This game has been delayed for so long, that I constnatly find myself forgetting about it's existance, and thinking that it'll never come out at all. If you have played To The Moon and you "like" FreeBird Games on Facebook, or have visited "their" website, you'll know about the upcoming prequel to the sequel of To The Moon.
Despite it supposedly being very short of a "game", it's taken FOREVER for Kan (the developer) to make something out of it. Parts of the OST is released on bandcamp, and I must say that they are actually very good pieces, as expected from Kan "Reives" Gao.
You can listen to the OST tracks that has been released so far here: http://freebirdgames.bandcamp.com/album/a-bird-story-ost
And here you can read about the... Delayed... game: http://freebirdgames.com/games/a-bird-story/
If you haven't played To The Moon, I highly suggest picking it up during the Steam Summer Sale! It's one of the first pieces of entertainment that truly touched me a lot. I have tried replaying it, but sadly the experience is not the same at all. Much because I have since I played TTM experienced some far heavier drama, and due to this TTM feels like child's play compared to other things I have experienced. That, on top of the fact that I know what is going to happen, makes it rather uinteresting. I still like to listen to the OST every once in a while and remember. Another distracting factor for me is the more light-hearted moments that I now find to be annoying instead of entertaining. The first time I played it, they were entertaining, because I didn't expect those things to happen, but now that I know about them, it feels like fillers, which it certainly isn't.
Is anyone else here looking forward to A Bird Story? Do you think it will be released this year, or will we have to wait until 2015?
