Hi everyone!

TeamMonkey is very excited; the story chapters of the full game are slowly being finished, for the first time our hero left his village to go on his long journey; wandering through the forest, slaying monster, listening to the atmospheric soundtrack and approaching the first BOSS battle; a truly touching moment for all of us, seeing this amount of piece of work finally coming together.

Next to the story, the adventure will get its final touch on the graphics: Textures and models are refined and environments polished; characters receive advanced shader rendering to further enhancing the artwork style of the game.

New companions are on their way to exposure, expect first time ever reveal of the cannon travel system and imperial guards with the next media update.

TeamMonkey will need your help in the near future to make a dream come true: In order to turn this game into a fully fleshed game with full STEAM access, we will need to enter into a licensee agreement with VALVE. However to afford the licensee fee, applying for kickstarter project funding might be the only option for us. Please stay tuned for further announcements regarding this issue.

Thank you for your continuous support!

Dear JoKeR, Return to Mana has never been part of the "mana universe" nor has it any connection with games such as "Seiken Densetsu" or "Final Fantasy", it is based on its own characters, story and universe.

Well, I thought the refered "mana series", has licensed name of "X of Mana" title name, there are quite some other games which have "MANA" in game name, "Chaos of Mana", "MoonMana".

If I would make a comparison, I would compare it to the UFO-Aftermath and the X-COM francaise. Different name, story, universe, but inspired by itself.

However, in case there should be any issue in the future, we are of course very open to change the name to further seperate us from any title mentioned above.

Yep. But if so, it will be indie title priced (Very cheap). But again - nothing has been announced yet.
