A tale of tragedy, familial bonds, and revenge awaits with GameDevTosh and Yanako RPGs’ moody monster tamer Yami Kids – now live on Kickstarter!
A retro, monster taming game, this title focuses on the titular Yami Kids (Yuki and Yumi Yami), and their role in both the Overworld and The Underworld.
The title will also pay host to detailed pixel art, a retro-flavored soundtrack, clever gameplay mechanics that incorporate day and night cycles, and the inclusion of community feedback.

Yami Kids – Kickstarter Launch Trailer
Yanako RPGs’s Yano said the following:
“Shin Megami Tensei: Demi Kids and YU-GI-OH were major inspirations for Yami Kids.
We’re excited to make our first game with our custom in-house monster tamer game engine and are working hard to create a story and characters that all ages can enjoy.
A lot of thought is going into our intertwined overworld and underworld, maximizing customization and replayability, and interlooping ideas in the story with characters weaving in and out of different realms and worlds with some fun time travel elements as well.
We hope fans enjoy it!”
A new trailer for Yami Kids is set to air on September 7 at 9am PT, following Gym Leader Ed’s Monster Taming Direct.
Set to release in 2026, one can also learn more about Yami Kids and wishlist the title via its official Steam page.
One can also pledge their support via the official Kickstarter page.
