Modular synthesisers and video games combined? Absolutely intriguing! That clever LotL (Look Mum No Computer) has now created their own computer game.

In the realm of video games, a unique fusion of music, mayhem, and modular synthesizers has emerged. The game, titled Look Mum No Computer, is a twin-stick shooter action-RPG that pays homage to the YouTube channel and persona of Sam Battle, known as Look Mum No Computer.

Developed in collaboration with German developers The Bitfather and published by Headup, Look Mum No Computer is now available on PC, Mac, or Linux, and even on Steam.

At its core, Look Mum No Computer is a game about crafting and upgrading unique synthesizer modules that serve as both weapons and instruments in the game’s dynamic soundtrack. Players delve into quirky pixel-art worlds, battle rogue machines, complete quests, and defeat bosses in the fictional universe of Soldersworth.

The game integrates an interactive music system where synthesizer modules, inspired by Sam Battle’s real-life designs, can be collected, crafted, and experimented with to form the evolving soundtrack. One of the modules even pays homage to his infamous flamethrower organ.

Look Mum No Computer strikes a perfect balance between shooter action and RPG exploration, blending creative chaos and electronic music culture. Players control Sam and his synthesizer sidekick Kosmo, as they navigate malfunctioning machines, fighting internal threats through music-based combat.

This game is a unique fusion of electronic music culture, DIY modular synthesizer crafting, and engaging gameplay, directly inspired by the themes and aesthetic of the Look Mum No Computer YouTube channel and Sam Battle’s synthesizer work.

For a limited time, Look Mum No Computer is available at a discount of 20%, priced at £11.99, until 7 August. One enthusiastic reviewer has already expressed excitement for the game, stating "OMG, modular synthesizers and video games? Sign. Me. Up."
