"YUKOMON - An Indie Dream with a Greater Purpose"
"In YUKOMON, your mission is to save Juju, a little girl turned into a monster after an accident. Capture 200 unique Yukomons and face Team T, a dark force dreaming of a monster-only world, using the Yukotrix — an ancient artifact full of secrets. Crafted by a solo developer, this RPG is more than a game: it’s a personal effort to support my family through tough times."
Why play?
200+ hand-drawn monsters: No duplicates, evolve your favorites with genetic bases.
Unique battles: Cheer for your Yukomon to grant buffs and turn the tide.
120+ vibrant maps: Explore with skate, kayak, fishing, and farming, under dynamic day, night, and weather.
Heartfelt story: Protect Juju and defeat Team T from the DeChamps Corporation.
Cheat Mode: Become the villain with absolute power — but the hero shines brighter.
"With retro art, a Yukopedia, and partial translations (English, Portuguese, Chinese, Russian, Japanese — names in English for aesthetics), YUKOMON is an indie with soul. Every purchase helps make a difference for me and those I love."
"YUKOMON brings a unique and innovative PET battle system: now the trainer actively joins the fight, CHEERING for their Yukomon, granting BUFFS to their partner as a boost to battle."
"In the interface, we took the liberty of partially translating, keeping ability names, characters, Yukomons, and places in English for aesthetics, so it’s not listed as fully translated on Steam."
