Hello everyone,

On February 26th (Tue.), Touhou Luna Nights - which was available on Early Access - was updated to Ver. 1.0! To commemorate this milestone update, we're releasing a bundle of PLAYISM's popular Metroidvania titles.

■PLAYISM Metroidvania_bundle

We hope you enjoy this batch of beloved Metroidvania titles, proudly brought to you by PLAYISM. Each one is a true gem, painstakingly crafted and tailored for players of all kinds, from total beginners to action game veterans to straight-up masochists. If you're a Metroidvania fan, then you'll love each and every title in this lineup.

The latest title from Team Ladybug, developers of a wide variety of action games. Take on the role of maid "Sakuya Izayoi", who possesses the power to control time and who has been sent against her will to a strange, mysterious world by her mistress, "Remilia"... Touhou Luna Nights features beautifully detailed sprite animation and the "grazing" system - specially tweaked for action games - for which the "Touhou Project" is known.





Momodora: Reverie Under The Moonlight is the fourth installment in the beloved Momodora series of 2D platformers. Unleash ravaging combos against a variety of formidable monsters and deftly dodge your way through a cursed land to seek audience with the Queen and dispel the evil that threatens all life.

LA-MULANA is an “Archaeological Ruin Exploration Action Game,” bringing the classic appeal of adventure with the punishing difficulty of retro-inspired gaming. Search inside ancient ruins, seeking out the “Secret Treasure of Life” – which sleeps in the sprawling ruins of “LA-MULANA” and is said to be the beginning of all civilization. Unfortunately, priceless artifacts very rarely give themselves up easily.

The long-awaited sequel to La-Mulana, La-Mulana 2 follows Lumisa Kosugi as she explores the ancient ruins of La-Mulana. Desperate to find the cause of the recent slew of monsters appearing from the ruins, Lumisa discovers the "other" La-Mulana: the ruins known as Eg-Lana.

The year is coming to a close once again.
Oh yeah - we totally released La-Mulana 2 this year. I barely even know what's going on anymore.

Anyway, thanks so much to all the backers for all of your patience! Has everyone managed to clear the game already?
We haven't been putting up any of these updates for awhile now, as we've been super busy with all the game updates taking up our time up till now and most of our time now being taken up by porting work.
Even being built with Unity, unfortunately we can't simply just stick the game onto consoles as-is and expect it to function properly. We have to search out all the spots we need to optimize, and fix them up ourselves. If, during this process, we're able to lighten the game even further, we may add those changes into the PC version as well.

But the thing everyone is likely most interested in would be the rewards.
This is sort of our own problem, but I live in Japan. And most of our backers don't.
If we don't set everything up so that all of the rewards - of which there are a lot - can be mailed out at once, things would get extremely hairy. Sendable sizes alone are a big issue, and even if we wanted to, we wouldn't be able to do something like put together a super awesome artbook and mail it out to everyone.
So anyway, the rewards will all be sent out once they're all ready to go, which should hopefully be sometime around the time the console version is released.
For now, I'm gonna continue doing my part and working on what I can.

This year was marked largely by our desperate and frenzied efforts to get the game out, but next year you'll be able to play the game on consoles. Next year is the real big show for La-Mulana 2.
Happy New Year!
