My girlfriend and I finished it in one sitting, and we loved the demo! The sprite arts are so gorgeous and each detail (from Persephone's cornucopia earrings to the wheat-like braids in her hair) is wonderful! The backgrounds are also breathtaking! All the flowers in that one field are so pretty. Also this has got to be one of my favorite designs of Hecate as well <3 Love the purple flames and crescent on her shoulder aaaa.

Persephone is precious, and you can really feel Demeter's worry and determination for her daughter - as well as frustrations with people not willing to aid her. The writing is lovely, succinct and striking, highlighted by the enchanting music and aesthetic UI. I'm so excited for more <3

<33 is it okay to write a fic based off this zine? :3 will definitely credit!! (Also cute madoka icon aaa)

As someone in the aroace spectrum whose fav boys are fabian and riz (esp in a qpr), i adore this so much!! Thank you so so much 馃挏

Happy anniversary, Our Life! Though I'd heard of the game before, I only played a few months ago, starting a save file with my girlfriend... then I ended up so addicted to it that I stayed up til 2-3 am after work playing it. Then when I finished the DLC, I stayed up til 3 yet again to write Cove/MC fanfic haha <3 

 As a VN writer and longtime gamer, Our Life is one of the best visual novels I've ever had the pleasure of playing. It's so fun and never gets old despite how many times you replay. (The variations and callbacks are insane btw, kudos to the GB Patch team for that!) 

 It's so wholesome and lighthearted. The jokes never failed to make me laugh (I loved teasing Cliff and Cove). And the hurt/comfort moments were handled so excellently. The Reflections DLC moment got me bawling so hard. The realism and depth of these characters are amazing. 

 Whoever said the perfect man doesn't exist has never met Cove Holden. (And this is where I took a mini break to cry because I miss him so much.) Getting to know him was such a precious, irreplaceable experience. He's a wonderful friend and playing the platonic route was fun, but honestly? He's one of my Top Tier LIs of all time. Sweet, stubborn, and maybe a little bit spoiled (who can say no to him??), Cove is so easy to love. His struggles in dealing with change is so relatable. The way he can be /our constant/ in a life that's ever changing is so beautiful. I can't wait to replay the game and love Cove all over again!! 

 Derek was fricking amazing too. He's such hardworking thoughtful guy with issues that cut deep (I vibed with having a fam that's very dependent on you and struggling to figure out your career). 

 I'M SO EXCITED FOR BAXTER WHO I [spoiler alert] ACCIDENTALLY GOT AT THE SOIREE IN STEP 2 BY A STROKE OF FATE LMAO!!!

Like I said, the supporting cast was so fun and comforting too. Ma and Mom are lovely, and I adore Kyra and Cliff so much. Elizabeth really felt like an older sibling, and I love the Filipino rep <3 

 All in all, it broke my heart to say goodbye to Sunset Bird, especially since real life changed so drastically, so similarly to the end of step 3. But Cove was always there. Every, "See you tomorrow" came true (especially at the butt crack of dawn, oh Cove). There are no words to accurately describe how returning to Sunset Bird feels so comforting, how being surrounded by all these loving and lovable characters felt like family, and how seeing Cove again feels like home, the way our MC is home to him. 

 Thank you so much, GB Patch. I genuinely can't wait to see more from the Our Life Cinematic Universe 馃ズ 馃挏

this sequel is phenomenal!! I loved all the memes and shenanigans the lgbteens(+) got up to!! akarsha best girl but i adored seeing diya, min and noelle grow and develop too! it's also amazing to get to know more of the other girls on the baseball team <3

im so happy for this representation and insight into asian american kids! very nuanced and complicated and human! it's amazing to see the game tackling the nitty-gritty with a hopeful note of reframing it as a unique experience and the message it's never too late to learn about one's culture. life isn't optimal but we can do what we can to be happy with each other! thank you so much for this wonderful game!!! 

I didn't believe in love at first sight until playing this demo.

Okay, grandiose statements aside, this is was the most fun I've had playing a demo in a while!! I came fresh of binging Our Life 1 this week, and took a breather before Derek's route. Said breather did not give me time to intake air because this game took my breath away!

Customizing the MC is always fun! I nearly teared up at having multiple pronouns as well as the frequency of them. It made me incredibly happy to see "he" and "they" being interchanged often. The little doll makers so cute too. I admire yall's effort in all the little details!

Speaking of, I love everyone's little icons! The UI is just so charming and cute!! The character sprites are also so adorable! I loved Cove's side profile CGs and I'm happy to see more!

The music always slapped but aaa I really loved the piano and the strings here! "Qiu" and "Smooth" were my favorite tracks so far.

The writing is also so cool! I love the descriptions of nature and comparing the characters to such! And of course the leads are such cuties! Qiu is so charming and Tamarack is a delight, I can't wait to see more of them! [Spoilers I guess?] But Darren is so endearing, and Baby Baxter's so damn funny ashfkfk I'm excited to meet the rest!

I really love the subversions from OL1. From MC being (one of) the latest newcomers, an LI being the local, the charming school setting... it's something exciting and entirely new while keeping the spirit of the first game.

All in all, thank you guys for your hard work! I am very excited for this!

i dont know why i played this near midnight alone in my room but i did that and got scared sh-tless at the distorted face HAHA especially since i accidentally got the bad ending(?) with the curses... man that woke me up HAHAH i like it though! effect achieved i love horror games HAHA

(slight spoilers ig?)

i like cinder's monologue and hints that things aren't... quite right like the invasive questions, mentioning how humans are fascinated by what's scary... lol

the minigames were fun!! and i really love the music!! cinder's art is really cute-- and terrifying!! i love the final cg<3 a cool short game i played a few times and i'm really intrigued by cinder's thoughts and the different aspects of them in the different endings! if you guys do an extended version or hell, drop a lore doc i'd be so into it!

the demo was really, really fun!! and i'm sooo excited for the full game :D the chat style UI looks sleek and cute (i love the color-coded teardrops under MC's responses<3). i think its a good balance of being unique while giving me some of the mystic messenger/chat-based dating sim nostalgia <3 

the boys are all so interesting, and i appreciate how spaced out their intros were! i came here for dear sweet puppyish leo but ended up falling for the foxy tobias (kija's siren song luring me in yet again lmao #nightowlbestboy). i also loved that their banter and interactions with each other were natural and added to their characters <3 i got a soft spot for brooklyn & alexei and the comedy duo of rory and leo HAHA. milo's also really pretty and intriguing (who needs a vanderwood route? /j)

the letters and updates through emails are also delightful (leo greeting me on my birthday was such a lovely gift <3), and i can't wait for more! thank you for working hard on the game and take care of yourselves, guys!

such a fantastic game!! i really loved how immersive it was in making you feel like you joined a new discord server for an obscure fandom! the server aspect was super cool to play through! loved the calls too, the voice acting was superb <333 the npcs were cool (Salocin best dad), and i love love LOVE all the LIs, especially nightowl best boy who had me mad blushing the entire ride <33 Quest is really sweet and xyx is hilarious <3 i loved Toaster's route too, the parallels and mystery behind the server and all was amazing! i miss the game already aaa <3

OMGGG THANK YOU FOR NOTICING ME O///O HAHA I'm super happy to support and show my appreciation 'cause you guys are amazing <33 SUPER HAPPY WITH THE MICAH BRAINROT, THANK U FOR BRINGING HIM INTO THE WORLD HAHAHAHA

all i can say is: perfect. 10/10, the art is GORGEOUS, the pixel UI is too cute, the animation is so fly and smooth (i can't stop rewatching the opening animation clip),  and micah's design is just perfect? it's the first thing that caught my eye, and everything about him is so stunning! his stupid adorably streaked hair, his beautiful golden eyes, his cocky smirk with his little toof--not that, you know, i've been staring at my rival for hours on end or anything >< HAHA.

but yeah, the writing is fricken amazing!! the banter flows so smoothly and sends me laughing every second <3 it's been fun to replay and see different dialogue branches that flow so well (as a game dev writer myself always gotta admire that variation <3).  

the music's also stellar <3 the ost's been on loop in my spotify for the past four days i've known micah. not that i've been stuck in micah brainrot since binging the game in 2 hours, but since we're on topic!!!!

micah yujin is literally the most perfect combination of pixels i've ever had the pleasure to  banter/flirt with in a dating sim. the voice acting is hot--er, i mean, fuckin PHENOMENAL. he's sweet, charming, adorably annoying and annoying adorable with depth!! and (minor spoilers?) also a cat!! what more do you need? 

anyways idk if people are reading this but if you are - go have fun playing the game and support the brilliant devs! <333
