Our Life: Beta Build 0.81! (Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android)

Here we go! It's time for the first beta of October, and what a build it is. We've finally added the fancy formal affair we've teased as being a thing in Step 3.

Because the Moment added, Charity, is the parallel for Fireflies in Step 1 and Soiree in Step 2, you can get extra scenes by doing those events first in your playthrough.

Windows/Linux Version 

Mac Version 

Android Download (I think I forgot to update the main menu image and it still says build 0.80 in the Android version. But it's 0.81 and I didn't wanna delay the release to fix that, aha)

New Content: 

  • 381,000 words in total

  • The Step 3 Moment "Charity" is now playable

  • There's a little main menu pop up that will be used in the future to alert players of new info

  • Errors were fixed from before

  • If you're at Fond or Crush during Step 2, the fourth level of relationship (Love), can be unlocked during Step 3. If you were indifferent during Step 2 then Crush will still be the highest option.

What's Missing: 

  • A fully functional choice-based Cove for Step 3, please use the Cove Customization Screen to determine things for now

  • The transitional narration between Steps 2 and 3

  • Getting to customize the appearance of the bedroom in Step 3

Known Errors: 

  • The phone screen sometimes comes in and out of view weirdly

  • 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

  • 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 for being here. Our Life is getting closer and closer to its initial release and we appreciate you sticking around the Patreon. We really hope you'll have a good time with the new content ♡

Oh my gosh... I didn't think it was possible to make Cove even more endearing, but playing through this update just made me fall in love with him all over again. He's so sweet, and everything he said and did just made my heart swell from how much love and care he shows to MC. At times, it even felt as if he was speaking to the player themself, due to some of the lines. That made me cry tears of surprise and joy... Cove, I wanna give you the world!!

Thank you very much ;v;! And yeah, a lot of the lines can apply to the player. If you ever want him around, you can always go back and play the game again. He'll be there <3

This one was to much! I really wasn't ready for what happened. It was a beautiful moment. I laughed, I cried, and I loved it all. I played it twice because I had a feeling that there was something else there if you weren't in a relationship with Cove yet. My theory was correct and it was so amazing to see.

oh my god! this update is probably my favorite. So much happened and I loved every single second of it. Being able to see how much Cove has changed is beautiful, him being able to compliment and dance with mc without it being too much was perfect. The bedroom scene towards the end was just...WOW, no words! The CG was gorgeous, probably my most favorite CG so far! Being able to have a bit of a heated moment with him without him getting too overwhelmed was amazing, I loved that he felt confident enough to go with it. This update is so perfect, thank you so much for your hard work, you guys are just amazing!

Love the update! I noticed that during the Soiree moment, when I go to pick up Cove and Cliff is fiddling with Cove's buttons, it says that Cove both "holds his arm out patiently, gaze distant" and then "Cove was holding his arm out, chewing his lip and looking over every so often to see if his father had finished yet". I have a cold and sporty cove, if that helps.
