Our Life: Beginnings & Always - Cove Wedding Story
A downloadable project for Android

This is an optional DLC for the free game Our Life: Beginnings & Always.

- End the novel by playing through your crafted wedding day
- Includes new character sprite art, background locations, and more
- Increases the overall playtime by multiple hours
To use these files you'll need to have the free base version of Our Life. It can be download HERE.
WINDOWS/LINUX/MAC:
1. Download the zip file after purchase and extract the zip to get a folder
2. Open the folder of your current Our Life Build and find the "game" folder inside. To view folders on Mac you might have to right click the application launcher and select "view package contents" and you may have to open a couple different folders before you find the "game" folder tucked away inside
3. Move or copy/paste the rpa file into the Our Life "game" folder
After that, the build you already had will now include all the extra content this DLC gives.
ANDROID:
1. Download the apk file after purchase.
2. Locate the file in your file manager and install it. You may have to give your file manager additional permissions to install from external sources.

4. If you have any more DLC to install, repeat steps 1-3 with any other DLC you're installing.

I was smiling from ear to ear the whole time!! This game and this DLC has my entire heart. <3
AHHH I'M SOBBING, THE VOWS, THE SPEECHES????
I will definitely buy this DLC once I finish the story!!♡ the sad thing is that I really want the nsfw moment on patreon but I don't have a card linked to paypal (I don't have one right now) TT
I imagine those versions are exclusive to patreon, Isn't there any chance of a paid NSFW version of the game being published on itch.io?
I am using the translator ;;
I'm sorry, the public game needs to remain safe for teens. So, we have to keep the adult stuff as just a Patreon bonus.
what is the name of your patreon?
Here! https://www.patreon.com/gbpatch
thank you!
Hello. The dlc doesn't take into account the fact that I chose to call Cliff “Dad” in Step 4, but I don't have the same problem with Kyra.
Is this an oversight?
It might be. Can you give more details on the conversations that happened in your story?
Hi ^^ okay so I just bought all of the DLC's (except the Baxter and Derek ones can't get them rn) I just wanted to know how exactly this works cuz after I bought them I played the game and all the DLC roots were still locked?(the ones where you make summer memories like the RV trip) Do I need to exit the game and re-enter for it to work/unlock? or is there something else I need to do? (oh and about the wedding DLC just want to make sure before I play it, how exactly do play I after I purchased it? sorry if this doesn't make much sense I'm sure how to ask this.) Thank you.^^
How you add them depends on if you're using PC or Mac or Android! There are instructions on the page. You'll know when the DLCs are implemented in the right way if you click on the DLC Info button on the main menu and it shows the DLC is unlocked on that screen. For the wedding DLC, you need to get engaged to Cove in Step 3 or 4 and then just keep playing after Step 4 ended. The game will ask if you want to continue on to the wedding story. Thanks for getting them!
Sorry for the trouble but I have one more question, I'm interested in buying the Our Life $10 Patreon packet I just want to make sure how exactly it's going to work, I'm mainly interested in the 18+ aspect of the packet, anyway my question is if I buy it is there a file/DLC kind of thing that you need to download? I won't be able to do a monthly payment so this is probably going to be a one month thing (and sometime in the future I'll purchase it again) I just want to know when I cancel the subscription will I still have the 18+ game files? Sorry if this is a dumb question I'm not sure how else to ask and I would like to be sure before purchasing it. Thank you very much for helping I really appreciate it ^^
No problem! You can get both of the 18+ bonus moments on the $10 tier. It's totally fine to join for one month, get the perks you want, and then cancel before you're charged again. If you bookmark the download page for the bonus moments you'll be able to go back to that page and download them again even if you cancel the subscription. But don't bookmark the post on Patreon talking about the content, because that will be locked for you once your subscription ends.
To play the bonus moments you download them and if you're on PC/Mac you have to open the folder like you for for Our Life on Itch. The bonus story are totally separate builds that you play on their own. They aren't added into the main game like a DLC. I hope that helps!
I see, Thank you very much that helps a lot I really appreciate it ^^<3
You're welcome :D
it doesn't let me download i tried everything
Do you have a virus scanner? That could be stopping the install. If you're on PC or Mac you could try downloading it through the Itch app instead of the webpage.
ohh okay ill try that
i tried and it still doesnt work i did check for virus and i dont have any
If you still can't download it I'm afraid you'll have to contact Itch.io support. The file is there, so if there's an issue with getting it on your computer it's either the device or the website that's having a problem. I can't do anything to make it download, unfortunately. I hope you're able to have it worked out!
I accidentally purchased this without knowing I couldn't play on Mac. haha! oh well
Is there a way to somehow transfer a save from the game (without dlcs) back after deleting and uploading the game again (with dlcs) on android? Or maybe separate apk like nsfw moments from patreon? I'd love to play dlcs but don't really want to replay the whole game :(
Hii! I absolutely love the game, and was wondering if there would ever be an after-marriage game? Like, to have a family with him?
I'm glad you like it! Though I'm afraid not. It'd require an amount of alterations so high we cannot create it, aha.
Oh ok! I understand! :D
I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH (I don't think i can get the DLC bc im British so I have pounds)
wow me too i love this game
need an after marriage life with cove pleaseeee
there's one in the gb patch patreon! (but it costs money)
really?? do you get to see what is your life like after marriage?
it's an nsfw dlc, it has a sfw route and a nsfw one 0_o
Tysm!! ^^
whats a gb patch patreon and where can i find it?
It's a subscription site. You can find it here-
https://www.patreon.com/gbpatch
why would u charge vat for location like ur finna mail the game to me
It's for tax purposes because of how the law in certain counties work.
Is bad that I want a wedding with baxter and derek too? or maybe an after marriage moment with kids with cove?
Just beat the entire game in one setting and the Wedding dlc.
Best itch.io game i've ever played.
left me crying and now i'm hopelessly in love with an imaginary man.
Sitting
Haha, I had to play this game quite a few times before I could acquire any kind of tolerance for Baxter (he really does make the first impression of the classic antagonist in stories like this)... but I'm glad to see overall this installment is still just more drama-free, heart-warming slice of life gameplay. Keep up the great work!
For some reason i have the file but it wont work. The only working ones are just the step 1-3 dlcs
Heyyy, tried installing the cove wedding dlc on android, but it gets stuck on the part saying "thank you so much for purchasing the dlc..." and doesn't move from there even if I close the app and reopen it. Any tips?
The DLC file just unlocks the DLC. It isn't the entire game. You've gotta download the free game itself from the main page now in order to play it. Even if you've downloaded it in the past, you have to make sure you download it fresh after installing DLCs!
ok, so install the dlc first, then the game? I'll try that then, thank u!
This is probably the first time I have ever spent real money on a game and I do not regret it. I LOVE THIS SO MUCH
I played through the DLC and I absolutely loved every bit of it! I just wanted to ask though, I saw on the wiki that Shiloh is supposed to appear I but didn't see him. Can someone tell me what options to click on to get him to show up?
Yeah, Shiloh can show up in the wedding! Here's a guide on how that happens-
You’ll need to play the DLC Moment “Serendipity” in Step 3 and get their phone numbers. When having a phone call with Jeremy, ask Shiloh for Jeremy’s number. Jeremy won’t give it himself. During the resolution of the conflict with Shiloh, choose to be on positive or neutral terms with him. Shiloh will give the MC his own number.
During the “And then summer ended…” portion of Step 3, decide to keep in contact with Jeremy/Shiloh by using their numbers to call them.
In Step 4, you’ll still be keeping in touch with them automatically and that will be referenced during the epilogue. Finally, during the Wedding DLC itself, mention how you want Jeremy and/or Shiloh to be invited when discussing the guest list with Cove and Baxter.
Ohh I see! Thank you so much for the help :
Ok so, I've had the dlc for a while now. But recently My laptop seems to just be eating the file. No matter how many times i download it it just disappears. Now im not sure if its my laptops fault or not. Is there any way to fix this issue.
Are you downloading through the Itch.io app or directly from the webpage? Doing the opposite might help. And checking to make sure your virus scanner and/or firewall isn't blocking the file/deleting it for being a strange file they don't recognize might help. Either by temporarily turning them off when downloading or seeing if their settings can be made less strict or made to trust the site/file.
Really good! However Derek doesn't follow the colour code. Not sure if that's just in my game though.
ohmygosh can we get a DLC with Cove and mc have kids and are parents?! thatd be soooo cute
thats what im saying!!!!
I'd pay for it if that's any incentive to some developers reading this ; \
OMGGGG
YESSSSS!!!!!
I'm really sorry, we can't participate in key trading. Purchasing from one storefront will only get you the DLC at that storefront.
I'm afraid not, though I appreciate the offer. Steam doesn't want their keys being given away for a purchase on another site where they see no profit. There can be issues with your relationship with Steam if you do it too much. So, we can't make it a policy to give out keys in return for Itch purchases.
Maybe if you have a friend with a Steam account they could gift the DLC to you and in return you could get them something on Itch? I'm sorry we're not to make Steam easier to use or get around things like that.It's no problem.
I keep trying to just download (without dlc) but nothing is happening did I do something wrong
I LOVED THJIS
This is the first thing I am buying when I get money I SWEAR it
Bought it despite the exchange rate because Our Life is a necessity. Held out playing the wedding pack until a week after my initial playthrough so I could prolong the end. When the white little clouds tumbled by I was hoping for another cutscene but here I am at the menu screen. 🥲 I thought we'd end at the hotel room. aAHHHHH
Wasn't he going to be here tomorrow? Why isn't he here next to me when I wake up? What am I supposed to do with my life now that Our Life has ended...? 🥺
I can't live anymore without Cove. Somebody please knock me out and cause memory loss so I can play this again with a fresh mind.
OKAY I might be getting a job in the coming week so I'm saving to get this. If I land the position I plan on buying the Wedding DLC first followed by the rest in the coming months
(something something exchange rate)EDIT: I GOT THE JOB HECK YEAH SELF INDULGENT SUMMER WEDDING FANTASY HERE I COME
its not freeee😭😭😭😭
NOOOOOO ITS NOT FREEEEE
I love Jeremy soooooooo much <3
UGH, I miss Cove so much. I havent bought this yet and I really want to. Waaaaaaa! I love you cove!!!!
Im on MAC and have the Itch.io app downloaded onto my Mac, I downloaded the DLC from the webpage but I have no way of adding the dlc to my itch file? how am I supposed to open this so I can get the wedding ending?
i have the same issue!
So I figured it out! you have to download the game so its in your finder and download the DLC then go to your finder, copy the DLC download by using two fingers to clip on your mouse pad, then open the Our life application find where it says game, click to open the drop down and paste the DLC you copied to it and it should work the next time you open the game! - sorry if this is confusing.
Hello! ^^
I've just purchased the wedding dlc, but an error pops up while I'm playing . It gives the option to ignore it and keep going with the game, but I don't really know if its a major issue or not. (I'll attach an image, so you can see what I'm talking about)
Can you please help me to solve it? I've discovered this game recently and fell in love. You did a wonderful work and I'd like to thank you for making the game available for everyone for free. As it's a very long and complete game, it's really surprising. I also love how it considers every little detail, being also very inclusive.
Once again, thank you so much for sharing this beautiful and wholesome masterpiece with the world.
The build you're using for the main game is out of date. If you download the latest version of OL and add the DLCs to that, the error should go away! I'm glad you enjoyed it so far ^^
I didn't expect to get a reply so soon, tsym! <3
I've tried downloading the new version but the same error pops up. What should I do?
The save you loaded might be too connected to the error to work even with the new version. If you have a save that's further back in the story you could try that. Or you might unfortunately have to start a new file because the save was broken. You can also try updating the Wedding DLC file itself, if you don't have the most recent version of that. Though, I'm not sure that'd be it. It's likely the save file.
Luckily I had another save where I've just finished step 4, just before starting the dlc. And it seems it's running without any problems.
Thank you so much for your help! ^^
I'm really glad you had another save to use! That's great. And no problem.
i can't seem to get my dlc to work for my mac
umm is there a way to get the android dlcs if I bought them through steam?
I'm sorry, Steam doesn't support Android and it doesn't work with Itch to give keys in return for a Steam purchase. You have to buy the game here to get the Android files.
Hello, I bought the DLC on android and I've been trying to download it into the game but without success. I've made sure to follow the instructions and moved the rpa file to the game folder, I also downloaded the lattest version of the game, but the DLC still won't install. What should I do?
I can't say for sure what might be wrong unless you can give a screenshot of your folder, but in the meantime you can try to follow the guide omniastarr wrote:
These steps worked for me and at least one other user on here (I have a samsung s10. Also, I know there are a lot of steps, but it took me less than 5 minutes):
1. Download the base game from itch.io (this is an .apk file)
2. Download the DLC(s) you purchased (these are .rpa files)
3. Download and install Amaze File Manager from the Play Store
4. Install the base game by clicking on the .apk file and following the prompts to install
5. Open the Amaze app and follow the prompts to allow access to your files, as well as grant "All files access" (clicking Grant will take you to the Settings location, but you'll have to find Amaze in the list, click on its name, and toggle "Allow access to all files" on)
6. Once that setting is toggled on, go back to Amaze and find your Downloads folder there. Inside should be all your .rpa files.
7. Long press on the first .rpa file you want to install and then click on the rest. All of them should be highlighted before the next step.
8. Once highlighted, click on the copy button (an icon of two rectangles in front of each other) at the top of the app
9. Navigate to your Android folder within the Amaze app, then the data folder inside of it. You might have to allow another access prompt here.
10. Scroll down to the "ourlife.demo.apk" file and click on it, then the "files" file inside.
11. At the top of the app, there should be a new folder button (picture of a folder with a +). Click that and make a new folder called "game".
12. Click on the "game" folder, and then click the "Use This Folder" button at the bottom of the app. You will again need to grant access through a prompt.
13. Finally, click the "Paste" button at the bottom of the app, and you should be all set! Open the Our Life app, and enjoy getting married to the best crybaby!!!
I LOVE this but i honestly dont think a wedding path should be blocked behind a paywall, you build up to it originally, its like you get all the way to the end with these emptions in you, only to realize you can’t afford to pay to get married. Otherwise, I love your work, developer. ❤
The main game is already free and offers hours of entertainment, which people have worked hard for. This wouldn’t be possible if they didn’t get any income or pay, which is why it’s only fair and very deserving that the extra content is behind a paywall.
Maybe you meant well, but expecting everything to be free is disrespectful for all the work they put into this game. We were able to get all this extra content exactly because the game was successfully funded and profitable. It’s understandable that not everyone has money to spend on games, but it’s also important to remember that behind this game there’s real people. People who do this as a living and have to get payed, so they can continue working and creating content like this.
