To the Moon News

After getting away with it for way too long, the release date is finally set to September 20, 2024!

Languages:
We'll try to bring on all the languages the previous titles had, although as with the previous titles, it would be in the months following initial release.

We will likely do an initial release with English, plus one or two other languages such as the Chinese localization, which will also help ironing out the localization kinks. This will be followed by the other languages around or hopefully before the end of the year. (If you're someone who worked on a previous localization and are interested in this one, feel free to contact me or Andrii. d-(' ' d-))

Playtime:
A normal playtime is approximately 2.5 - 3 hours.

Operating System:
It will be available for all of PC, Mac, & Linux on launch.

And lastly, Serenity Forge has created a memory snow globe of a scene from the beachsode available when the game launches. d-(' ' d-) (I think they'll have a preorder for it open next week too).



The beach episode will serve as one or two endings of sorts(?) to the series (with the other being The Last Hour of an Epic To the Moon RPG coming next year).

Unlike the other titles, playing the other two games in the series is particularly recommended, as it's an all ensemble game with reference to each of the three games.

And that's it for now, thanks everyone! Now back to cave mode wrapping it up. Almost there... Hnnnnnnng!!

Been working hard on it for the past few months after the the Bestest Memories campaign, and it's now very very close! Final release date will be announced later this month, and should basically be within a quarter.

Neil has been getting his fan-service beach bod ready for it. . .

Almost there now, HNNNNNNNNG!!

For the backers and those following the campaign, here's the box opening video of the latest manufacturing samples of the To the Moon tabletop collectible, comic book prints, and bonus loot. c:

There's been some minor issues that have since been caught and fixed, but the overall production quality of the samples feel solid. We're on schedule for wrapping up production to be ready for freight around mid-January, but have gotten word that freight time could be prolonged due to the current geopolitics affecting certain routes. When we get a more accurate estimate, we'll make a post to update.

But either way, with the freight starting mid next month, here's the last chance for those interested in preorder to make it for this batch:

Cheers, & hope everyone have a nice holiday season & break~!

P.S. We'll also be creating a demo for the beach episode messages soon. d-(' ' d-)

Ever lie awake at night wondering what River would look like as an epic fantasy JRPG boss?

Well, wonder no more. . .


While Kan works on finishing the rest of To the Moon beach episode, the rest of the team is preoccupying a vacant period of time with a side mini-project... The Last Hour of an Epic To the Moon RPG!

And it is just that: You start the game by loading a 99-hour save file into an epic To the Moon themed RPG (because who has the time to play the whole thing nowadays?), already at the final dungeon of the game that's shaped like a lighthouse, and play it to its story's conclusion.

Featuring characters from all of To the Moon and its sequels, Finding Paradise and Impostor Factory... but only more EPIC!!!



MORE EPIC!!

MOOORE EPIIIIC!!!



Are we serious? Did we jump the shark?? Is this fluff really all the game is?!?
Probably ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

. . . But perhaps it's best to wait 'til it's out next year to be sure.

The month-long campaign is almost over, and as we unveil the final stretch goal, we're preparing to wrap up the To the Moon tabletop game & goodies Kickstarter campaign.



As always, thank you to all the supporters and the Freebird community for making this campaign possible. There is still a lot of work to do, but we're committed to making everyone who pledged happy with the rewards!

And speaking of which, here're some showing of the goodies found in the campaign, presented at the recent local To the Moon art exhibit (photos from the exhibit coming later this week)!












Cheers everyone, looking forward to organizing & sharing photos from the main exhibit in the coming days! Thank you to all those who made it to the exhibit, and thank you to all those who supported the Kickstarter.

There're just 48 hours left to the campaign, and if you'd like to support it or help spread the word, you can find it here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/freebirdgames/to-the-moon-bestest-memories/


Here's to a great wrap-up! d-(' ' d-)
