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!

Last but not least... Thank you everyone in the Freebird community for your support!

Greetings Universe Architects,

In the last days of summer, we shared our game at AnimeNYC. There, players got to play an early version of Explore: Rocks — Set in Stone, that we released last week.



We’ve been on a roll with Explore Events. We went from having a new one every six months to five this year (with more to come). We are really proud of this accomplishment, and we see it as a testament to the team's enthusiasm and hard work.

We also completed our first ever Explore Event partnerships. For the first one, we teamed up with Brooklyn based Pariah Studios to create Explore: Visual Art — The Power of Images. Later that summer we did a brand partnership with YouTube influencer TierZoo for Explore: Cats — A Feline Journey. It was exciting to collaborate with these creatives and develop something cooler than each of us could have made on our own.



Last week we released yet another new event, Explore: Rocks — Set in Stone. It was inspired by an April Fool’s joke we made in 2021. After seeing the joke, a surprisingly large number of fans tirelessly advocated for a Geology event, and three years later we were able to make their dream a reality (as well as share this topic with new players).

Get spooky! In honor of our favorite chilly season, we are working on a different type of Explore Event. We’ve never done this type of content before and we are curious to hear what fans think of it. We'll be talking more about it in our upcoming October livestream, so stay tuned.



Outside of Explore Events, the Beyond is still in the works. We will soon be releasing Episode 26, with Episode 27 slated to release before the end of this year. Beyond Phase II is coming to a close with its current stage of development. Our amazing beta players have already seen a sneak peak of some of the content coming up. It will take time before all that content will be available to all players, but not to worry— it is not the end. As we take a pause with the Beyond, we will be reevaluating in what shape or form more space content will be developed. Space is still #relevant.



Another piece of content that will go on pause is Civilization in the Primary Tree Simulation. As players remember, we started renovating the Ancient Civilization garden in October of 2023. Following the renovation, we also added new content to the Primary Simulation tree with new Augmentations to purchase. The release of the Age of Exploration closes out the Ancient Civilization track with Scientific revolution moving into the Modern Civilization track. We will use the time to focus on features and bugs that players have been requesting for a while. For example, quality of life improvements, first-time player experience, Main Simulation tree tuning, old prevalent bugs and much more. We're excited to be working with our beta testers on these important updates. For those interested, follow the instructions on our official subreddit.



Lastly, to reflect the amount of work we’ve accomplished over the past months, here is an updated roadmap along with features we are currently working on. Our last roadmap was in April. We're happy to say that we've hit our goal in running more contests, and we hope everyone who's participated in them so far has been having fun. We want to give our players the opportunity to showcase their talents in different areas. We also accept feedback and requests regarding future contest ideas. As a reminder, roadmaps are scheduled to go out two times a year. Dev diaries are scheduled once every quarter, a total of four per year. The next one will be in December.



We’re grateful to each of our players for your continued support of our game, especially to our beta players who test rough versions of features we are working on. Cells is going through a time of change with exciting new updates on the horizon. We look forward to sharing this journey with our greatest community ever and we always look forward to your feedback.

Stay cellular and cozy!

The premiere of our game took place a week ago, and today we have some important information to share with you. We’d like to provide details regarding the patch aimed at addressing various issues. Over the past week, we have focused on resolving both major and minor bugs across all platforms, which were not only affecting the overall gameplay experience but also preventing progress in some parts of the game. We understand how frustrating these problems have been and appreciate your patience as we work to improve the stability and performance.

Our primary goal is to ensure that you can fully enjoy the game, and we are dedicated to addressing all existing issues as quickly and thoroughly as possible. In the meantime, we would greatly appreciate your feedback and insights. If you encounter any further problems or have suggestions, please feel free to share them with us on our Discord server. Your input is invaluable in helping us improve the experience for everyone.Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through these challenges.

Since the release two months ago, we've gathered a lot of player feedback, which has helped us identify ways to improve Gobs. We've already released a series of small updates with fixes and quality-of-life improvements based on player suggestions, but a larger patch was needed to address game balance.

This patch is thus designed to correct all the balance issues which were reported or which we noted ourselves. Overall it should make the endgame more difficult, by increasing the diversity and strength of late-game enemies, and by nerfing some abilities that were too easy to exploit. We hope it will make the game more challenging and interesting for all types of players. it also contains quality of life improvements, like adding a "basic" attack with no essence cost on wands, to avoid wands users to rush in melee once their essence is depleted when playing in real time.

More balance patches and quality-of-life updates will certainly follow as we gather more feedback. We also plan to add new content, such as the "Alchimechanics" skill in items, hopefully in the next large update.

- Balance changes:
- rework mobs generation. Allowing larger mobs to vary end game enemies.
- nerfing spells at high skill value
- critical strike nerf master level
- slightly lower level-up bonuses
- more coherent skills table per background
- sharper items price increase with level
- increase items weights, especially shields
- tweaking shield skill (partially ignore shield weight) and armor skills
- faster reload on long runs
- rescoring all enemies
- makes several skills more powerful at grand master level
- lower teeth given by difficult quests
- night penalty: reduced visibility and attack malus at range
- wands: add weak base attack with no essence cost; to avoid mages rushing to melee and getting quickly killed once their essence pool is empty.


- Fixes:
- implement only one GM per skill
- fix non viewable control zones
- wig-it-yourself: quest description;
- sell quest show target arrow to return once items have been found
- high level enemies not as strong as they should be
- fix targeted gobs for mass meat shield
- fixes in player difficulty autoscoring

Other:
- death magic: remove friendly fire.
- joker random upgrades are seeded on day
- allow to upgrade an item without unequipping
- faster dungeon and saves load
