Midwest Games and 1 Simple Game have announced that “mesmerising, musically-motivated puzzle adventure” The Lullaby of Life is coming to Nintendo Switch.
You play as a plucky particle called Bombo, who, born in the infancy of the universe, must weave through “an awe-inspiring odyssey of light, colour and sound.” Harnessing Bombo’s power, you must play musical notes in wave formations to overcome barriers, awaken allies and bring harmony to an uncharted world full of wonders.
Exploring your kaleidoscopic surroundings, you will recruit musically gifted companions known as Ohmies – each representing the foundational elements of life – who make sonorous sound waves to help you solve rhythm puzzles through timing, focus and dexterity.
“The Lullaby of Life is an artistic pursuit to tell the story of creation in a very experiential way, with almost zero language included,” explains 1 Simple Game studio director Francisco Lara Sikorski. “With influences from string theory to mandalas, we invite you to explore the origins of the universe through challenges to unlock and, perhaps, bigger theories to ponder.”
Midwest Games CEO and founder Ben Kvalo adds: “We’re pleased to welcome The Lullaby of Life as the second title in our quickly expanding roster of games. Every individual has the power to make change, and our small but curious hero, Bombo, is no exception.
“Much like these whimsical wanderers, our team at Midwest Games also strives to make impactful change in the game industry by uplifting the amazing talent of developers in underrepresented communities, whether that’s the Midwest or Mexico.”
The Lullaby of Life will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide in Q2 2024.
