Modular synthesizers and video games combined? I'm in! Look Mum No Computer has developed their own video game
In the world of gaming, a unique twin-stick shooter action-RPG has made its grand entrance. Named after the popular YouTube channel and synth project, Look Mum No Computer, the game is now available on Steam, GOG, and Epic stores for PC, Mac, and Linux users[4][5].
Created by Sam Battle, the musician and synth personality behind Look Mum No Computer, and developed in collaboration with German developers The Bitfather, the game transports players into the quirky pixel-art universe of Soldersworth[1][2]. The story follows Sam and his synthesizer sidekick Kosmo, who shrink down to enter machines, battle rogue devices, fix them from the inside, and restore harmony by overcoming bizarre creatures and epic boss fights.
Key features of Look Mum No Computer include an interactive music system that allows players to craft and upgrade unique synthesizer modules inspired by Look Mum No Computer’s real synth designs[1][2][3]. These modules serve as both powerful weapons and instruments, shaping the game's evolving electronic soundtrack. Players can customise their playstyle and experiment musically, with nods to famous creations like the flamethrower organ[1].
The game's dynamic combat system requires players to balance energy management across equipment slots, ensuring a harmonious blend of offense and music generation during battles against swarms of enemies like acid-spewing capacitors and undead broccoli[1].
Exploring strange digital landscapes within machines, completing quests for NPC inhabitants, and engaging in epic boss fights are all part of the adventure, helping players progress the story and game world[1][2].
Look Mum No Computer's innovative approach offers something for fans of retro games, electronic music, and the DIY spirit embodied by Look Mum No Computer. With its unique blend of modular synthesizers and video games, the game has already garnered excitement from enthusiastic reviewers[6].
The game is priced at £11.99, with a 20% discount available until 7 August[7]. For those eager to dive into this musical adventure, the game can be purchased from Steam.
