[DOWNLOAD] Family Reactions Mod for when MC proposes to Cove in step 3!!

(Just some highlights, there's much more than just this obviously!)

After about two weeks of working on this silly little project, I've officially finished my first OLBA mod!!

With this mod, if you own the Step 3 DLC, if you propose to cove at the end of step 3, the ending sequence will be extended to include the MC's and Cove's families' reactions.

Originally, I intended this to also incorporate the MC and Cove's friends as a part of the engagement announcement, But I ended up feeling happy ending it off by just seeing the family's reactions. I might update this to include the option to call friends to tell them in the future, but for now the mod is finished!! DOWNLOAD LINK (Google Drive/Zipped file)

Unsure how to put the mod into your game? Here's a tutorial!

Is this blog dead?

Trust me, the increasing backlog of asks haunts me every time I look at my inbox.

I will try to clear it out at least a little bit! <3

Working on some more outfits for characters in Step 5 :) Sorry Cove, you're not allowed to go out in the dead of winter in short sleeves and shorts.

Hi hi so I’m curious to know, it’s no secret I’ve been teasing this a little, but how would the OLBA community feel about a mod that added a ‘step 5’ of sorts tailored toward the MC and Cove as Spouses/Fiances/Partners after a 2 year timeskip 🥺 from step 4.

This mod would specifically be made for those who want to be able to experience being able to adopt/have a kid with our silly husband/boyfriend (and also might have a route for those who don’t want kids. Adopting a puppy together anyone ?? 👀)

Obviously it’s still in the uh… “marinating in my notes” + “struggling with ren’py” stages right now, but would that be something people might be interested in?? If so I’d love to hear ideas/questions/concerns/wishes for what that could be like :3

Bonus: some art of my olba mc (Joy) + her husband

Working on a small Mod for step 3 after the player proposes to cove!! :D

(Photos not completely in order, i.e I just picked some highlights) After my millionth playthrough of OL, I got to that point where the MC can propose to cove in step 3, its one of my favorite things to do for my direct playthroughs, but I was always kind of disappointed we never get to see our respective families’ and friends’ reactions. So I finally just took it upon myself to start making a mod for just that!!

This mod is still a work in progress, keep in mind I’m in my senior year of high school so I don’t exactly have a whole lot of time to work on projects like this but I’ll try my best to finish it!! I've gotten about a quarter done for it so far :3 I hope to make it available for people with the respective step 3 DLC to download (since you need step 3 to be able to propose I believe...?)

I’m not that great a writer but I promise I’m trying my best to replicate GB-Patch’s writing style 🥲 Note: a lot of the writing will be paraphrased from the family/friends’ reactions to your proposal from step 4 but I am taking time to rewrite it obviously.

Any criticisms, suggestions, or requests for future mods are very much appreciated!!

Worked on the mod a bit today. Over 700 lines of code added and we're only just now getting to the good stuff... 😅 I'm excited to start on everyone's real reactions to their engagement, hopefully we won't be going too out of character (I make no promises LOL)

So... I've really been struggling with making backgrounds for my mod lately, and I kind of realized drawing completely from hand for every single one would NOT be possible. At the same time, I am also strongly against using any kind of generative AI, even if it wouldn't be something commercial. So instead I tried out using the Sims 4, with some shaders, as a kind of base(?) for a background, and tweaking it, drawing onto it etc... I'm not sure I'm 100% happy with the end result, but with only 4 hours of work its a whole lot easier than drawing completely from hand, especially for a personal project. (after and before below)

I'm definitely going to play around with it more to get it the way I want and likely will end up using just 'general shapes' rather than drawing completely on top of the old picture, but what do we think, success or...?
