What Is Toge Productions?

Updated

Toge Productions is an Indonesian independent game development and publishing studio based in Tangerang, Indonesia. It develops and publishes its own titles—including Coffee Talk and A Space for the Unbound—and also runs initiatives such as the Toge Game Fund Initiative (TGFI). If you are trying to understand who is behind a game like Coffee Talk, or whether this studio might publish or fund a project, the sections below cover what the studio does and where its public footprint is visible.

What the studio does

The studio describes itself as an independent game development and publishing studio that grows games players enjoy. In practice, that means two roles:

  • Development: creating its own games, such as the zombie survival series Infectonator and the barista narrative game Coffee Talk.
  • Publishing: supporting and releasing other developers' games under its label.

The studio was founded in 2011. Its public blog notes a 15th anniversary celebration in 2024, which is consistent with that founding year.

Games associated with Toge Productions

The studio's site lists the following titles as games by Toge Productions:

Game What it is, per the studio's description
Coffee Talk A coffee brewing and heart-to-heart talking simulator about listening to fantasy-inspired modern people's problems and helping them with a warm drink
A Space for the Unbound A slice-of-life adventure with pixel art set in late-90s rural Indonesia, about overcoming anxiety and depression and the relationship between a boy and a girl with supernatural powers
When the Past was Around A point-and-click adventure puzzle game about love, moving on, and letting go
Necronator: Dead Wrong A comedic micro RTS with deck-building: collect and deploy undead units, build a deck, and use rule-bending relics
Rising Hell A vertical platformer rogue-lite with heavy gothic metal music, climbing out of a changing hell while fighting demons
Kriegsfront Tactics Listed among the studio's games (no description captured in the available page text)
Infectonator 3: Apocalypse Part of the studio's zombie survival series
Rage in Peace Listed among the studio's games

If you are deciding whether a specific title is a Toge Productions game, check it against this list rather than assuming from genre alone—the catalog spans narrative simulators, adventure games, RTS, and platformers.

Publishing, funding, and studio growth

Beyond making games, the studio's public activity shows an interest in supporting the wider indie scene:

  • Toge Game Fund Initiative (TGFI): announced in 2021 as a funding initiative for game projects.
  • Acquisition: in March 2022, Toge Productions announced the acquisition of Tahoe Games, an indie studio in Kediri, East Java, Indonesia, for 4 billion Rupiah.
  • Announcements and sales: the studio's blog carries game announcements and sales, including an anniversary event in 2024 featuring titles such as Moses & Plato – Last Train To Clawville alongside sales and further announcements.

For a developer weighing whether to approach the studio, these are the concrete signals available: it has a named fund, a track record of publishing, and at least one studio acquisition. The public pages do not state application terms, deal structures, or timelines for the fund, so those details would need to come from the studio directly.

Where to find it

The official site, togeproductions.com, is the primary source for the game catalog and blog announcements. The site also links to social media accounts for following updates. The available page material does not list pricing, storefront links, or login requirements, so treat store availability and purchase options as things to confirm on each game's own page.
