Hey everybody!
Our Life: Now & Forever is fully in development now that we’ve finished the final DLC for Our Life: Beginnings & Always. Step 1 is coming along well, and we’ll be able to release another demo expansion before the end of the year.
In late September or early October, we’ll be updating the current demo build with various improvements and even more scenes to play. The plan is to have the entire Step 1 prologue, one Step 1 Moment, plus a small preview into Step 2.
The way Our Life: Now & Forever works is that it’s divided into four time periods, what we call “Steps”. Step 1 is childhood, Step 2 is adolescence, Step 3 is young adulthood, and Step 4 is adulthood. Steps 1, 2, and 3 have a prologue, five free Moments, five optional DLC Moments, and a conclusion. “Moments” are individual stories that can be played in any order you want or skipped entirely. Step 4 is an epilogue and isn’t broken up into different Moments. It’s one long story.
We’d like the demo to give a fuller picture of the game experience by including a complete prologue, a full Moment, and letting players see what the changing of the Step is like. Currently, the demo only includes a partial look into the Step 1 prologue. So, this upcoming expansion will make a big difference to the experience.
The demo release will coincide with the launch of a Kickstarter campaign. You can sign up to be notified of when it goes live HERE.
We’ve also created new bio images for the two leads for Step 1 and Step 2. They’re quite pretty!
Thank you for following along with this project. I hope you’ll look forward to more adventures in Golden Grove soon 🍂
