Today marks a significant milestone for ambr, the Tokyo-based company known for its innovative applications. They have officially launched the open beta for the multiplayer functionality of their PC game,
gogh: Focus with Your Avatar, available on Steam.
What is gogh?
gogh is an avatar-centric focus-support application that has gained immense popularity, especially among Gen Z illustrators and students. Users can customize their
3D avatars and rooms to create a dedicated space that promotes concentration and productivity. With over 1.5 million downloads globally, this app has truly captured the attention of its target audience.
Multiplayer Feature Details
The newly introduced
multiplayer feature is touted as the largest update since the game's release. While the mobile version of gogh (available on iOS and Android) has supported multiplayer capabilities since last year, the Steam version brings a unique set of functionalities. This feature allows users to make their rooms publicly accessible and invite others to join. Within the multiplayer rooms, users can display tasks above their avatars and engage with predefined emotes for communication.
A key aspect of this feature is the absence of text and voice chat, which means users can focus solely on their tasks without the distractions of conversation.
Open Beta Testing Period
The open beta for the multiplayer feature commenced today and will run for one week, concluding on September 1st at 5 PM. All users who have purchased the Steam version of gogh can participate. The company encourages participants to provide feedback for further improvements.

gogh beta test webpage.
In addition to the beta, a limited-time 25% discount is available until 2 AM on August 31st, making it a great opportunity for potential users to join at a reduced price.
Mobile Version of gogh
The mobile versions of gogh have been instrumental in building its user base, allowing individuals to create engaging desktop environments that enhance their focus. The app’s versatility and customization options have contributed to its staggering success among younger users.
