Hey everyone! This is Matt Kap! Some of you may know me from my work on Astalon: Tears of the Earth, Castle In The Darkness and The Binding Of Isaac: Rebirth.
Id like to introduce LABS' newest game that was just announced, LOVISH! What started off as a side-project that I was messing around with in between Castle In The Darkness 2 tasks (thats still going smoothly by the way) has become a full and proper game!
LOVISH is an action-adventure platformer thats 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!
Check out the LOVISH Demo on Steam

Working on LOVISH has been the most fun Ive had working on a videogame project, and I think that fun and light-heartedness shows through in the game itself. Available now, is a short and independent prologue demo that tells a little bit of the story up until the events of the main game.
Id love to hear what you think, so please try it out and wishlist it :).
Thank you for all the support!

Sir Solomons Lovish Saga: A Quest for the Heart (Maybe)
Sir Solomon and the Saviors of Light depart Castle Cornelius to free Princess Tsuna from the grasp of the evil Devil Lord! But the knight is worried... What if after being freed, the princess falls in love with one of his friends instead of with him? So he does what anyone would do when blinded by love, and ditches his friends! Solomon ventures into the Devil Lord's castle alone, vowing to steal the princess's heart. LABS and Matt Kap present Lovish, an outrageous 8-bit-styled action-adventure game! Venture through a series of bite-sized rooms, slicing up monsters, collecting items and getting to the exit! After exiting each room, enjoy a short event scene, in which anything could happen! Will you find an item? A random encounter RPG fight? Will the world get destroyed? Find out by conquering each room of the Devil Lord's castle, one challenge at a time!
Features:
- 50+ fun levels to play through, each with multiple objectives!
- Wacky randomized event scenes between levels with hundreds of outcomes! You never know what you're gonna see next!
- Collect a variety of items to upgrade Solomon's abilities, or expand the game in meaningful (and unmeaningful) ways!
- Spend your pennies (in-game currency to be clear, no microtransactions here) in the in-game shop!
- 100+ characters, some of which were designed by world-famous manga artist Ryusuke Mita (Dragon Half)
- An exciting, 20+ tune soundtrack by Matt Kap (Castle In The Darkness, Astalon: Tears of the Earth)
- Beautiful human-artist-made pixel art! Even the in-game AI art is drawn by a human person!
- More secrets than ever before! (But this is the first game in this series, so that doesn't mean much, I guess.)
- Unexpected guest characters
- And lots more!
