MEET OUR CHARACTERS - Hutt
Hello friends!
It's nice to see you again in another update where we introduce the colorful menagerie of various personalities that Louise and Mitch had met on their life-changing voyage through the USA in the 1960s.
There were many intriguing characters Louise met in her life, but there were also many undeniably unwelcomed, who one could consider a necessary evil.
One of them is Mr. Hutt, loathsome crud of a person, you'll meet basically at the very beginning of your journey, in Chapter I.
Obnoxious and grabby, he is the local diner’s owner and a nightmare of a boss to work with for Louise. Stingy with cash, he respects no one, all the less his employees, and is always on the lookout for the next longest pair of legs. Hutt has a private stash of dirty mags all the waitresses know about.
They say there's no shame in hard work but dignity must be preserved. And as you've seen, Louise knew it very well.
Best Month Ever is now available on all platforms! Now's the perfect time to show the game to your friends, because it's on a special discount, -25%!

Many of you have lived the story of Louise and Mitch, and maybe already found out the truth about their history - or you are still waiting for the final cut of this unforgettable scenario?
Either way, today we want to introduce to you another personage out of the colorful menagerie of characters you are meeting throughout the game. This time it's someone truly essential, crucial yet absent kind, who makes the story absolutely complete.
Let's meet none other than Frank himself.
An aspiring jazz musician who plays at Kiki’s club during Louise’s dancing routines and feels his life is about to begin given the big break he gets with a recording deal. Older than Louise, he loves her and wants to spend life exploring the world with her. Frank is not ready to commit here and there but doesn’t get a chance to mature.
Years later, he is settled down with Melanie in his home village, living not far away from his father’s farm. He plays with a band in a local bar. Frank is confused at finding out Mitch is his son and seeks closure from Louise on what exactly happened. He forgives her for having stayed away and not telling the truth.
Once Louise passes away, he steps into the role of a father and helps him achieve the future Louise influenced him towards.
Remember that there are 9 endings of Best Month Ever! each showing a different future for Mitch. Now's the perfect time to show the game to your friends, because it's still on launch discount, -15%!
❤️ This bittersweet roller coaster through the tragic and magical moments of motherhood is finally getting on the road! ❤️
A bittersweet narrative point and click adventure game where you only have one month to live and must raise your son before you die. The choices you make matter as you swap between playing a mother called Louise in the 1960s and her son Mitch in the 1970s where you get to see how your choices changed his life.
With the new trailer focusing on what parenthood means, the game underlines all the sacrifices needed to be made in order to keep going in the face of adversity in a timely celebration in the run up to Mother’s Day.
🎵 It'll Be The Best Month Ever! 🎵
Along with the premiere, you are also receiving a stunning, nearly 80-minute original soundtrack, composed of 29 beautiful and expressive, folk, country and jazz-inspired melodies prepared by Jędrzej Bączyk (Pan Jędras).
So what does motherhood mean to you? You can find out RIGHT NOW!
MEET OUR CHARACTERS - Margaret
Friends!
Hello again and welcome to our weekly "Meet Our Characters" update, where we present a colorful menagerie of personalities you'll encounter throughout the game.
From people who Louise used to consider friends to sworn enemies and finally, tentative new relationships - we hope you are eager to learn more with every new post!
Some say the mother is one who values our existence more than our accomplishments. Some, however, may have it twisted on their way. Let's meet Margaret, then.
Louise and Kathy’s controlling and emotionally distant mother. She cares about the family’s reputation and social standing above anything else, least of all her daughters’ well-being. Her husband left the family years ago, apparently walking out on them with no warning. Deeply devoted to the Church, Margaret treats Father Judd as a close family friend who can do no wrong.
She is bitter at what her life has become like and seeing Louise for the first time in years fills her with Schadenfreude.
What will come out of this reunion? Find out in the full game on May 5th - the premiere day of Best Month Ever!
