[UPDATE 27/08/20: moon is now available worldwide on the Nintendo Switch!]

Well, the year is almost over, and it was a good one for me — thank you very much for all of your support as we released Dandy Dungeon on Switch and Steam, and moon on Switch here in Japan.

I’ve been looking over comments you’ve all been leaving on our Discord and our Twitter lately, and I think it’s well past time to give you some direct progress updates from our little studio.

I know we said the English release of moon would be “coming very soon”, and clearly that was a little optimistic. I’m really sorry it’s taking this long, but the translation and implementation of moon is… very delicate. We need more time to finish it, but please rest assured the English version is still on the way, and we hope you can be patient with us!

The English version of moon is being prepared by a tiny, tiny Onion team. I mean… Onion Games itself is very, very small, but these Tiny Onions are working very hard, every day, to get everything ready for you.

The localization of moon is actually going great! But there are many, many more things involved than just translating the text. I’d say that the translation itself is more than 70% done, implementing that translation is around 20% done, and then debugging and checking the translation is about 5% done.

I think, all added up, the project as a whole is at about 40% done…. probably!

We have all been working incredibly hard lately, juggling multiple projects and issues at once (including…. new games no-one’s even seen yet!). But that means even though we’re working hard, we’re working slow. I hope everyone is ok waiting until everything is really, truly ready!

Personally, I want to be even more involved than usual in the localization process, and also contributing more to our New Game Ideas, but… to tell the truth.. my brain, my body… my mind are all so, so exhausted.

I need a proper rest. I have been working too much this year. I need just a little time to recover ahead of everything we’ll have coming in 2020.

Give me time!

Give us more time, please!

Thank you very much,
Yoshiro Kimura

PLUS! With the release of Dandy Dungeon on Steam, we’ve made it available at a lower price… for everyone, everywhere! This isn’t just a launch discount: we’ve permanently dropped the price of the game to $18.99 / €15.99 / £14.49, on all platforms, including the Nintendo Switch!

So, what’s different about the Windows/Mac version of the game? Well, it contains all of the rebalancing and refining that went into the super-acclaimed Nintendo Switch version (just look at all of these amazing reviews!), including its own world leaderboard that will track the best dungeon runs of you, and all of your friends on Steam!

It also features full support for your favorite controller, as well as a new mouse and keyboard scheme that makes tracing your path through the dungeon as easy as it ever was on a touchscreen!

But that’s not all! Using Valve’s free Steam Link app, you can stream Dandy Dungeon.. to your mobile device or tablet and play with the touchscreen itself! (That image above is the game running on an iPad Pro!) It feels super great! There are so many ways to play now!

So what are you waiting for? Go get Dandy Dungeon on Steam and tweet at us to let us know what you think!

HEY… WHATEVER HAPPENED TO DANDY DUNGEON 2?

Now that Dandy Dungeon has been released on new platforms, you’re probably wondering… where’s that huge update we promised several months ago? Well, we decided that giving you an entirely free update that more than doubles the size of the game.. wasn’t quite enough.

So, when the update arrives — on both Steam and Switch — it will include a brand new feature! A new mode never before seen in Dandy Dungeon, anywhere! Something really cool! That’s all we have to say about that for now, but… it’s coming soon!

You should also come join us in the official Onion Games Discord and let us know how much you’re loving Dandy Dungeon and all our other games by clicking right here!

Today we are announcing…. new ways to play! We’ve been hard at work on long lonely nights and now… Dandy Dungeon ~Legend of Brave Yamada~ is coming to Steam for both Windows and Mac! It’s totally ready for you to go wishlist right now, and will be released very soon!

Following the release of the Nintendo Switch version, we’ve packed the PC version with all of the same leaderboards and upgrades we brought to the handheld version — along with new, PC-focused controls, for you to enjoy however you prefer to play!

People have said so, so many great things about the Nintendo Switch version, so we’re extremely excited to let a ton of new players experience the world of Dandy Dungeon for the first time!

You should go wishlist the game on Steam right now, so you can be the first to know when it’s released! It’ll be soon! Very soon! We hope you love it!

We’re just days away from moon coming to Nintendo Switch in Japan! Anticipation is at a fever pitch!

While work continues on the translation to bring moon to the West for the very first time, we’re celebrating this landmark release by putting out a series of wallpapers for Windows, Mac and mobile phone!

You can find links to all the wallpapers on the official Japanese moon site, where you can also peek at the digital manual for the Switch version of the game!
