A note!

Hi everyone,

Just a quick note to share some info. As you might have noticed, we've had to take an unexpected hiatus from High Life - pretty much drop the project altogether temporarily. Without getting into too much personal detail, Meghan needed to leave the project quite suddenly, and that threw it all up in the air for us, effectively overnight. We didn't want to have to, but Chris and I decided it was best we put the whole thing on hold and let it rest for a while, while we help ou...

Evie, Pt.II: By the River

Hi everyone,

Again, we'll be sharing a detailed news post later today, just to inform you of everything that's going on. 

For now, here's the second part of Evie's new look. Eleanor and Evie have gone for a walk on their first day together after finishing school. Bringing their swimming costumes, they decide to stop to paddle in the river, and spend an hour enjoying the English summer sun.

Evie, Pt.II: By the River (animation)

Making this post available to all Patrons. More news is coming later today.

Here's part two of Evie (formerly Katie) and her new look. This post is to share with you our first animation. It's only a brief glimpse, as we continue to play around with the style, but we hope you enjoy it. Is there anything you particularly like/dislike? Let us know. As always, your feedback is hugely appreciated. Download the animation in 1080p 60fps below.

Announcement: Original Music!

Hi everyone!

Following on from the little teaser on Thursday, we're excited to reveal that High Life now features original music! This is something we've been really keen to do since the beginning, and thanks to your support it's now possible. We've been working with artist Mosspark to create an original soundtrack for the game, and you'll soon be able to check out and purchase the soundtrack for Episode 1 on Bandcamp. We think you'll love it! 

Now for the details! The 20-tra...

What's that sound I can hear?

Hi everyone!

Just a small post to tease some big news...

Get ready for more this Saturday! Set your alarm nice and early:

Happy new year everyone,

Erosion

Happy Holidays!

Hi everyone,

Just a quick message to wish you all a safe and happy holidays, wherever you are this Christmas, from Eleanor, Anna, and all of us here.

Development Update #9: 3rd December 2018

Hi everyone,

Let's begin with the obvious! As you can see above, we've updated the High Life cover art. We love it and we think you will too, which is why we've included three full-size posters that you can use for whatever you'd like. They make great desktop wallpapers! Let us know what you think in the comments.

What's coming in Episode 2? 

Now time for some news. We've had a lot of questions! What's coming in Episode 2? What can we expect i...

100 Patrons! A thank-you.

So, we've reached 100 Patrons. It's difficult to really say what that means without descending into overly sentimental rubbish, so basically, thank you.

We had no idea if we'd reach this point. It was admittedly scary when we made the decision to start investing so much of our time into High Life, and not knowing whether any of what you do will matter to anyone is daunting. We still have a long way to go, but this is a huge milestone for us, and we're extremely grateful to you for helping us g...

Development Update #8: 8th October 2018

Hi everyone, thank you for your support. Time for an update!

As you may already know, tomorrow, Tuesday 9th, High Life Episode 1 will be made available to download for $10+ Patrons. It won't contain the bonus scenes of the Elite version, but that bonus content has been designed to not take anything away from the main game. So don't worry about missing out on key story points - you'll still play High Life as it was intended, not a stifled version.

The preview will stay the same and will r...

High Life Episode 1 Available Now!

It's here - High Life Episode 1 is now available to download for Elite Patrons! Get the Elite Edition here.

High Life Episode 1 Tomorrow

"Shit, tomorrow we wake up technically unemployed..." 

Hi! If you're a Patron and were expecting a development update today, there isn't one! Just some very tiny news that we're not even sure is worth mentioning:

High Life Episode 1 launches tomorrow for Elite Patrons!

We'll be sharing details about what to expect, what the bonus content for the Elite version of the game includes, and when other Patrons can play in tomorrow's launch post.

We'll al...

Development Update #7 - September 24th, 2018

Hi everyone,

Tomorrow we will be sending out messages to Elite tier Patrons about their role in the game credits, so if you're still on the fence about joining, you've got just a few hours left to sign up!

Another small update today, just to say that we're going to take a little extra time to finalise the game and tweak it - namely to remove a few lines that don't work and add a couple of extra scenes that we think do. We're still working hard and long hours to get as much great con...

One week left to be credited in Episode 1!

You there! Stop! 

If you've ever wanted to go the extra mile and become part of a project in its early stages, now's your chance! There's just one week left to become an Elite Patron and add your name (or whatever else you want to say) to the credits of High Life Episode 1. 

Of course you'll also get other great benefits too: you'll play the game 4 days early and see exclusive content not included in other versions.

Development Update #6 - September 17th, 2018

Hi everyone,

A very brief update this week, just to say that all the team are back now and are working hard. Though we got as much done as we could before Rob's week-long birthday break, the five days we had without rendering were costly and have meant we need to push back the release of Episode 1. However, we anticipated this, and since rendering has started up again we've been able to produce around 8 images a day working overtime, bringing the total number of renders in Episode 1 at this st...

Development Update #5 - September 10th, 2018

So as we mentioned in our last update, Rob, who creates the renders for the game, has now started his one-week birthday break. We’ve paused rendering for that time and are focusing on finalising the script and beginning work on Episode 2.

In today’s post we’ll talk more about the story in Episode 1 as well as a couple of big things we’ve decided to add that we think you’ll love.

Firstly, we’re working on an Android version of the game, which will hopefully be...

Development Update #4 - September 3rd, 2018

Hi guys!

In this post we’re going to share some important details as we begin to reach release time. We’re of course going to start with the most important news: release date! 

Episode 1 will be released in approximately two weeks! 

This is just an approximation for now, as we’re having to factor 5 days into that time where Rob, who does the rendering, will be A.F.K (away from keyboard) for his birthday holiday from next Monday. That will mean we ha...

August 2018 Elite 4K Render! - "Help me get changed?"

Development Update #3 - August 27th, 2018

Hey everyone,

Following on from our last dev update, based on your feedback and how the game will play out, we’ve chosen to remove the option to change your character name. Once we got to the point where Eleanor's name needed to appear in scenes, we realised it can’t be done any other way!

What this means is, we can build on the immersion of the story by not only having nicknames for Eleanor, but also feature her name in a scene, for example when having her shirt signed. (This is als...

Hey guys! Just an update to share this exclusive banner, for you to use on your favourite forum or website and show your support for the game. With a couple of images you haven't seen before thrown in for good measure...

Development Update #2 - August 20th, 2018

Hi there guys!

Time for our second development update!

Rendering is going great. We’re working on the game 7 days a week, no days off, steadily producing between 3 and 5 images a day. Some days we can produce more, depending on the scene, and we hope to create more at a faster rate once Episode 1 is released and we gain more support. So spread the word!

We’re right in the middle of the unexciting, technical period of the development process right now, at the point when all the ...

Development Update 1 - Public Q&A

So the preview for High Life has been out just over two weeks now, and in that time we've received an incredible amount of positive feedback, messages and comments. It's been really fun to share the game with you all in this early stage, the support from everyone has been overwhelming! 

The full first episode is well underway, and has a lot in store for you that we think you'll love.  

In the meantime, in this post we'd like to answer a few of your various questions...

Post-preview Update - What's next

Firstly, we’d like to give a big thank you to all of you!

The support, comments and positive feedback for High Life we’ve received in the past week have been incredible. We’re immensely excited about the future of the game and it makes us very happy to see that people are playing and loving the story that we’ve created.  

So what's coming next?

We’re hard at work on completing Episode 1, and we’ve been able to adapt it to inco...

Preview - Meet Eleanor

Welcome, and thanks so much for your support! This is the first character preview for High Life. 

The youngest of three, Eleanor is a sensible and studious girl, with little experience of the wild world of adolescence. Her natural beauty and naive emotional depth win her the quiet favour of many around her, but so far in life she has been too absorbed in her own world to notice.

What's she reading? It's her favourite book - Flappers and Philosophers by F. Scott Fitzgerald...

High Life Episode 1 Preview available now!

The short preview for the first Episode of High Life is now available to download for Windows and Mac.
