DANGEN ENTERTAINMENT AND LABS ANNOUNCE NEW 8-BIT ACTION-ADVENTURE GAME, LOVISH, AT STEAM NEXT FEST OCTOBER 2024
OSAKA – October 14, 2024 – DANGEN Entertainment and developer LABS have announced Lovish, an outrageous 8-bit action-adventure game, revealed today at Steam Next Fest October 2024. In Lovish, players take the role of love-struck Sir Solomon as he fights his way through the Devil Lord's castle in nostalgic, room-by-room action! He's on a mission to “rescue” the princess and “win her heart”—but he's going to encounter a lot more than he bargained for along the way!
Each of its 50+ levels throws players into a wild mix of combat, platforming, and puzzles, with multiple objectives to keep them on their toes. After clearing each room, players are treated to randomized event scenes, where anything can happen—from unexpected RPG fights to bizarre outcomes! Players can aim for a room's best clear time for bragging rights with friends. With a diverse cast of over 100 characters, an in-game shop, secret bonuses and mini games, Lovish offers a quirky retro-style adventure packed with surprises, laughter and replayability.

A demo of Lovish is currently available on Steam. The full game is set to launch on PC platforms in Q1 2025.
Sir Solomon's Lovish Saga: A Quest for the Heart (Maybe)
Matt Kap and LABS present Lovish, an outrageous 8-bit action-adventure unlike any other! Quest with Sir Solomon through a series of bite-sized rooms, as he attempts to free Princess Tsuna, the woman he loves, from the Devil Lord's clutches!
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.
As Sir Solomon, venture through a series of bite-sized rooms, slicing up monsters, collecting items, and getting to the exit! After clearing each room, enjoy a short cutscene, 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:
Lovish marks the second collaboration between Matt Kap and DANGEN Entertainment, following Astalon: Tears of the Earth. Matt Kap commented, “I'm excited to reveal Lovish at Steam Next Fest and share this ridiculous, heart-driven adventure with everyone. We can't wait for players to experience the fun and surprises we've packed into this game!"
