Many thanks for the kind words, folks! Gomez 95% of every sporkful of food that goes into my mouth shall be devoted to meeting the expectations.

I've been working hard on it this summer. With the current schedule, the game is set to be finished around September of this year, then I'll leave a month for final testing and other pre-launch preparations. Although, during this period, I am susceptible to serious head injuries from falling down the stairs, so no contractual deadlines are provided.

Anyhow, some new screenshots:





Mm, I don't think I've talked about game-play much yet here. . . Here's a brief description; I'll post some more detailed stuff on it later.

Given its story-oriented nature, the game-play mainly consists of the process of traversing through the memories via "mementos". A memento can be used to travel when it exists in two relatively close memories simultaneously.


The time bar constantly visualizes your progress in Johnny's life, to hopefully sleep-deprive you until you're done.

To be able to use each memento, 5 "memory links" from the current construct must be acquired through various means, depending on the memory.

Additionally, mini-games and puzzles are scattered about wherever appropriate.


Anyhow, I'll have to prepare some more screenshots and the like to make a more detailed post on that. And also for next time, supershigi/Laura Shigihara made a recording of her awesome song for the game~! Grin I'm super excited for it. Cheers, and good luck with everyone's projects!

Actually I'll just release an in-game video in the near future.

For now, here're two posters by the game's spriter, Alisa Christopher. c:

Thanks everyone. c:

I've just re-released a short free adventure game of mine called The Mirror Lied to cross-promote To the Moon:

They share a similar play style of RPG & adventure game hybrid, though To the Moon is a lot more narrative oriented with a concrete story.

All right.  I bought this and played it all the way through in two sittings.


I've been waiting a long time for the first game that would make me cry.  And this was it.

Brilliant, phenomenal work, sir.  And to others: this game comes highly recommended.

This looks and sounds amazing! Can't wait to see it finished. The title reminded me of this cheesy 90's song, of course. Embarrassed

EDIT:
Wait. It's done? Droop
