shapeshifting bed. One reveal for each of her sleeves" the line of text that appears for me immediately afterwards is "You REALLY wished she she hadn't made this a "veritable slumber party". You wanted this to be over. No surprises, no "fun". This wasn't fun". Despite the fact that my MC at this point had been excited for the slumber party/Qiu's involvement, it feels like there was supposed to be text box options that didn't appear. I reloaded the event and it happened again so I didn't accidentally click anything without looking.
Thank you for mentioning that!
how exciting:D
I am crying, giggling, and kicking air, I KEEP SCREAMING "THIS IS SO CUTE!" that my dog had to check on me haha
Won't be able to have patreon for a while so glad I'll have the sleep over to make it ok 😭🙏
The master returns with a banger! Been waiting for this update for ages! (A single month or less)
seems a bit buggy... got "you just wanted this to be over" even though i choose no options with that mood. edit: oh, does this count as discussing of what occurs? if so i will delete this sorry.
Yeah, i got this textbox when I only selected "positive" responses as well
I won the slumber party game :D I wasn't even trying to, I just picked one of the options and it ended up being the one that caused Qiu to crack immediately XD I'm a genius.
LETS GOOOO ngl this is the moment I've been most excited for!!
let's get it, bout to arrive in sleep city
not at me also wanting to comment "lets get it"
AAAAA ON MY BDAYYY
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
I cant wait to get home so i can play it after work today!!
For clarity, will you now be working on step 2? Or is there a step 2 of slumber party? Can’t wait too try the update!
I'm still writing Step 1! But I'm almost done with it
Oh thank God. Not having a good day at work so I'm looking forward to this when I get home. 😭
I'm so looking forward to playing it!!! It's just what I needed after a long week. I'm so excited 💗😆😆😆💗
