Is there a virus scanner on your device? Sometimes those automatically flag the game as suspicious. You might be able to make an exception that lets it run.

We're glad you enjoyed the game! As for the flickering, you can often fix that by pressing Shift + G and changing the renderer. Change it to ANGLE renderer, and that should help. If not that, turning off animations in settings might also do it. Hope that helps, and thanks for playing!

We're so glad you enjoyed the game so much, and thank you for your well wishes! As for your question about nicknames, unfortunately not. There will be a long list of nicknames players can choose from, and they'll even be able to make their own, so it would be impossible to write appropriate reactions to any of them. You can always headcanon your own reactions, of course! Thank you again so much for playing.

Sorry about that! Do you get any error messages when this happens? Are you playing on PC, Linux, Mac, or Android? Hopefully we can help.

Unfortunately, there is no Spanish language option for the game, and we will be unable to implement that either. We still really appreciate your interest!

Sorry about that! There shouldn't be any bugs, as this is the most up to date version of the game. It's possible there's an anti-virus program that's flagging the game, as this is something that happens sometimes. If there is, you might be able to create an exception for the game. If that doesn't work, message again and we can try something else. Thanks for playing, and hopefully we can figure this out!

The release window is around November, provided things go to plan. And Tamarack and Qiu do not have birthdays quite yet. Thanks for following!

Yes, and though it won't be extensive, you will also be able to express that nationality through certain Moments. Thanks so much for following!

Sorry about that! One thing it might be is a firewall or security feature that's blocking it. Not sure if that's something you can turn off or create an exception for. If not that, let us know and we'll see if there's anything else we can work out.

Unfortunately not. We appreciate you following the game, though!

Yes, you will be able to choose extracurriculars for you MC. A couple of examples are ballet alongside Qiu, and band with Tamarack. However, most won't be given a lot of prominence. They'll add a bit of background flavor, but there won't be any scenes involving them, unless you choose certain ones. Thanks so much for following!

Sometime next year, no definite date yet. Thanks for following!

Sorry to hear that!  Hopefully I can help. No error messages? Have you tried a clean reinstall, just deleting the whole thing and downloading it again fresh?

It is compatible with Linux! You want to download the version labeled "PC", and that should work for Linux as well. If you have any issues, just let me know and I can hopefully help.

We're so glad you've enjoyed the game so far! As for the scars, while we appreciate that would be a nice thing to add, it's unfortunately something a bit too complicated to implement properly. Not everyone would want that kind of attention either, so it is simply not brought up. But you can always headcanon their reactions however you like! Thank you again for playing.

We're so glad you enjoyed the game, and thank you for the feedback! For Qiu's name, this is the pronunciation guide we use: 

There should be three things that happen at the end: a final Step 3 scene, the credits, and then the Step 4 Epilogue scene (unless you have the Step 4 Wedding DLC). When you see the credits, just keep going a bit further after those, and the Epilogue scene should begin. If you're having more issues, just let me know and hopefully I can help!

Thank you so much! Happy to hear you enjoyed it.

The voiced name DLC should work with the Mac version. The instructions are on the specific page for that DLC. If you have any trouble with it, let me know and hopefully I can help!

Great! Glad you were able to make it work, and thank you for playing.

I'm so glad to hear that! Thank you so much for playing, and hope you enjoy.

Hurray! I'm so glad. Thanks so much for playing.

You shouldn't need to open the DLC files themselves. You want to put the .rpa files into the "game" folder in the larger folder containing Our Life. Where did they end up getting downloaded? Hopefully I can help you get it working!

I'm happy to help! When you downloaded the DLCs - the .rpa files - where did they end up? And where is the folder containing Our Life? You want to put those DLC files into the "game" folder within the larger Our Life folder.

It sounds like it might be getting flagged by whatever virus scanner your device is using. You might have to into that program and change the permissions to allow the app to run. Sorry I can't be more specific, but hopefully that helps!

If you can get access to your Steam version of the game, you can find the DLC files in the "game" folder (you can access the game's full folder by right clicking on it in Steam and going to "Manage" > "Browse Local Files"). The DLCs are files with .rpa at the end. You can send those to yourself via email, or Discord, or something like that. Then, simply put those files into the "game" folder on the Mac version, and that should work! If you need more help, just let me know.

Unfortunately, there won't be any translations for the game. We appreciate you following, though!

Unfortunately not at this time. There is a Mac version available here on itch, however, and if you have any DLCs, you can actually extract them directly from the Steam version and put them in the itch version, and they'll still work! Sorry to hear about your laptop, and thank you so much for playing.

Yes, this version of the game is Mac compatible. Thank you for following, and we hope you enjoy the game!

The full release will be sometime in 2026, but this fall there will be a huge update to the public demo build, so we hope you're looking forward to it. Thank you so much for following!

Unfortunately not, and it probably never will. Sorry about that, but we appreciate you following!

I can help you! If you know where the full game's folder is located, you can move the DLC files into the "game" folder of that full directory. The DLC folders should be labeled stuff like "dlc_step_1.rpa". If you need more help, just let me know, and thank you for playing!

The full release has been pushed back to 2026, however this fall there will be a huge update to game's public demo.  Thank you for following, and we hope you enjoy the update!

The main game is free, and there are additional story Moments you can purchase as DLC.

I'm so glad! Hope you enjoy the DLC.

Those are really fun ideas! We appreciate you thinking about the game in such detail. Unfortunately, things like that are beyond the scope of what we can do. There are so many ways a scar could have happened, or so many different kinds of allergies, it would be impossible for us to account for even a meaningful fraction. But you can always headcanon whatever you like! Thank you so much for following.

OK, that's helpful. When you bought the Wedding Story here on itch.io, it should take you to a page where you can download the "dlc_wedding.rpa" file. That should let you download that file either to your "Downloads" folder on your PC, or to a place of your choice. Once you see that, you have manually put that file in the "game" folder of the main game, wherever you have that. The main game should be in a folder labeled "OurLife-1.7.11-pc", and inside there is the "game" folder you need. Let me know if you are able to locate the "dlc_wedding.rpa" file, and if you need more help getting it into the right spot!

I'm sorry about that! Maybe I can help. I don't have the SmartScreen myself, but it seems like there is a way to disable to for apps, like our game. Here are instructions I was able to find, so hopefully these work:

1. Click Start, type Windows Security and open the app from the search results.

2. Open the App & browser control tab in the left pane.

3. Click on Reputation-based protection settings under Reputation-based protection.

4. Here, you'll find four different SmartScreen filters you can individually enable or disable. If you want to turn off the filter for files and executables, turn off Check apps and files and Potentially unwanted app blocking filters. The other two filters are for Microsoft Edge and Microsoft Store apps.

5. If you want to turn off SmartScreen completely, disable all four filters.

Hopefully that helps. If not, let me know and we can try something else. Thank you so much for playing!

I'm sorry to hear that! Hopefully I can help. What operating system are you using, and where is the DLC file (it should be named "dlc_wedding.rpa") being downloaded?

It's OK, that isn't a rude question to ask. Unfortunately, XOXO Droplets won't be made available for Android. We do appreciate your interest in the game, though!
