To the Moon, a lovely and emotionally evocative indie adventure game released in 2011, is getting a sequel… sorta.
The game’s called A Bird Story, and it’s a short adventure that will be out in mid 2013. Creator Kan Gao likes to think of it as a bridge between the first and second To the Moons.
“It might be good to think of it more as a standalone game/story though, since all the characters are new (all two of them, counting the bird),” Gao told me in an email last night. “I’m also a bit afraid that people’d think less of it since it’s kind of a prequel to the 2nd ‘full episode.’ It’s its own story, and although it’s just about 30 minutes or so, I think of it as just as important as the 2nd ep.”
Let’s call it… To the Moon 1.5.
