Greetings,
This is the writer of 'The best days of our lives'.
The release dates of 0.3 was announced earlier today (with the public release being the 12th of this month)
So, here I am (again) to share a few things about this update and the future of this game in general.
---
1. Once again, this will be a very linear update without any branching. HOWEVER, this will be the last one to be like that.
Starting from 0.4, we'll
slowly start rolling out the different story branches one by one.
On a related note, expect to see (or not see) some minor bonus content in 0.3 - based on the choices you made in the game so far.
---
2. (UPDATE: Apparently, the save files are completely unusable. Sorry about that, will try to make sure it doesn't happen again)
There is a small chance that SOME of the players' save files from 0.2 may not work properly in this update and I'm truly sorry about that.
One of the biggest problems with using a point system in the game is - even a minor mistake means the old save files suddenly become unusable. I've tried my best to make sure the problem doesn't come up this time, but if it does - I apologize for the inconvenience.

3. (Despite seeming otherwise) there will be no 'harem route' or 'forced love routes' in this game.
I should be able to explain about this (in detail) in the next update. But for now, I can only request you to take my word for it.

4. When it comes to TBDoOL, one of my goals (as a writer) is to make each route feel very distinct in their approach towards romance.
For example: One route may feel soft, simple & conversational, while another is more exaggerated in a fun, cinematic way, another which is very emotionally charged and so on.
This seemingly simple element of the story is something I've been working extra hard on.
So, I kind of wanted to say to our players - 0.3 marks the first step towards that goal and please look forward to a lot of good things in the near future

That's everything for now. Looking forward to hear your thoughts on 0.3 soon.
Take care & stay safe.
