The latest project from renowned game designer Keita Takahashi, famed for his work on Katamari Damacy, is set to take players on a whimsical journey with a unique twist. The game, titled To a T, introduces us to a character named Teen, who finds themselves in a rather peculiar predicament—perpetually stuck in a T-pose, a default stance often seen in 3D modeling and sometimes associated with glitchy video game characters.
Gameplay and Concept
In To a T, players will assist Teen in navigating the challenges of everyday life, all while grappling with their immovable arms. Takahashi describes the gameplay as intentionally simple, emphasizing a humorous approach that prioritizes enjoyment over complex mechanics. During a recent interview at FGS Live from Gamescom LATAM, he highlighted a particularly amusing moment where Teen brushes their teeth, stating, “No smart game design, game mechanic, nothing, nothing. Just press a button and then spit the water. That’s it. I like that.”
This lighthearted philosophy is mirrored in the game’s catchy soundtrack, with the latest trailer featuring the infectious tune, Cooking is so ah-mazing…, which has already captured the attention of fans.

While the original Katamari Damacy is also listed, it is not on sale at the moment; however, it typically drops to .49 during promotional events, making it worth the wait for savvy shoppers eyeing the upcoming Steam Summer Sale.
