Impostor Factory ( To the Moon 3* ) - Lofi mix (1 hour loop)

[@noirby5268]

God, Inpostor Factory somehow hit the hardest for me. Neil is probably my favorite character in the entire series. Ever since To the Moon, I always knew Neil was hiding something. After all, he seemed kinda douchey, ignorant and was mostly there for comedic effect alongside Eva. "You sure do talk about your grandfather alot." - Eva Rosalene That line made me question what and why Neil had Sigmund Corp as a job. Before Impostor Factory, I assumed Neil got into Sigmund because of his grandfather. I thought that, maybe, his grandfather had a dying wish that couldnt be granted; so Neil wanted to fulfill the wishes of other people, because he couldnt fulfill he grandfather's. And then there was the whole Neil needing painkillers. I knew he had some sort of illness, but I regrettably overlooked that and pushed it aside. And then Impostor Factory practically slapped me in the face. It broke me in a way that Finding Paradise and To the Moon didn't. Alot of things that Neil said, did or thought just suddenly clicked for me. And he became such an amazing character. He may be harsh and ignorant at times, but he cares. Neil really, really, REALLY cares. He's aware that he has significantly less time than everyone else around him, but he's trying his best to make the most out of it. Just.. Goddamn this fucking series never fails to make me sob. Fantastic work, Kan Gao. Your games, stories and music are really something else. Something that can't be found anywhere else.

To the Moon broke my record of not crying for 8 years. Would 100% do it again

[@danielathaide3710]

why did you keep track of the years you haven't cried?

[@catnip7755]

@@danielathaide3710 because even when I was a kid I never cried. I thought it would be cool to see how long it would take me to cry again

[@Andr3IX]

​​​@@catnip7755same dude. I was never much of a crybaby. but to the Moon touched me deeply inside. I've grown up with a severe ADHD i could totally understand river's feelings, that made me burst in crying out of nothing. It was like letting flow all the emotions out of my tear ducts, all the strugglins because of my condition through the years...

[@sarigan6365]

Was overjoyed to hear this in the Beach Episode.

[@champ147963]

Earth or Sky? Lavender or Star? For myself or others? Does it really matter? If in the end we're all impostors. A possibility build upon one another.

[@champ147963]

wrote this while listening to Earth or Sky. What I learn from Impostor Factory is it doesn't really matter which way you choose. The important part is how you face and deal with challenges / problems in whichever path you chose. as Neil said "It's only seems perfect because the adversity presented in the context" (or something along that line) hope it's a wonderful day for everyone who read this no matter what you chose to do today!

[@jackharris8661]

sus!!!!!!!!!!

[@tysonfontanez]

This whole series is great and makes me cry but this one in particular kinda hit different, especially the college parts. Examining the "world that could have been" really turns the original concept from the first game on it's head and is just so... I don't even know how to describe it. It makes my heart hurt. I want to replay Impostor Factory

[@misterproject8]

I love that the scene chosen for this video is Quincy and Lyn at the university's window. Their conversation about lavenders and stars is just... incredibly powerful. This game was one of the reasons I eventually ended up coming out to my mother, weird as it may sound. I'm being 100% honest when I say that this game changed my life, and out of all three games from the Sigcorp franchise, this one was the one which impacted me the hardest. Thank you, Freebird Games.

[@WhiteCastle-g6s]

투더문 게임은 인종과 나라를 뛰어넘어서 한국인인 저에게 큰 감동을 주네요. 정말 좋은 스토리 감사합니다. 다음 후속편도 기대할게요! ^_^

[@oseandepartmentofnarcotics]

The neil twist at the end was straight up godlike. Never in my life i have been more surprised of a outcome

[@roman_gulko3815]

Мне чертовски обидно видеть что такие замечательные игры не собирают вокруг себя должного внимания, но я рад, что я все же обратил внимание несколько лет назад на To The Moon и с того дня нисколько не пожалел об этом Спасибо, Кан Гао за ваше творчество. Нас не так много, как хотелось бы, но мы все вам очень благодарны

[@piotrwidelski5193]

Exactly.

[@ТихонМаймулин]

Kan Gao... I can't find any words to talk you, how much your games makes for me... But, it's true. Thank you. You, and your team - GREAT!

Kan knows how to make a person feel Nostalgia.

[@Titanwolf]

This Lofi legit makes me tear up, I loved the To The Moon series and all of them made me cry, no other game has ever done that to me but this game just hit so much different. I love the creators and even did some of my graphic design work based off of the games. Freebird Games will forever hold a special place in my heart and I will never forget them. Whenever the next game comes out, no matter how long I have to wait, I will play the game and I know I will love it to bits

[@itsmegilbert2]

I grew up with Free Bird Games. Thank you for the awesome games Kan!

[@Sea_for_Pleiades]

It's okay. I'm an adult now. I can hold back my tears even after listening to thi- \*crying*

[@solo5865]

Ok, I’ve literally just finished Impostor Factory and this episode was probably the most impactful for me, which honestly is a surprise, I didn’t expect it to be that… close. I suppose it rang true for me more than other episodes, specifically due to dealing with such themes as the consequences of your choices and actions, and the anguish that follows it. The question of whether you should just live your life or try and make an impact on the world. The exploration of selfishness, what constitutes it and how far you can go in your selfishness. And of course, the fragility and transcience of life. The game legit made me want to go and tell or show my mom and my boyfriend that I love them. It reminded me that I should not be so self-absorbed and should appreciate every moment I’ve got with those I love. I know that sounds cheesy AF but it’s a simple truth that I tend to forget way too often. I genuinely can’t wait for the new episode.

[@zinyuzhiri3146]

Más que un juego, una historia llena de emociones

[@KK-cruise]

Came at 4am for the premiere, couldn't bring myself to go sleep and stayed the whole hour. There's really something special about these games and the music, and I'm so glad we are getting content like this. I really liked the tracks in this game and getting a lofi mix is a blessing, thank you for this. Really looking forward to the SigCorp mix!

[@khanhlinhnguyen7583]

After playing Impostor Factory, I cried my eyes out ;-; It was such an amazing and heartbreaking game. Besides, I don’t know if my wish would become true in the future but I wish Neil and Eva would have a happy ending. I want my poor boy to be happy before his time comes 😭🙏

[@Jeanne08960]

I can't believe they actually made lofi mixes for every game, it combines my favorite kind of chill music with the music of my favorite game... I'm so happy

I love this game, and all the others of course, never fail to tear my heart into pieces. Spoilers ahead, but what hit me the most in this one is when Lynri wanted to take Tobi for stargazing and Bill just said to Lynri that even though she might not have left a mark on the world, she sure left a mark on him. Man, I just broke down after hearing that whole conversation. Great story and music as always Kan, here's to another 5 years until the next game!

[@royalcomputer3780]

Heard "you are my sunshine" around 1:40 Almost made me cry then and there

KAN GAO, I LOVE YOUR GAMES AND MUSIC

[@laura34688]

This is so beautiful

[@netawa]

The one who chose to give her dream in believe in future. Believe in those who will be here after her. The one who wasnt the best in anything but was much needed support. I aint sure if Kan will answer that. Is it true that all three games in a sense target particular kinda people? To the moon made me sad Finding paradise made me think And IF and Bird story destroyed me. But that is only case with me. My friend was destroyed on FP.. So I am curious if this writing does aim some kind of person.
