CH 8 v0.8.1

• Fixes two texture seams in day two night scene
• Fixes continue-with-choices warning message about being locked out of BOTH Coven and Brooke even when you’re only locked out of one of them.
• Removes default starting at full screen to prevent issues with some ultra-wide/high res monitor (PC/Mac/Linux).

Quick note on carrying the choices from the previous chapter over to season 2. You need to have finished season 1 using version 1.0.0 or better if you’re on PC, Linux, or Mac, or version 1.0.1 or better if you’re on Android. In the new game, select to start season 2, then follow on-screen instructions to continue playing using your previous choices.

CH 8 v0.8.0

• First release for season 2, includes chapter 8.
• New achievements
• Import your choices from season 1 (chapters 1-7) or start from default choices. It is recommended you play season 1 before playing season 2.

Quick note on carrying the choices from the previous chapter over to season 2. You need to have finished season 1 using version 1.0.0 or better if you’re on PC, Linux, or Mac, or version 1.0.1 or better if you’re on android. In the new game, select to start season 2, then follow on-screen instructions to continue playing using your previous choices.

Ch 7 v0.7.1

• Reduce image cache size on desktops from 700 MB to 500 MB to help with crash reports for some users.
• Reduce image cache size on Android to 300 MB (ren’py default) to help with Android players who are able to run the game but are having stability issues.
• The above will probably not fix the issue some have reported about not getting past the load screen, that is still under investigation.
• Removed 32 bit support for desktop users. Sorry if you’re using that, I’m just getting too many reports about crashes and instability for that version. If you really want to use it, grab 0.7.0, and just drop the data folder from 0.7.1 into that, that should work, but if you’re experiencing stability issues, note I can’t support you with that.
• Typos fixed and minor dialog changes.

Ch 7 v0.7.0

• Adds chapter 7.
• Added about 10k images, bringing the grand total up to 23k2, for what that’s worth.
• Reworked the gallery system. Now based on save files instead of stripped, dialogless copies of the original scene. Original versions left intact for backwards compatibility.
• Typos, continuity fixes, small bugs, and other minor changes to dialog to previous chapters.
• Now runs on ren’py 7.6.1.
• Because of this, after a load, you can’t roll back to a point before the moment you saved, because of glitching images when you do.
• Ren’py 7.6.0 introduced a warning when loading a save that comes from a different computer, and asks you to confirm loading. You won’t see this with saves made in the last version of LomL, but you will see this with saves made in this version.
• If you are not sure why saves made on another computer are a substantial security risk

Known issues: Some phones seem to have trouble starting up the Android version. It doesn’t seem to be related to model, make, architecture, age, or resources available on the phone, so it’s likely settings or other apps, but I haven’t been able to pinpoint the issue yet, and it’s still under investigation.

Ch 6 v0.6.4

• NO NEW STORY CONTENT! If you played chapter 6 already, there’s no need to download it this version.
• Adds check for outdated mods, to prevent another WT mod debacle.
• Another metric ton of typo’s and one or two very minor bug fixes.
• Fixes some graphics glitches.
• Updates a bunch of grainy renders from the first two chapters.

Ch 6 v0.6.3

• Fix undefined variable error in end-game summary with certain combinations of office girls paths.

Ch 6 v0.6.2

• Chapter 6 added.
• WTF why v0.6.2? Well chapter 5 was version 0.6.1 and that was kinda confusing. So now the version and chapter are in step again.
• Added an option to suppress displaying actual numbers when you are informed a character’s love or negative emotion has changed for better immersion (find it under Preferences->Relations).
• Small fixes to previous chapters.
• Higher compression rate for images on the Android version to keep within APK limits.
• Special note for android users: Please note that due to the growing number of images in the game (over 11k) and the hard limit of 2GB for APK images, images in the Android version of Light of my Life had to be compressed more. That comes with some degradation of image quality, but I tried to find a quality setting that best matches individual screens to take the worst edge off.

Ch 5 v0.6.1

• No new story content!
• Some typo’s and dialogue problems fixed.
• Dialog box transparency slider added (courtesy of RJ Rhodes). Find it under preferences.
• Weird graphical issues surrounding blinking eyes caused by lossy webp compression fixed (by using lossless compression on quite a few images; players using unofficial compressed builds will be even more affected by this graphical glitch).
• Scrabble value of ‘sarcasm’ now shows the correct point value (d’oh!).

Ch 5 v0.6.0

• Adds chapter 5 (phew)
• A whole bunch of typos fixed, and some text changes for style and consistency.
• For Beta players: fixed some consistency errors in Macy/Denise locked out paths.
• For Beta players: Updated gallery for chapter 5.

Ch 4 v0.5.2

• A message from Macy and Denise. Find this short scene right after the end of chapter 4.
• Hotkeys for choice menus. If you’re on PC, Linux or Mac, you can use the number keys to select a menu option instead of having to use the mouse. Now you can have that other hand free to hold a nice, refreshing beverage! The option can be disabled from preferences if you hate seeing little numbers in front of your menu options.
• See your current relationship levels for characters you’ve met with a relationship stat. Available from the preference screen, under relationships.
• A final batch of small fixes for typos and minor graphical glitches.

Ch 4 v0.5.0

• Includes Chapter 4.
• Another slew of spelling and grammar fixes.
• S-3 will hence forth be known as the coven.
• Uses Ren’py build 7.3.5, which seems to solve some of the pup-up keyboard errors for android users.
• Now distributing the new Android universal build instead of the armeabi build.

For beta participants only (coming from v.0.5.BETA<x>)

• Updated gallery for chapter 4.
• Added one big scrolly image for a certain prominent backside (show in-game and gallery).
• Added an image to the main menu background rotation for completing a chapter 4 event.
• Not all gallery triggers will have been set correctly in your playthrough. Run through chapter 4 again to unlock them.
• Android users might need to uninstall the beta before they can install the official release (and lose their saves in the process). Sorry about that.

Ch. 3 v0.4.2
No new story content! If you played chapter 3, there’s little reason to download this (unless you want to play it again).

• Considerable size reduction after compressing a large amount of images.
• Whole lot of spelling and grammar errors fixed. Thanks to everyone who submitted them to me!
• Fixed a choice flag not setting correctly causing some wrong dialogue between M+D.
• M+D Gallery is now multi-page because the menu didn’t really fit on a single screen anymore.

Ch. 3 v0.4.1 (Android ONLY)

• Version to fix crash issue on android.
• Note, this required a rather invasive change to the setup of a bunch of images, please report any graphic glitches you may experience (weird transparencies, missing backgrounds, tears or other strange problems with blink or fumble animations and such).

Ch. 3 v0.4.0

• Chapter 3 added.
• Many renders updated and cleaned up.
• Updated gallery.
• Can now set nicknames and some additional character names in the change names option in preferences (unlocks as appropriate).
• Lockout option under preferences lets you set how you want to handle the possibility of a Macy/Denise path lockout.
• OK button added to text input on Android version to work around keyboard wonkyness.
• Note: crashes reported with android version currently under investigation.

Ch. 2 v0.3.3
No new story content! If you played chapter 2, there’s little reason to download this (unless you want to play it again).

• One (1) new render. It’s a bonus image earlier posted in discord, available under the gallery, and it’s called “naked pizza night”. It has a tiny bit of animation added.
• Simple gallery added. If you started your play-through with v0.2.0 through v0.3.2, it’ll unlock all entries in the gallery when you finish (or already have finished) chapter 2. For a play-through started with any version, it’ll also unlock entries as you view the relevant scene.
• Fixed issues with missing image errors, reported by some players when the game is placed into a deep folder structure.
• Fixed wayward lip piercing in some images.
• Minor tweak to the alternative splash screen that displays on the main menu sometimes after finishing chapter 2, to use a wider range of expressions.

Ch. 2 v0.3.2
No new story content! If you played chapter 2, there’s no reason to download this (unless you want to play it again).

• Several spelling and grammar fixes.
• Reduce transparency of text-box and menu items to obscure the images less.
• Add a hide button for tablet and phone (android).
• Several minor tweaks to the end game summary.
• Prevent skipping of floating text through mouse-click to prevent users accidentally skipping the next one too if there’s several in a row.
• Add second state to alternative splash screen that displays on the main menu sometimes if you did the pinky swear.

Ch. 2 v0.3.0

• Added chapter 2.
• Several renders touched up and spelling/grammar corrections to chapter 1.
• Very minor rework of chapter 1 dialogues for clarity or to add some minor choices.
• Fix Brooke lovepoints being awarded to Macies pool in chapter 1 (v0.2.x), and corrected both pools to compensate.
• Alternative main menu screens for self-avowed supporters and after completing chapter 2.
• Tutorial messages to alert the user they can change relationships and names from the preferences menu.

Ch. 1 v0.2.1
No new story content!

• Brushed up some renders where the youngest ward was clipping through her t-shirt.
• Reduced size of some textures in the dream sequence from 4k to HD to hopefully prevent reported crash.
• Added option to set the relationship and modes of address labels, as well as names, through the preference menu. You can still use a lewd patch if you are so inclined, but you don’t need to anymore (especially useful to Android users I think).

Ch. 1 v0.2
First release
