Hey everyone! I’m Matt Kap! Some of you may know me from my work on Castle In The Darkness, Astalon: Tears of the Earth, and The Binding Of Isaac: Rebirth.

I’d like to introduce LABS next game, LOVISH! What started off as a side-project that I was messing around with in between Castle In The Darkness 2 tasks (that’s still going smoothly by the way) has become a full and proper game!

LOVISH is an action-adventure platformer that’s full of heart (get it?)! Play as Sir Solomon, as he quests through 50+ bite-sized stages in order to “rescue” the “love of his life”, Princess Tsuna, from the grasp of the evil Devil Lord! Between every stage, you will see a random event scene, in which anything could happen! Honestly, the less said the better, there are a lot of surprises. Find items, defeat monsters, see familiar faces, and collect crowns on your way to your showdown with Devil Lord!

Working on LOVISH has been the most fun I’ve had working on a videogame project, and I think that fun and light-heartedness shows through in the game itself. Available now, as part of Steam Next Fest, is a short and independent prologue demo that tells a little bit of the story up until the events of the main game.

I’d love to hear what you think, so please try it out and wishlist it :).
Next time I’ll talk a bit about the team behind LOVISH! See you!
