Hi folks! I've been getting a lot of questions and DMs about the localizations for the To the Moon Beach Episode, so thought I'd make a post to explain the situation! Most of the translations texts are actually done (thank you to the translation teams!), but we were originally waiting on the files involving images and some other integration components. But due to some worldly circumstances outside of their control and not their fault, we weren't able to reach the localization manager who were working on them. At some points, we did get in contact briefly and it was hopeful, so we waited some more, but they've since gone dark once more. So at this point, what we are going to do is to just remake the picture files ourselves, regardless of what progress was already made, so at least we have control over the situation. Korean version is already almost done as an initial test case, and we will move onto the other languages right afterward. If you're from one of the language groups not included yet and might be interested in testing a build at some point in the near future, please feel free to drop a message at the language's channel on Freebird's Discord http://discord.gg/rA4rXzC ("language specific" channels, near the end of the chatroom lists). Sorry for the delay on this! We were really hoping to get them out sooner as well. But now that we're doing them ourselves, at least there's tangible progress. d-(' ' d-) I'm hoping for most of the languages in progress to be out in the coming month or two.

Thanks to Kyo, the Polish localization for To the Moon Beach Episode is now released! More localizations to come soon, with Korean and Italian teams already finished with their translations and are in editing phase, and others making good progress as well. Additionally, thank you everyone for playing. It's been a month since the game's out, and I'm grateful for the reception so far, although I do understand that the episode may be frustrating to some as well. Just wanted to share some thoughts from my perspective on it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS09QgKiOqQ Cheers & thanks for the support as always~ Hoping to see everyone back at the Last Hour of an Epic To the Moon RPG that should release quite a bit sooner than how long it took to release this one. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2664600/The_Last_Hour_of_an_Epic_TO_THE_MOON_RPG/

The beach episode is now live! Thank you for the patience everyone, and hope you enjoy it~ If you experience any issues with it, please let me know (here or on the forums). c: We'll try our best to iron things out in the next few days if so. In the meantime, here're some FAQ! Q: Will it be available in more languages? A: Yes, we're hoping to begin adding more languages by the end of the year. With the one localization so far, we've ironed out most of the issues, and are about ready to begin with the other languages. If anyone who's been involved with localization the previous games are interested, please feel free to reach out as well. Q: How long is the game? A: Varies, but I'd say around 2.5-3 hours. (And please note: Don't exit the game during the credits~) Q: Is this the end of the series? A: In a manner of speaking, it's half of an ending. While there is a concluding factor to it, it technically still is a beach episode -- So if you feel like there were certain core things that you wish you could've seen more of but didn't here, fear not... for there is still: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2664600/The_Last_Hour_of_an_Epic_TO_THE_MOON_RPG/ Q: Do we need to play the previous games of the series before this? A: It's best to for sure. While there're some general antics, it is something of a reunion for characters throughout the series, so having that background would make a big difference. Here's a "Complete the Set" bundle that should cover that, and we'll put it on a big discount here: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/1830/To_the_Moon_Series_Anniversary_Bundle/ Q: If I left a message on the beach from the Bestest Memories campaign, how will I access it? A: The beach of memories is to the right side of the main beach, you should be able to find it easily when the time comes. However, be sure to enter your Order ID (see the Update from Kickstarter for more info) into the starfinder.txt document in the main game folder (right click the game from Steam library -> Manage -> Browse local files). Q: Will the soundtrack be available? A: Yes, and it will include some bonus content like a mini Beachsode comic set from Del! It will be available later this weekend here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3224510/ Q: Will there be future updates to this game? A: Yes, we are hoping to add some more features in the future (e.g. a beach message browser as we had for the demo, more streamlined mini-game access, etc.) If you have any suggestions, please feel free to post them! Thanks to Ancurio for the help with the MKXP engine to make this possible, and Ali for helping preparing it for the Mac build! And thank you to the whole Freebird Games team for everyone's hard work to make this project come to life. Last but not least... Thank you everyone in the Freebird community for your support!

Heyo folks, the release time was announced to be 10am Pacific, but I just realized that the system setting has it at Eastern, which is 3 hours earlier. D: So sorry, expect a 3 hour delay. . .
So if you're waiting and are from a time zone where it's alright night, might be good to just wait 'til the next day. . . Sorry! But in the meantime, here's a picture of Asher's face (and Colin & Sofia) that had to be altered when making it into the trailer for being too distracting:

The beach episode trailer finally live on Steam & YT. But today, we also launched the To the Moon: Bestest Memories Kickstarter, featuring To the Moon tabletop game and various other mementos. Included, is that all supporters for the campaign, high or low, will be able to embed a message of their own to be buried in the sand of the beach episode, which other players can dig up and read when the beach episode releases.
Those interested can find the campaign here, which runs for 30 days starting today: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/freebirdgames/to-the-moon-bestest-memories/ Or, check out the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvnU_P2k3lo And if you haven't seen it yet, please check out the Beach Episode trailer now updated at the Steam page. c: We hope to release the game around the end of the year. Cheers everyone, and thank you for your support!
