Our Life: Beta Build 0.76! (Windows, Mac, Linux, Android)
Happy August everyone! We've got the first beta build of the month. It's now officially time to say goodbye to Step 2 Cove (at least until the Derek DLC goes into production). I hope you had a really nice summer with him ❤
Android Download (the file says demo, but it's the beta. I can't seem to figure how to to get the build name to change, haha)
We'd also be happy to do more live chats in the discords to discuss current and future content. In July there were so many updates it was a bit hard to have a time to do the special chats, but if people still want those we can plan to set one perhaps this upcoming weekend. Let us know what you think.
New Content:
279,000 words in total
The final Step 2 scenes were added
Some edits were made to the end of Soiree to better explain things
A new CG is in there
Errors were fixed from before
Known Errors:
Saves from the old beta or the public demo will have errors if used with the new version. Please start a brand new file!
New events don't have voice acting for most characters yet
The appearance part of Cove Creator has some small issues with displaying the sprite layers. To try avoiding problems for now, cycle through all the options to get the one you want even if the one you prefer is by default displayed on the Cove Creator sprite.
If you run into any kind of error report screen, hitting the Ignore option once or twice will generally let the game continue past that point.
Thank you all for the support! It's gonna be really exciting to move on to Step 3 from here.

agree with mickymc, love being able to rp the mc the way I want, IMHO its what sets apart Great VNs and CYAs from just the good ones. Story line makes it good. Being who you want to be, responding how you want to respond makes it great!
Thank you so much <3
Been a hot second since I commented but I am commenting now! YAY! Really really love the last couple updates! So excited we'll be moving slowly into Step 3 territory now! Also, very happy about all the most recent opportunities for so great roleplaying in some of the latter Step 2 Events, so looking forward to that in 3 as well. I have a couple very characterized MCs now because of it and it's cause your game is just so easy to build more personalized characters, relationships and stories in. Amazing, as always!
Aw, thank you! It's great to hear you've had a good time with the updates and amount of choices. We're really looking forward to getting the Step 3 intro out <3.
Didn't see a new cg or the hand thing?
The new CG is at the very end, but you only get it if you're close with Cove ^^. And the hand thing is only art right now. It hasn't been programmed or added to any builds. I'm not sure where it mentioned it's in the game?
Gah! Why must Cove and Derek be so adorably lovable! I can't wait to see the Derek DL and Step 3! I love these boys sooo much.
They just can't help it, it seems. I'm glad you like them :D
That pre-start-of-the-year dawn surf though! <3 I love it all!!
Thank you <3 <3 <3
I love this! I enjoyed the new dialogue and insights that I saw so far. It is nice to see that things are still being added along the way. Genuinely having a great time here.
Thank you <3. That's wonderful!
ugh, i aDORED this ending so much... and cove is so sweet in it hrnng! I loved the little edits made in soiree, really nice and kept the original feel of the event~ Love the piggyback scene as well xD the fam getting worried was funny, like no i just wanted an excuse to wrap my arms around my sweetheart! The new cg is so beautiful, btw... his reactions are so cute! I really wish there was an option to give him one more kiss... but i suppose i'll have to wait for the next update! well done, once again! Also, I would really like to see another chat session... love it!
Haha, aw, thanks! It's great to hear you had such a nice time with the boy.
I LOVED the ending so much. That last CG was just beautiful! I also adore the little pact we could make with Derek, I cant wait for his DLC! He's too cute!
I'm really happy you liked it :D!
This ending is just so perfect! Every time I thought it would end, it just got better! 💙💙💙
Thank you so much! Cove is full of surprises, haha.
This update was so cute! I still can't believe Derek made that pact with us lmao
I'm glad you liked it! Derek is a sweet baby <3
