Warnings

This game requires a constant internet connection for all game modes.

Temtem is an MMORPG featuring creature collecting and turn-based battling with collected creatures. It is made by Crema published by Humble Bundle.

The game was successfully crowdfunded on July 2, 2018 through Kickstarter, and supporters were able to participate in the closed alpha, which began on November 28, 2018.[2][3] With alpha version update 0.5, the game released in Steam Early Access on January 21, 2020, accompanied by significant media coverage and interest from the public as the first MMORPG of creature collecting, with many drawing comparisons to the Pokémon franchise, but fully online.[4] Because of that interest, the Early Access launch resulted in the players being unable to connect or needing to wait in a queue; however, the situation was quickly resolved.[5] The game continued to receive updates after launching in Early Access. Major updates include update 0.5.16 introducing Ranked mode and update 0.6 introducing Kisiwa Island, further continuing the game's campaign.

The game left Early Access on September 6, 2022.

Stuck in "press any key" window

A common issue without a known cause or an always-working solution.[9] The developers acknowledged the issue.[10]
Potential workarounds
  • Make sure that the Steam client is not in offline mode and that there are no internet connectivity issues.
  • Use the keyboard instead of a controller at this particular screen.
  • Make sure that the latest version of the game is running by either closing and starting Steam or Discord or verifying the game cache integrity on Steam.

Notes

  1. Unity engine build: 2019.4.30f1[1]
  2. 2.0 2.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/745920/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (745920) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
  3. Setting a resolution with FullScreen selected changes the rendering resolution, not the output resolution,[6] and the desktop resolution is always used instead.
