Developer Freebird Games has announced that its wonderful lo-fi tearjerker To the Moon is being turned into a full-length animated feature film.
To the moon, which released to much critical acclaim back in 2011, tells the story of two scientists attempting to change a dying man's memories in order to fulfil his final wish to have become an astronaut and visited the moon.
"By the end, To the Moon has pushed beyond the limits of its central character's story and become about the issues we all face as our days pass by", concluded Eurogamer's review at the time of release, "The convincing banter between the two doctors, the tale of John's carer and her relationship with her children, the stories of friends and families and how they intersect along the passage of life... To the Moon takes the details of human life in its stride, and delivers them with a breezy effortlessness."
