Bittersweet coming of age VN
Our Life is a VN about a person growing in a peaceful beach town with their friends and families. It's done using RenPy engine, so gameplay-wise everything is smooth. The art style is sharp and consistent. The music fits the mood of the game well. Now with that out of the way I'll talk about the main part, the story. Disclaimer: I've completed the free version without any DLCs and I'm not going to play them. The game's story tells of 4 periods in life of the main character, each period is basically a couple of slice of life type of small stories. There's no tension, no build-up to anything. The characters seems like they came out from slice-of-life animes like Azumanga Daioh or K-On. Everyone is always happy and is very friendly, and whenever someone's upset, it gets resolved lightning fast. In this regard the story is a bit boring. However the overarching line of childhood friends growing up and growing apart is done well, I enjoyed it. The choices, and there are a lot, seem to matter, even some of the small ones, though I felt like a lot of them, like "what kind of crepe do I get" were there just as a fluff. Those choices do actually change the following text, but they don't really affect the story. The story is very heavy on LGBT and gender themes. As a regular dude I just found it annoying, but people for whom these topics are close will probably enjoy those options. Overall the main impression I've got from this game is that it feels like these fanfics that girls like to write where they "ship" characters with each other. Everyone likes and wants to marry everyone, everyone is happy, all ends well. I admit this kind of narrative isn't for me, but I do think this is a good VN overall. If you like this kind of narrative, or if gender/LGBT issues are close to your heart, it's 5 stars from me. Otherwise it's 4, because it's still more or less solid and is free.
