  • this game is killing me inside, but it's the way to bring me to life ..

    .. one more time ~

    and this is the last thing that i can do .

  • The story(and music) are truly beautiful, but nevertheless i still think that its more a movie than a game.

  • @thirien59 well it's not like a Visual Novel or Heavy Rain bro. This is a game, a very good game

  • i like every game which has Golden Sun style. gonna try this.

    p.s. soundtrack is great

  • RPG MAKER X PEEEEEEEE

  • I finished this game in one sitting, got drunk off port, started learning the title theme on the piano, and then began to bawl uncontrollably for an exorbitant amount of time. I highly recommend that everyone do the same.

  • F**K those other new games in the market, the game play and graph is good but the story s*cks.

    they should make games w/ good story in it.

  • Good god. I feel like i'm a pretty non emotional dude.... but that trailer sent shivers strait to my soul...

  • @dustynbarlow Agreed, Agreed. 

  • @2:11 that scene is sooooo Chrono Trigger!!

  • omg how not love thi game is a fucking bastard :(

    

  • I heard about this game, they don't make RPGs like this anymore :(

  • @Katana991 Yes they do. They made this.

  • Damn I remember when I first saw final fantasy, then I played even on the Pegasus and Love the RPG was a departure for me since I entered the world of gaming, but when I saw this game I fell in love again is amazing ... something so wonderful is not lived for 7 years! If that was not enough, the music did Laura's another reason to love this game

  • I saw that the Flight of the Conchords reviewed this game... They said "I'm making a lasagna..." Guess I'll play it...

  • this game rocks!

  • Guys, you can get To the Moon's soundtrack (and a few others) for $1! Go to gamemusicbundle (dot) com!

  • Any chance of this game be ported to android?

  • This has to be the most beautiful stories I've ever read. I didn't imagine I'd be possible to feel heartwrenching sadness and crying happiness at the same time.

    Thank you Freebird Games. Thank you.

    (I think I'm going to hug my girlfriend continously for like...a year)

  • I cried like a bitch.

  • @phaedruslive

    Like a Bitch Indeed...

    i just finished it yesterday. one of the best games ever.

  • @phaedruslive you mean cried like a baws! :)

  • I bought this game right out omg I loved this game more than any other rpg game I ever played, was close to shedding a manly tear while playing it

  • This is the game that ends the debate of video games not being art. Nothing like it has ever been seen before and whatever stems from this will only have "To The Moon" to thank.

  • Can someone please tell me that the song at the beginning is in the OST (if it is, what is its title?)? It's just magnificent!

  • @uglymug211 it's basically "Trailer Theme - Part 1" i bought the OST ^-^

  • @uglymug211 It's just called "Trailer Theme - Part 1"

  • Happy ending, but i still sad. Just beautifull

  • I want this video on my Dash 3G phone.

  • Comment removed

  • GOTY

  • GOOOODDDAAAAAAAMN!! this shit was sad and beautiful, gave me a real heart ache!

    i was playing alone in my room and the whole time to myself "DONT CRY, DONT U FUCKIN DARE CRY, MAN UP!" then i started chopping onions

  • I want to be an animator one day, and when I am, I'll ask for permission to make this game into a full scale movie :)

  • It make me cry T^T

  • AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU­AEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOUAEIOU

    

  • @adultviewer2009 Similarities with Inception wouldn't make it possible, for now...

  • @Miltrivd

    that's like saying soul calibur and street fighter are the same or F1 and nascar are the same

  • @Cheeselord123 That's why I didn't say "same", but "similar". I was referring to the idea that it would be very hard to find financial support for a TtM movie if "Inception" is still too fresh on the memory of your audience.

  • total game time about : 4~5 hours

  • Can someone tell me how long is this game?

  • @adultviewer2009 uhm... i haven't played the game yet but based on this trailer, there already is a movie where the premise is very, very similar. i wouldn't be surprised if it was what inspired kan...

    "after life" (a.k.a. "wandâfuru raifu") - 1998

  • @notthere83 I played the game, and they have some resemblance, but at the same time it's different. same with Eternal Sunshine and Memento... it's like they merged and mutated. the main story of this game is more about the man's specific life rather than the setup too.

  • @posmic0 i don't see any connection to eternal sunshine and memento. the only thing THAT reminds me of is western viewers who try to make pathetic connections to the only productions they know (like they e.g. do in the imdb-reviews for "man from nowhere").

    but people whose job it is to do something for a person that is dying?

    at any rate... thanks for explaining about the possible connection :)

  • just finished it :) it kinda ends on a weird note though doesnt it...? with niel and everything. is there gonna be a sequal anytime soon...?

  • I know that this has been said many times before, but I have faith that this could be an amazing movie, and I hope it gets adapted into one!

  • Watching this trailer... Was a good feeling

  • @adultviewer2009 you should pick up the movie, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

  • @rich1051414 will do thanks. :)

    adultviewer2009 here my account got deleted. xD

  • why it's in english only? T_T I'll settle in this case.

  • @alex21539999 There are different translation in work. So maybe you will be able to enjoy the game in an other language soon.

  • @SpiceAndFox Thank you, I'll wait to buy it so !

  • Awesome trailer! What program did you use to make this game?

  • @adultviewer2009 I want it so bad! XD Amazing plot ;3;~

  • I'm only like, 30 mins through this game and I decided to buy it twice.

    And I like gangsta shit and revolutionary's and zombies and stuff.

    Best RPG feeling since Chrono Trigger and FF7.

  • I'm hesitant to buy this game because I'm scared to cry.

  • @skotters then don't get it, you will cry, then laugh, then cry, then cry again from happiness :)

  • Def one of the best stories and music in game. Its basically story telling game but you feel you actually take part in it. That effect wont be the same if it were a movie :)

    Once again this proves games arent about graphics

  • Gee, I play games like Battlefield3, Street Fighter 4, Skyrim such. After trying this little game, I preety much admit the story is pretty awesome and the music is very outstanding. I'm surprised I feel sad and very pity to an old man wishes "to the moon". And as Skyrim fan, I happy to admit that I proud playing this game

  • Comment removed

  • whole game was brilliant, but if i had a chance to change something, it would be the ending. im trying not to spoil anything, but i'd prefer metaphorical and romantic one, not hollywood one.

  • awesome game! Everyone who thinks not like that is an idiot ;)

  • LOL $10 fuck you

  • This game captured my heart its truly emotional throughout the whole sequence of events, its enchanting , spiritual, charming and hauntingly beautiful...its something else.

  • i cried a bit after i played this game till the end... its very sad

  • whats the name of the song starting at 2:02

  • RPG maker XP spotted

  • This is one of the most beautiful story I've ever seen... Great material for movie or book...

  • I honestly don't think a game has ever effected me the way this game has, it's truly a masterpiece and a shame that a game like this will never get the attention it deserves :/

  • @Motherchucker16 Oh friend read around it has started to. It was voted by the editors as the best story of 2011 i think at ign. Thats going to get it noticed

  • @ProierThanYou Well, that's good to hear thanks

  • @ProierThanYou It won Gamestop's "Best Story of 2011" ;)

  • @sebbern0101 Or "Deepest Story of 2011", whatever you want to call it.

  • WHAT a trailer !

    I can't fully express the mixture of feelings i'm having right now..... but i can definitely say, that i have NEVER experienced THAT level of "emotion" from watching a trailer (especially a game-trailer) !

    Brilliant concept - perfect execution.

    Simply beautiful. Bravo Freebird Games !

    BIG SMILE - Thank you!

  • @adultviewer2009

    Why? It's good the way it is.

  • wow never got depressed with my mortality thinking about things in life and whatnot while searching for a game.. tushay freebird tushay.

  • Comment removed

  • It looks...beautiful. :')

  • I haven't even played this game and the trailer has already nearly moved me to tears. Wow.

  • How this awesome game has "Dislike" ?

  • I need to marry this game.

  • Comment removed

  • please try to release this game on Steam, I am really interested in getting it (but I'll buy it only on Steam, sorry)

  • @Mavi222 don't be a douche, buy directly from developers.

  • @notthere83 Why is buying the games only from one source being a douche?

  • @Mavi222 because that source takes advantage of developers, especially indie ones. taking huge cuts for little service. and especially because i don't see why it would make any difference. what does it matter what pay service you provide your credit card information to and what server you download from? it's the same, except that if you buy from developers, they actually get almost all of your money while on steam, they get maybe 50%

  • @notthere83 if I buy it from Steam I will have everything in one big library without having to search for any download links.. I don't care about the money the dev gets from me. Not that I don't like Indie developers, but it's their decision to be or not to be on Steam (and have 25 000 000 potentional customers). I am collector, I have 500+ games on Steam, and I really don't want to care about all the download links to all the games that aren't sold on Steam, so I'll just pass them.

  • @notthere83 just imagine having those 500 games bought from source.. I would need to deal with a shitload of websites if I want to download couple of them.. also I still don't see what's so douchy about wanting to have all the games together in one place, and to not buy directly from devs.

  • @Mavi222 really... your own comfort is so important to you that you don't care about the people who create those games are getting ripped off. it's maybe having a link collection in your browser which will take an effort of seconds per link versus people being able to get a decent return on the hundreds of hours they spent on creating something - or not.

    and you don't see where the douchiness in that is?

  • @notthere83 no I don't see any "douchiness" in my first message. And I don't see anything bad when I want the game on Steam, maybe they will get less money per copy, but they will raise the sales a lot by releasing it there = more money. Unlike selling the game just thru their own website... and yes, my own comfort of having my games in one place is more important for me.

  • @Mavi222 thanks to that argument, we have greedy middlemen in all industries, often causing products to cost more than they should and for the actual producers to get less than they should.

    the douchiness is because of all these implications and your threat to them that you won't buy their product unless they submit to that awful scheme.

  • @notthere83 better then pirating it, isn't it? ;)

  • @Mavi222 actually, i don't think so... i think it's better for people to pirate whatever they want and buy the games they really like directly from the developers at full price rather than buy a whole lot of games where each developers sees rather little of the money, maybe even during discount periods.

  • I'm getting an error when launching the game, Script 'Start Game' line 17: NoMethodError ocurred. undefined method 'rstrip' for nil:NilClass.

    If anyone know how to solve this, please tell me because I'm really desperate to play this game.

  • I jacked off to this game.

  • game of the year.

  • This game is amazing. Its heartfelt, true and most importantly does tell a simple heartwarming story of two people's lives intertwined and how a simple event or decision in one's life can play such a big impact. Definitely one of the best games of all times for me. <3

  • I think the uploader might want to consider changing the comment status to "pending" to filter out the elitist pricks and childish RPG fanboys.

  • wat's this? is it really that good? better than zelda and ff? lol might as well try since they put so much passion into this.

  • Now i'm wondering where the hurtful forms of comments are.

  • Just finish it. I must say it was one heck of a game, will leave you thinking about it.

  • Looks amazing. Any chance of it getting on Steam?

  • @duckotaco 'You don't like this game? I love this game, 'it's amazing. It deeply and emotionally somehow pleased me, 'but it almost made me cry, it's a good game-- I can sincerely relate to a sad video-game, 'and I think this sad video-game's awesome. ;'3

  • @duckotaco Every positive point you made in that comment applies to To the Moon. "Emotions connected to reason" are abundant in the game, as well.

    ... contradiction?

  • @ikanavallis maybe I should just play it - I haven't. But I have checked many gameplay videos and trailer and I just don't see the things I'm interested in. One thing I don't like is how focused on RELATIONSHIPS it is. To me a deep game must be a SOLITARY experience, like Limbo. This is like a soap opera to me. I don't like soap operas. I like solitary, existential experiences - Limbo. Half Life somehow. I don't know...Another World. Games have to yet express their real potential.

  • @duckotaco I can definitely understand your reasoning, and I certainly can't argue against it seeing as it's opinion. Some just don't enjoy purely emotion-driven plots.

  • @ikanavallis I also think that I simply HATE the graphics in the game. And oh, the music!!!!

    I am against the idea of PLOT altogether in a game. It must all be about atmosphere. This game doesn't immerse me in a deep atmosphere like Limbo or Half Life do, no matter what their "story" is. I care little about the story, even in movies. What I want is a mood, a parallel universe to LIVE and BREATHE in. Doesn't matter WHAT happens there. And oh, I hate dialogue in games. I always skip

  • @duckotaco Well then, go play Skyrim. Why the hell were you even here to begin with if you hate the only things that game provides ? I don't go over in racing game trailers to tell people I hate racing games. Seriously.

  • @duckotaco Actually this game isn't like a soap opera - It's much better :) Soap operas suck :/

  • Comment removed

  • A game one must not miss.. Truly a masterpiece.. *wipes tear away* THUMBS UP!

  • MAKE A MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Here lies River & Johnny Wyles. <3

  • The music is too epic..

    FULL OF EPICNESS.

  • I finished the game in 4 hours and I must admit this was my best gaming experience. The story was well-thought out, it really moved me... I really lived the situation and made me actually think about my own life.. How do I cope with my problems? What do I do, to lead a life, to which I can proudly look back when my time comes? So much emotions in this masterpiece that I can't even express myself with words... It can't be described, you have to live it. This game changed me someway... Thank you..

  • This game deserves an Oscar

  • @Ouwen8 You might be kidding right ?

    This game deserves at least TWO FUCKING OSCARS

  • I don't know if you could actually call it a game, but for sure it was a wonderful experience.

  • Created in RPG Maker XP.

  • Best Story of the Year goes too....

    To The Moon

    Hands down. *cheer*

  • this music is fabulous

  • When a game emotionally draws you FROM THE TRAILER... Seriously, I heard about this game TODAY. You know this is a masterpiece

  • brb shedding manly tears. T_T

  • I would've paid much more then 12 dollars to play this.

  • OMG, I really cried T.T. What a great game..!!! Bravo Freebird Games!!!!!!!

  • In only 75 MB we have here one if not the GREATEST LOVE STORY OF ALL TIME!!!!

  • @DPetelin that's not ToraDora.

  • This really is a great game. I remember seeing a preview for it somewhere and downloaded it immediately. I didn't get around to playing it 'til today, and I just finished it about 20 minutes ago. This is the only game I've had the pleasure of playing that has made me cry. Give this game a try, you can even play it for an hour free before you buy it.

  • THis is simply one of the best games i ever played........ Again proves that u don't always need expensive graphics to make a great game.

  • I cry while watching this. If I have to pay 50$ or even 100$ for this, still worth it !

    Very good game, thank you so much.

  • I WANT GUNS, GIVE ME GUNS

    jk

    this looks pretty alright

  • amazing game and ost

  • Wow...I've never cried to a game before. Congrats this is a masterpiece plain and simple.

  • Absolutely amazing game

  • This should be on all consoles!!!

  • This is a masterpiece...! I want this game and get lost in it's beauty. Just amazing music and 2D graphics...love the lighting effects as well. Old School Junkie will share this news...! 

    Keep It Retro..!

  • Why must paypal take so long to get money from my bank?!

  • That was a great great game. I bawled like a baby.

  • Comment removed

  • This game is made witch the game programer RPG Maker? Is a beatiful game, i believe that i will download in sometime.

  • This is one of the best games I've ever played. I'll probably do a review of it. I almost never make reviews for games. I liked it that much @_@

  • @sapnyosentry I think your asking what company makes the game. And it's an indy developer called Free Bird games. It's not an RPG.

  • GOTY... this is what video game is supposed to be about.

    and this is coming from a gamer since the SNES days.

    BUY IT NOW

  • I have played computer games my entire life. This is the single greatest gaming experience I have ever had.

    From such a simple idea comes one of the most powerful and poignant stories in gaming history.

    All with 16-bit graphics and text dialogue. EA games and other mainstream developers......eat your heart out!

    If computer games are indeed art then this game is a piece par excellence!

    Bravo Freebird Games! Bravo!

  • @eronfas101 i hoppe u buyed this game and dont cracked

  • this game should be ported to psn and xbla

  • This is my game of the year.

  • This made me cry twice. Made me proud to be a gamer and sci fi nerd!

  • It's developers like this that give me faith in the future of gaming. Seriously, a trailer like this feels like a Robin Williams movie, and no matter what anyone says, his movies were spectacular. The music in the trailer is amazing, the sprites look very well rendered, and it's a classic style of RPG that even the modern day "gamers" should be able to enjoy.

    WHY ARE YOU NOT ONE OF THE BIG GAME COMPANIES? Throw a few dollars more into making your games, and you could be a big success.

  • when will this be in a humble bundle, so I can pick it up for a penny?

  • Amazing storyline. Reminds me of the good old days playing Snes rpgs... best $13 ever spent. Good work Freebird Games!

  • Worst trailer ever. 80% of it is just fading or black.

  • @realisticHomeboy ikr? this sucks compared to the actually game.... you should go buy it :>

  • @eeek143 I agree. The game is nice. This trailer is not doing the game justice.

  • This game is in a class of its own! Bravo!

  • @Gashie2 Agreed. Apparently the big game publishers hire monkeys to write the storyline in their games. At least it seems that way.

  • Just finished it. Best game I ever played. The story was very touching. The climax got me hating on Eva for a while but playing through the story made me actually smile with tears of joy. Seriously this guy needs to be hired by some major gaming company. This indie stuff is better than every game ever made as of now.

  • just finished playing it a while ago. WOW. simply wow. A masterpiece!

  • I would like to see this ported for the PSP or the upcoming Vita, i wouldn´t mind paying 20 dollars to have it with me all the times.

  • Just... fantastic. People who made this deserve a great award. The game made me cry, it made me laugh, and it was suspenseful when it needed to be. Simply, bravo.

  • Masterpiece ! What a wonderfull amazing game ! It has been long since a story touched me this much... BRAVO !

  • indie isa new genre faggots, if you have a problem with that first you sex my ass with your face

  • Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards
