At the end of August, it was announced that Nicalis will be publishing Save me Mr Tako: Tasukete Tako-San on Switch. Originally, the plan was to have it ready sometime this year. With 2017 just about over, unfortunately, we’ll have to wait until 2018 for Save me Mr Tako.

In a blog update, Deneos states that Save me Mr Tako “is now almost ready for submission”. Additionally, “it will be released as soon as possible next year.”

L.F.O.: Lost Future Omega was announced for Switch earlier this year. Today, Mebius confirmed that it’s slated for December 28 in Japan.

In L.F.O., the music played has its sound synced based on the player’s actions and the changes on screen. Some of the sounds from the previous stage can be chosen to be brought to the next stage. Therefore even reaching the same stage may result in different arrangements based on the routes chosen in the playthrough.
