Lobotomy Corporation

Notice of Update schedule



The official release that was due today is postponed to next week.
But the content until the ending will be added in today's update.

The reason is that,

  • Price was raised earlier than official release due to mistakes
  • In-game balance and bugs are not stable


Therefore, we are going to update the end contents today, receive weekly feedback, fix bugs, and improve the quality.

Today's updates include:

  • DAY 46~50 Story
  • New Department 'Architecture Team'
  • New boss battle
  • New Ordeal
    ※ New Ordeals appeared after 46 days have been added.
  • Endings
  • Story replay viewer
  • Tutorial

The official release is aimed for April 7th.



Thank you.

Notice of price changes



The price has risen to $ 25 before the official release.

We are not good at adjusting the price through Steam, so the price has increased unexpectedly.

The price can't be changed again in a short period of time by the steam system, making it inconvenient to use.

We apologize for this confusion.

We 'll try to release the game as soon as possible.

Again, we apologize for the abrupt price change.

Notice on Price Variation and Art Book Production



1. Price change guide



As early access is terminated and the game is officially released, the game price will be raised to $25.

2. Artbook production



After the official release, the artbook will be produced.

Artbooks are made in the direction that show the concept of the game, not an illustrated book that contains all the art in the game.

The artbook consists of the following.





※ The image is an example and may be changed at the time of actual production.


  • Production schedule: late April to early May
  • Approximately 150 pages
  • 50 Abnormalities
  • Includes in-game concept and manual


However, it is difficult to say for sure that mail order of artbooks will proceed.
This is because the profitability of artbook sales is unclear.

As a result of inquiring the book publisher about the production of an art book, it has been rejected because its profitability is not good.
For this reason, the artbook will be produced by our self-publishing.
In this case, there is a great deal of risk involved in the mass production and mail-order sales because the costs and revenues of sales cannot be predicted.

After the official release, it will be decided to sell artbooks in the future based on the costs incurred after producing the art book for Tumblbug Rewards.

If it is difficult to sell physical artbooks, we could proceed to sales in a digital artbook.


3. Soundtrack



The original soundtrack created through outsourcing will be uploaded into the game folder after the official release.
After the official release, you can check sound files in the folder of the path where the game is installed.

However, since the music files other than the original sound are purchased by purchasing sound assets, they are not uploaded into the sound folder.


Notice about Official Release Schedule



The official release of Lobotomy Corporation is scheduled for March 31, 2018.
If urgent issues occur during the development process, it may be delayed to April 7, 2018 after a week-long maintenance period.


On official release, an existing trailer is used, no separate trailer is not made.

After the official release, about 6 Tumblbug reward Abnormalities will be updated with free DLC.

After the DLC launch, we will focus on developing the sequel after Lobotomy Corporation.
As a result, there will be no additional Abnormalities update after DLC.

During the official launch, we will develop hard so that players can play the completed game within the time we promised.

Thank you.
