Announcing "To The Moon", the first commercial venture from Freebird Games.

It is available right now on the Wadjet Eye Games store.

You can purchase, view the screenshots and download a demo here.

Quote:
Story:
Dr. Eva Rosalene and Dr. Neil Watts have rather peculiar jobs:

They give people another chance to live. Literally.

There exists a technology that allows doctors to weave artificial memories, such that a patient can request attempts to alter their mind, and wake up with memories of things that didn't actually happen.

This particular story follows Dr. Rosalene and Dr. Watts' attempt to fulfill the wishes of a dying elderly man, Johnny. In their mission to do so, they traverse backwards through the man's memories, unfolding his curious life story before their eyes.

With each step back in time, a new fragment of Johnny's past is revealed. And 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.

Reviews:

"I’m a wreck. I can’t delay telling you: To The Moon is a truly wonderful game. It’s the best game I’ve played this year."
-Rock Paper Shotgun

"To the Moon's story is one of the most memorable I've experienced in a video game in recent memory."
-Shack News
"To The Moon is a wonderful, touching indie tale."
-Ars Technica



Happy Gaming!

Sounds like this is right up my alley - where can I get this game? How much does it cost?

But I'll have to wait until mid-December to get it if it's not a free download, otherwise if it's a free download I can get it now.

And what or where is Wadget Eye Games?

I've just finished this game & WOW! what an unusual, well thought out & fascinating story! The graphics aren't going to be to everyones taste as they're very basic in the gameplay areas although there are some
attractive 'illustrative art' scenes here & there. It's not voiced & there are no ambient sounds - instead there is a gorgeous soundtrack playing throughout which reflects different moods in different places. There is a lot of dialogue, which slowly unravels the story & between the two main characters is often sharp & humorous. The strength of the dialogue & story, for me, overcame the pixel art graphics & lack of voice acting! Brilliant! thumbsup

There's a demo available Becky smile If enough people try the game it's also one that could generate some discussion - the game includes an 'ethical' dilemna. smile

The title reminds me of Jackie Gleason's honeymooners. (Couldn't help myself)
