Headup and The Bitfather have officially confirmed that Look Mum No Computer, their innovative twin-stick shooter action RPG, will launch on the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop on January 22, 2026.
This announcement marks an exciting milestone for fans of both music-driven gameplay and action RPGs on Nintendo's popular hardware platform. Set in the spirited, pixel-art universe of Soldersworth, Look Mum No Computer invites players to accompany Sam and his trusty sidekick, Kosmo the Synthesiser, as they embark on a high-octane adventure.
Together, they must repair malfunctioning machines from the inside, restoring order using an inventive blend of music-based attacks and DIY-crafted weaponized synth modules.
Players are challenged to employ a combination of fast-paced combat and creative problem-solving, delivering a one-of-a-kind journey where every battle pulses in rhythm with the soundtrack. Developed in close collaboration with renowned tech and music creator Sam Battle—known widely as Look Mum No Computer—the game merges explosive twin-stick action with a dynamic, interactive music-making experience.
Headup and The Bitfather have highlighted several core features that set Look Mum No Computer apart from conventional action RPG titles: Interactive Music Creation: Players can craft, upgrade, and customize synthesiser modules that not only function as weapons but also serve as instruments for the in-game soundtrack.
This grants each playthrough a personalized remix of Look Mum No Computer's original electronic music. Robust DIY Crafting System: Fans of Sam Battle's signature hardware hacks will appreciate the ability to gather electronic parts and assemble new synth modules, including unique devices like the flamethrower module—a playful homage to the inventor’s iconic flamethrower organ. Vibrant, Quirky Worlds: Explore a variety of imaginative machine-inhabited landscapes brought to life with vibrant pixel art.
Players will encounter eccentric adversaries such as acid-spitting capacitors and undead broccoli, undertake daring quests, and face challenging boss battles. High-Energy Twin-Stick Combat: Using real-time twin-stick controls, players must juggle equipment slots and energy management to power both their arsenal and their evolving compositions, creating a seamless blend of mechanics and music. For both music lovers and gaming enthusiasts, Look Mum No Computer promises an experience that bridges retro gaming charm, innovative music integration, and the DIY creativity of its namesake creator. Look Mum No Computer is set for a worldwide digital release on the Nintendo Switch eShop on January 22, 2026.
Fans can look forward to exploring the unique, beat-driven world of Soldersworth as they take control of Sam and Kosmo in this genre-blending adventure.
