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:

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:

- 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~
