To the Moon Series - End of 2024 Update

Hey folks, as the year draws to a close, here's a To the Moon-related report on this year and the upcoming one! But first, here's Johnny and River as fantasy characters from the upcoming Last Hour of an Epic To the Moon RPG hnnnnnng
(Cheers to George / @_zhaop for the awesome art!) Now that's out of the way, this year, we: In 2024:

  • Released the To the Moon: Bestest Memories tabletop game!
    Thanks to the supportive community, we've managed to finish production and ship out the game. If you missed the campaign, the main games are available at Freebird's BigCartel: https://freebirdgames.bigcartel.com/ There are still kinks we're working out with the logistics for some edge cases, and it was a great challenging and learning experience to work with physical goods at a larger scale. But overall, it's been a great campaign, and we're glad folks are enjoying the game and the collectables.
  • Launched the To the Moon Beach Episode on Steam:
    https://store.steampowered.com/app/2159210/ Despite being an unorthodox game of the series, it marked a pivotal point as a part of its conclusion. Thanks to the community for joining us on this journey, and we hope you enjoyed the player messages left on the beach. P.S. Localizations are still happening, sorry about the hiccups and delay on that! We're expecting to release 4 more localizations in the coming month~
  • Major milestone with the To the Moon animated film project: [redacted]
  • Collaboration with Serenity Forge We've joined force with Doki Doki Literature Club+ & Slay the Princess publisher, Serenity Forge, to bring To the Moon and its holiday specials to Playstation, Xbox, and beyond!
In 2025:
  • Last Hour of an Epic To the Moon RPG
    This might happen late in the year, but a lot of work has already gone into production. We're hoping for it to act both as an interesting experience in and of itself, and a wrap-up (and wrap-around?) to the To the Moon series, filling in some things that I felt were still missing in the To the Moon Beach Episode to make the series whole. If interested, feel free to +wishlist it here to be notified when it releases: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2664600/The_Last_Hour_of_an_Epic_TO_THE_MOON_RPG/
  • Further collaboration with Serenity Forge Be it physical goodies (like the upcoming To the Moon beach episode snow globe) or other things, we're hope to continue our collaboration with Serenity Forge to bring the games to more people around the world. They've been a pleasure to work with, and I believe there's more in store from them!
  • ??? We've got a few secret projects brewing, and who knows when we might finally show some teasers for them. c:
All in all, thank you as always for your support and being a part of the series! It's been a long journey, and even as the current series as it is may be coming to an end soon, the characters themselves will stay in one way or another. Cheers & happy new years~ -Kan & the Freebird team

To the Moon Beach Episode launching on September 20th!


After getting away with it for way too long, the release date is finally set to September 20, 2024! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2159210/Just_A_To_the_Moon_Series_Beach_Episode/ 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. https://store.steampowered.com/app/337340/Finding_Paradise/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1182620/Impostor_Factory/ And that's it for now, thanks everyone! Now back to cave mode wrapping it up. Almost there... Hnnnnnnng!!

To the Moon Beach Episode entering final development phase

To the Moon: Bestest Memories Sample Opening Video

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: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wBndVvKPEk
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: https://to-the-moon-bestest-memories.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders 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-)

An EPIC To the Moon RPG incoming. . . but (literally) only The Last Hour of it.

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! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAVj3O45Ezc 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 \_()_/ . . . But perhaps it's best to wait 'til it's out next year to be sure. +Wishlist here, if you dare: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2664600/Last_Hour_of_an_Epic_TO_THE_MOON_RPG/

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.

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!

To the Moon Kickstarter funded in 45 minutes! + Beach Episode Trailer Released

The campaign runs for 30 days, starting from today! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/freebirdgames/to-the-moon-bestest-memories/ As we shoot past the funding, the project is assured, and each backer will receive more and more bonus as we pass the stretch goals (already unlocked a TtM series sticker sheet on the first day).

Missing old Save Files' location

In updating to the new and more stable build (ironically), the location of save files for some localizations may be changed. To get your saves back, you can move the files like this: 1. Go to C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming 2. Your old saves are in the folder "To the Moon". Copy paste all files into the folder "To the Moon - Freebird Games".
For other potential issues (e.g. Achievement unlocking), please see Troubleshooting thread here. Thanks for your patience!


[ 2023-03-22 15:15:42 CET ] [ Original post ]

Updating engine of default build

Default build has been changed to run on Ancurio's MKXP engine, as is with Impostor Factory. This allows for better full screen handling (proper screen ratio), resizable window (alt-enter), a smoother experience, and rare crash bug avoidance. d-(' ' d-) We're trying it on English first, then gradually rolling them out to other languages' builds. *If there's an issue switching to proper language, you can press F7 at title screen to change language manually. P.S. The only drawback may be a potential issue with triggering the achievement in some cases. If that happens, one work-around for the time being is to use the -achievement legacy build to run the ending to get it. To do so, just right click To the Moon from Steam library -> Property -> BETAs -> choose -achievement build from dropdown list, close & let download. d-(' ' d-)

An odd oldie made before To the Moon is now on Steam for free

Originally in 2008 and remastered since, this experimental game was the first time I worked with a modern setting, and paved the way for To the Moon's interior atmosphere. But in all other ways it is veeerrryyy different from what To the Moon is. In fact, I don't know what it is. But under "Similar Games", Steam says "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", so there you have it. \_()_/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/828050/The_Mirror_Lied/ P.S. We got an early start to beat Red Dead 2 in sales with this, but at $0 per copy we're gonna need to make a LOT of sales. Fingers crossed.

Announcing comic project featuring To the Moon Finding Paradise

Hey folks! As you may have heard, we're working on a little comic project, illustrated by Puré.
It will contain one story from To the Moon (ep. 1), one story from Finding Paradise (ep. 2), and a few side stories in between. We're hoping to get it done sometime around this fall or earlier, and making it available for free-viewing on the website, a DLC on Finding Paradise's Steam page for those who'd like to support it, and a physical print edition for the collectors. Cheers, hope y'all are having a great weekend! Kan

To the Moon - animated feature film confirmed

Hey folks! As some of you have heard, a major animated film for the game is now under way. Thought I'd post the news here as well, and here's the vlog with some more info c: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFxkSeQzD14 Points from the official press release: [quote]-To the Moon's animated feature film project is now confirmed. -It will be a collaborative project between Japan (main production) and China (main funding). -First tier Japanese animation production companies are aboard (specifics to be announced in the coming future). -The film project was made possible in partnership with Beijing's Ultron Event Horizon, whose CEO, Danyang Zhao, was responsible for bringing the animated film "Your Name" to China. -Significant budget for the project has been cleared (quoted as somewhere above the budget for the production of Your Name, for reference). -The original creator of To the Moon, Kan Gao, will play a part in the script editing/advising process. -Freebird Games continues to create narrative-driven games with Kan fully committed. The production for the next Freebird game project has already begun, and is quoted to be 'quite bonkers.'[/quote] Thank you for being here, everyone. Honestly, things kind of caught me by surprise too. Lots of hectic times up ahead, but we'll try our hardest to make something worthwhile!

Finding Paradise, the "sequel", is now released!

http://store.steampowered.com/app/337340/Finding_Paradise/ Compared to To the Moon, I'd say that Finding Paradise is more of a subtle and thoughtful story than a drama, which explores the other side of the themes To the Moon started in a complementary way. Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntSOXMwil7A Both games mean a lot to me in different ways, and I hope you could find something in it for you as well. -Kan

Hi all, hope the year's wrapping up well! We're excited to release this little comic project, "To the Moon, too!": http://store.steampowered.com/app/418890/ The comic itself is available in its web-sized version on Freebird Games' site for the public, but this package offers the full-sized digital booklet, bonus content, and helps to support the project (that is now completed). c: It also offers a rebate for more than its cost if any merchandise (To the Moon music boxes, printed comic book) is purchased from https://freebirdgames.bigcartel.com/ (Orders this week should still arrive by the holidays.) There're more details on the Steam page for it. Cheers, hope y'all enjoy it! -Kan P.S.

Now Available - To The Moon, 20% Off.

To The Moon is now available on Steam and 20% off.*

Dr. Rosalene and Dr. Watts have peculiar jobs: They give people another chance to live, all the way from the very beginning... but only in their patients' heads.

Due to the severity of the operation, the new life becomes the last thing the patients remember before drawing their last breath. Thus, the operation is only done to people on their deathbeds, to fulfill what they wish they had done with their lives, but didn’t.

This particular story follows their attempt to fulfill the dream of an elderly man, Johnny. With each step back in time, a new fragment of Johnny's past is revealed. As the two doctors piece together the puzzled events that spanned a life time, they seek to find out just why the frail old man chose his dying wish to be what it is.

And Johnny's last wish is, of course... to go to the moon.
