Tasomachi: Behind The Twilight is an action adventure game where you explore a mysterious Eastern themed town.

Tasomachi is a relaxed 3D platformer that is all about unwinding and exploring a sleepy Far-Eastern themed world to your heart's content, collecting items while navigating platforming sections and completing requests from NPCs.

Yukumo is a young girl who travels around in her airship, her pride and joy. When visiting a particular Eastern town to run some errands her airship suddenly breaks down. She decides to explore the town to search for parts for repair; however, the town has fallen silent with no trace of the people who live there, the only inhabitants being a strange cat-like species...

Every new item helps repair Yukumo’s airship, earn new upgrades, and unlock stylish outfits. Pilot the airship through the skies of this mysterious town and explore more of an awe-inspiring world, filled with temples, landscapes, and icons taking inspiration from diverse cultures and extraordinary geography. Explore the world while vibing to a soundtrack by Ujico*, a Japanese musician with more than 1 million YouTube subscribers and 600,000 monthly Spotify listeners.


Developer nocras releases his debut title after contributing both 2D and 3D art to many of Japan’s biggest games of the 2010s. His work includes 3D design on Final Fantasy XIII-2 and Final Fantasy XIV; 2D art for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Xenoblade Chronicles 2; and field map design for Pokemon Sword and Shield. He developed his skills and experience on these games, all in preparation for his independent premiere.

“I’ve contributed to so many great games, but I always found something compelling about the Nintendo 64 era of platformers,” said nocras, the sole developer of Tasomachi. “I wanted to make something that felt like what those games felt like while artistically exploring Far Eastern themes that always intrigued me.”

Key Features:

  • Wonder into a mysterious and sleepy town where time flows slowly and explore to your heart’s content.
  • Communicate with the “locals”.
  • Explore highways, bridges, ravines and other such scenic locations.

Tasomachi is currently in development for PC (Steam), scheduled for Spring 2021.
