Our Life: Now & Forever Mini-Demo Beta Build 0.02! 馃崉 (PC, Mac, Android)

Hi everyone!

Ever since the beta launched we've been adding extra polish and quality of life improvements to the build. I really appreciate all the kind words and feedback. Before the public launch we wanted to give you the chance to access the new and improved version. 

There aren't any major additional scenes, it still ends in the same spot as before, but it is a smoother OL2 experience. If you intended to play the beta again to try new options or haven't had a chance to try out the original, I'd recommend using this build instead.

Save files from the previous build won't work perfectly with this new version.  You would have to start a new file for things to be error-free.

New Content:

  • There's a couple more references to the MC's details

  • You can acknowledge your chosen nickname though, because you've just met these people, the two of them don't usually go right to calling the MC by a nickname themselves

  • A handful of new MC doll options were implemented, the MC icon also closes their eyes in some expressions 

  • You can now use a Randomization button on the MC Appearance Screen

  • We've added info buttons to the Dynamic Screen

  • The buttons on the Preference Screen have been updated

  • The mat image at the end of the game had its finished version added

  • Some small errors were fixed, a bit of rewording was done, and a few more choice options were added

Thank you for playing! It's been so great finally being able to share builds with people, haha. Though, as always, these beta builds are unreleased content for testing and have to be kept private.

I regret playing this beta. Because it is just amazing. I want to play now the whole game even though it s not ready T_T. It is like the next level with all the choices and everything, especially relationship dynamic and future jealousy options. Thank you so much for your hard work!

That was super cute! :) The additional animations for the characters when they're speaking were nicely done. I'm also looking forward to playing around with the dynamic relationship statuses--that's such a cool feature. I liked the number of options in the original game but having more will be fun. Keep up the good work!

I noticed while playing that when you introduce yourself he will (if your character has a nickname) use that without being told it, then your character will correct him and tell him to call you by your nickname.

The art tho... wow. As for the update, totally dig the in-game additions like implementing the MC's nickname and Tamarack commenting on MC's heterochromia. The only problem I have so far is during the relationship system where the text box of the tutorial cuts off the bottom part of the relationship descriptions. Hope this helps, and thank you for all the hard work!

Even the previous demo version was so cute and now that Qiu nicknamed my MC for the first time, it made me smile 馃挄

Thank you! I'm really happy with the new additions. The game really does flow better and the eyelashes on the MC doll were perfect. I also enjoyed the update on the nickname, it makes me happy that they can actually use it now :) oh and Tamarack acknowledging when my character had heterochromia was super cool

Apologies if this has been addressed in discord or elsewhere! Just something I noticed while messing around, there鈥檚 no character limit for our MC鈥檚 first or last name. It can just keep going off the screen lol, might cause issues in the future or somethin!

As always thank you for all your hard work! Just finished first play through and a couple of things I noticed: 1. Info box cuts off or blocks the contesting/unassuming/teasing/idolizing descriptors as well as crushes. 2. You can tell Qiu you think he鈥檚 pretty, but I don鈥檛 see the same option for Tamarack? And that鈥檚 all I recall for now. I gotta say, I adore the character building. I like the added nuance to the interactions so far. Love the additions to the doll maker (Eyelashes!) Are there more coming?

Hello, I noticed an issue where upon checking your details in the info tab an error message appears that forces you to either roll back or ignore it. I hope this feedback helps, thank you as always for your hard work!

Did you load a save or start a new file within this build? And can you tell me what the error said? Thank you for playing!
