A Boy and His Blob Switch

After it originally came to Wii more than a decade ago, A Boy and His Blob is now on the way to Switch. Ziggurat Interactive announced that it will be putting WayForward’s classic on the console.

A Boy and His Blob was a re-imagining of the classic NES game. It’s a side-scrolling puzzle platformer with 2D hand-drawn animation. You’ll be controlling a young boy as he works with his friend, an alien blob-like creature with shapeshifting abilities that can be used by eating jelly beans. The two will need to defeat enemies and solve puzzles to reach Blobolonia and dethrone the tyrannical Emperor who’s set on world domination. The story is told through hand-drawn and animated illustrations.

The Tartarus Key

The atmospheric horror adventure game The Tartarus Key is in the works for Switch, publisher Armor Games Studios and developer Vertical Reach confirmed today. It will launch in 2022.

The Tartarus Key, which is inspired by classic thrillers like Alone In The Dark, has players taking on the role of Alex Young, a young woman who awakens to find herself locked inside a sprawling manor, seemingly under constant observation by a network of cameras. Alex later learns that she’s not the only one being held captive. The only guide she’ll have is an unknown voice on the other end of a portable radio. Don’t expect any jump scares, but the game promises that  “there will be plenty to keep players on their toes.”

At TGS 2021 today, Pupuya Games and SimonCreative shared the latest on the 3D action shooting game Little Witch Nobeta. A new release window of 2022 has been confirmed. Justdan International will be handling the Switch port.

Outside of the release window news, Pupuya Games unveiled a new Soul Doll, Hololive collaboration, and the game’s voice cast. Along with Japanese audio, the game will have English, Japanese, and Traditional Chinese text.
