[okthatsgreat]

dating simulator where it starts normal but it slowly becomes clear that all of the romanceable characters are attempting to cover up an extremely specific murder they committed a year ago before you arrived

Demo news here!

(From the desk of GB ✍️) Hello everyone! Since the demo updates are gonna be different going forward, I wanted to make a whole post about what to expect. Typically, we'd make little updates to round out what's in the demo better while still keeping it (somewhat) demo-sized. Now though, we're going over the top. We want to use the demo to give our players something fun to spend their time on! If that makes it a confusingly long demo, that's alright.

The next demo update will happen Fall 2025! And that's because it will include all of this:

-The Step 1 Moment "Fancy Fun" (already in the beta)

-The rest of the Step 2 prologue (it's the length of two Moments, not yet in beta)

-The Step 2 Moment "Assistance" (not yet in beta)

That is four times larger than a typical demo update and a ridiculous 110,000 words of new content. Also, this is in addition to what's already there, so in total we'll have a demo with two full prologues and four entire Moments.

So, what does that mean for the beta testing build? All that upcoming content will be released in the beta first before it becomes public later this year. And even after the major demo update, the beta will still have more than twice as much content as the free demo (several more Step 1 Moments and the ending of Step 1) and the beta will continue getting more Step 2 Moments while the demo does not. It's still very much worth the while!

We're hard at work getting more and more programming/writing done each month. Step 1 is so close to being finished, but it'll take a while to make major progress into making Step 2 more playable. I'm looking forward to when we can share a a bigger picture of the OL2 experience with everybody 😄

maybe if we hype up text based games, then it will encourage more ppl to take a crack at making the story based games they want

Get to know Olive Miller! Turns out, he's from another planet. Apparently all of his quirks were just due to culture shock and him doing his best not to stand out.

You're the first person to learn his secret, but you still don't know why he came to Earth. One thing's for sure: He'll need some help blending in.

Some of Licht Klein's best quotes

"I suppose being ridiculously earnest could be considered a virtue, but... you should give up on me already. I'm not going to change how I feel—or how I act—no matter what you say."

"I get it... you're radiant."

"Your ears are bright red. (...) I did it on purpose. In case it annoyed you." (—Licht trying to make Emma give up on him by annoying her)

"...Thanks for the sweets. (...) Especially these. They were good." (—Licht appreciating Emma's darioles)

"If you get lost in the crowd, who do you think has to find you?"

"...You're imagining things. (...) I'm the same as I always am." (—Licht being bashful after talking passionately about the theatre troupe)

"My body is covered in scars. You're not used to that sort of thing. I figured it'd bother you. I appreciate the thought, though."

"We're twins, Nokto and I. One of us brings good fortune, and one brings bad. (...) No matter where I go, I cause sorrow to everyone around me. It's clear which sort of fortune I bring. (...) If all I do is cause everyone sorrow... there's no point to me even being alive..."

"I'm begging you... stay away from me."

"This is for you. (...) Your hair clip broke when that cart almost ran you over, didn't it? (...) Anyway... that's why I went into town first thing, before my day started." (—Licht gifting a hair clip to Emma)

"You're going back to the palace, right? I'll walk you partway there."

"...So in other words, you want me to go to this social function with you. (...) I think... ...No."

"Give me back the woman I love." (—Licht to the obsidianite carriage driver who tried to harm Emma)

"After Mama died, Nokto spent less and less time at the palace, and... I discovered what loneliness felt like. We'd spent our lives together, every waking moment, and... it was hard to be without him. It hurt, every single day."

"Just by living, I bring sorrow to everyone around me, and even if I die, I'll still bring sorrow to everyone around me. I don't know what's best, or what's right... I don't know how to atone... I don't know anything..."

"Maybe... I've just been using that old saying... as an excuse to avoid everything. I killed my mother... I ruined Nokto's life... I put you in danger... I don't really believe that I can... make anyone happy."

"I feel kind of pathetic. (...) It's like I'm only ever showing you the worst sides of me."

"When I'm with you... it almost feels like I'm starting to find all the emotions I lost when I was a boy. Pleasure, delight, happiness... A sinner doesn't deserve to feel those things. So I gave them all up. But you always affect me. You mess with my heart. That's why I hate you."

"I wanna hug... Please?"

"Rather than losing myself and aggravating your injury, I'm going to please you even more than usual. I can satisfy you just like this. ...Or do you dislike this kind of service, my lady?"

"You should get some rest. I'll see you back to the palace. There's nothing you can do for him by being here. ...If you're that worried, I'll keep an eye on him." (—Licht reassuring Emma in Rio's route)

"You're so lovely, and so kind, and so warm, and so kind, and so lovely... Hang on..."

"And the seventh is a good-for-nothing womanizer." (—Licht describing Nokto)

"I just remembered how I used to fall asleep when you were explaining military jargon to me. (...) And you never woke me up. You're weirdly nice sometimes." (—Licht to Chevalier)

"I want to become like you. You can dazzle anybody with your strength, and you can see the path to victory in any situation. That's what I need to be, too. I'd never say that to his face, though. That's so embarrassing." (—Licht thinking about Chevalier)

"I punched a whole bunch of Tanzanitian princes. (...) I solved things with my fists." (—Licht talking about his own diplomacy tactics to Nokto)

"Nokto is the only person I can tell something like this to." (—Licht's thoughts)

"I can't believe I'm taking Nokto's advice. Something's got to be wrong with me. But I don't think he was wrong. If I can get her body to be addicted to mine, then her heart won't leave, either." (—Licht's thoughts about Emma)

"I want you to be so obsessed with me that you can't bear to be apart from me ever again." (—Licht's thoughts)

"I want you to adore me so much that you can't think straight." (—Licht's thoughts)

"Keep paying attention to me. Keep adoring me. Keep loving me." (—Licht's thoughts)

"I just don't believe in God's good faith. Besides, my only god is Emma. I believe in her over any Tanzanitian God, even the God incarnate. (...) You don't want to pay the price for manipulating my God, either." (—Licht to Azel)

"You're more normal than people think." (—Licht to Clavis)

"Keep paying attention to me. Keep adoring me. Keep loving me." (—Licht's thoughts)

"I can't help it. I just want to kiss you every time I see you."

"You were super cute."

"Duh." (—Licht's reaction to the soldiers talking about him and Emma being so in love)

"No. No carrots." (—Licht reacting to Yves saying every steak pie needs carrots and peas)

"My goal is to get better at cooking. I want to at least be able to crack an egg without dirtying the wall."

"Ngh... Stop laughing, you... demon." (—Licht to Chevalier mocking him)

"I... I hate women like you."

"I adore you... So much that words aren't enough. Please stay with me forever more."

"I want Emma to see me as a romantic interest. Not as a friend. How do I do that? (...) ...I don't know why I bothered asking you." (—Licht to Nokto)

"When I think about how you never give up, even when things go wrong, and how you're always so optimistic about the future— I'm finally realizing... I've just been running away, all this time. (...) There's nothing more pathetic than the idea of me giving up and running away while everyone else is still fighting."

"Would it be okay if I... visited you sometimes? ...No, it's cruel of me to even ask, isn't it?" (—Licht to Emma once her stay at the palace comes to an end)

"...He was right. They're really nonsensical. But there's one thing that's clear to me from reading them. ...She really did love us." (—Licht talking about his mother's letters)

"I don't know how to find happiness without you."

"...I've never seen one before. (...) To me, you were like that rainbow, even at the start. Always too beautiful, and too bright. (...) Now... this particular light is something I treasure." (—Licht seeing his first rainbow with Emma)

"Don't use Nokto as bait." (—Licht to Chevalier)

"You're so cute it's criminal."

"Feels weird to be called 'cute'. I'm an adult. And engaged."

"I kept trying to figure out how I could have you all to myself, without them interrupting us. And eventually I had an idea. (...) I realized I just had to build a place that's just for us."

"But so long as I have you, nothing's ever rough."

"That night, I had a dream. The start was the same as the dream I knew so well. A figure lay in the middle of that vivid crimson spectacle, and it should have been my mother. I felt suddenly cold and empty. All my calm vanished, and I ran to her side, but the woman lying in the pool of blood had turned into the woman I loved most. The sound that escaped my lips in that moment was strong enough to tear the whole world apart." (—Licht's thoughts)

Hi 👋

[purplewitch6666]

Guys! The Tamlin healing arc of our dreams? I'm afraid it's canon. He's finally being written with the love he was denied.

This Tamlin? This flower-crowned, temple-nuzzling forest husband? Ahhh I don't think I'm recovering from him anytime soon.

Go download @calanmine! Dally with your fav ACOTAR guy or guys. Yes, there are combo options. Yes, you can romance like it's a buffet.

[thetransenigma]

So I'm not sure what to name my sim. I'm thinking "Romancing with Riddles" and my girlfriend wants it to be called "Deep Dive" but I'm not sure. Maybe something else.

I'm working on two, actually.

One is the one you guys wanted. The other is a Gotham Riddler and Gotham Penguin with player. That one is for my girlfriend.

I'm also thinking of posting the game in parts that way I can get real-time feedback and add things you guys want. Idk.

[gb-patch]

Sure, it's spring, but there's always time for Halloween! (ESPECIALLY if it's Tamarack-themed.)

Here's her Halloween outfit, which she wears instead of a costume. She's a bit embarrassed to wear a proper costume at the moment 😓

Our Life: Now & Forever is a nostalgic Visual Novel where you create your own character and grow from childhood to adulthood with your two closest neighbors. It’s currently in development by GB Patch Games.

Get to know Aster Blakely! Sometimes when someone acts like they're special, they actually are. Though a barista by day, Aster is actually a mage that specializes in potions and enchantments.

He only reveals himself to those that seem supernatural themselves, and he's decided that includes you. He doesn't seem to know how, though.
