VN Ren'Py Our Life: Now & Forever [v1.4.9 Beta] [GBPatch]

[un!code]

I obviously don't want the devs to rush or feel pressure, of course. But maaaan, waiting until the end of 2025/early 2026 to play the complete game makes me so bummed. From what has been shared with us thus far it seems the sequel will be even better than the first game, and to me that's saying a lot because the first game was peak cuteness.

i dont like this being here

Don't like what being here?

OL2: Texting Emojis


To really complete your texting experience, a set of emojis was made for the game! Which ones would you send? And what do you think Qiu and Tamarack use ?

Oh, man, this game is going to have more customization than I thought! I can't wait to play Step 2 :3 The ones I’d use the most are definitely the upside-down smiley and the thinking face emoji, paired up with the Tear Face 2, lol.

This might be a SFW thread, but it's a Adults only NSFW pirate site. We don't give a shit that you "don't like porn". Too fucking bad. Ye are acting like 14 year olds, and going after users is a no-go.
Don't do this shit again.

Game looks really nice, but, what is it doing here?

Ever heard of a recording from start to finish of Hamilton (the musical) ending in PornHub? Same principle ig lol

Game looks really nice, but, what is it doing here?

Because the creator is open to implementing sexual or NSFW content. She did it for the first game, thus why the sequel is here (and it's been said that it may possibly have NSFW content, but it hasn't been confirmed, since she wants to focus on finishing the game right now). Ironic that people talk about others sexualizing minors, since by their logic, that is what the creator is doing by being open to making NSFW scenes involving them. We wouldn't tolerate it with real minors, right?

So, to that person, maybe, hear me out, the characters are not minors but characters. If they were legitimately anything likened to a real minor or even portrayed realistically (on an artistic level) you shouldn't even be engaging with this thread or want them on this site. It's very icky and inappropriate to pretty much accuse someone of inappropriately interacting with minor. Please do better.

I keep wondering exactly how tall the Our Life MC and Love Interests are. I'm on my 14 or 15th playthrough and it occurred to me that either we're all extremely short in Step 1, even for 5th graders, or the adults are all extremely tall. The two instances that stick out the most is when you go to school for the first day, and Darren goes to greet his mom, but he hugs her legs. Second instance would be when meeting Qiu's mom, she gets down low to the point her chin is near her knees when greeting you. It's the same even if you select tall as the selected option.

Maybe all the adults are giants and we'll also become giants once were 18+

If I remember right in the Walks moment after catching the nuts Qiu mentions being the smallest of the boys, but if you make the PC small than you say that you're even smaller than him

Basically, a more wholesome version of Attack on Titan

Qiu, Baxter and Darren are all

as kids LMAO, I think all three of them even out into average in Step 3... (qiu averages out in Step 2, though Renee might still be considered tall in Step 3... her height isn't confirmed yet from what I've seen). I think Shannon is pretty tall for a woman, she's def taller than our Mom but I dunno. I think the adults are just tall rather than the MC being extremely short, especially since you can say you're tall and be around the boys height so you're just tall for a 5th grader. You saying this now makes me think about how SHORT Tamarack must look LMAOO.

With Qiu's mom I'm pretty sure she just did that out of respect to us. Meeting us eye-to-eye and giving us the same equality she gave our mom?

I like to think qiu is about 1,68 in the final step and their friends still point out their height lol
Also tamarack headcanon is that she is about 1,50 [because i love a small queen]

Super cute, though I wonder if these will just be peppered into certain set answers, or if we'll have an opportunity or two to actually reply with basically any emoji we want for a reply and maybe get a unique reaction based on what it is? I kinda doubt it given how many there are, though it'd be a cute one-off thing.

I think basically how it'll work is the emojis will be categorized into certain groups or something, and depending on what you reply you can have your choice of the appropriate emojis to use, since we probably wont have much freedom to say exactly what we want.

I’m so excited for more qiu content in 1.4.9. Tamarack is my favorite but I also want to help qiu so bad from what we have seen in the previews.

OL2: Qiu Step 2 Intro CG


Step 2 Qiu is here! And by the looks of it, they haven't gone anywhere anytime recently, haha. But their introduction CG is finished and turned out fantastically ✨

You were right on time for more Qiu content.

 

[Eemiikremk]

I had some hopes we would get the demo update today, but the CG is very good\pretty. I love the art style\character sprites.

I have faith we might get an update on Halloween. It's Qiu's favorite holiday and GB has a penchant for doing stuff like that (for example, Cove's birthday is in November because that's when the first game released.)
