a shot of shoot'em up, a note of rhythm game and a touch of platformer: the explosive cocktail of LavaLoop!

Three musician-fighters with their own unique skills. Will you choose :
Noë, Champion of combos armed with a cannon-hook-piano-arm,
Manita, the mushroom dancer who only fights hand-to-hand,Â
Or LĂ©onie, the fishier-knight who machine-guns fish in every direction.Â

The fun of rhythm games without the difficulty! Move in rhythm to be rewarded with explosive combos, never penalised. Each enemy moves and attacks to its own score, creating a procedural soundtrack. Learn their moves to counter-attack in style! And an easy mode greatly reduces the rhythmic demands :)

Meticulous art direction for an edgy gameplay inspired by the greatest arcade shooters from Space Invaders to Cuphead.

A mad queen has launched the construction of a giant power station: The Drill. The planet now vibrates to the rhythm of this infernal machine, and one natural disaster follows another...

It all starts in my sketchbooks, where I create a world bursting with punk spirit. I was inspired by the retro-futuristic style found in the works of Jules Vernes and the cartoons of Hayao Miyazaki. The player will travel through 5 worlds with eclectic styles and musics, and discover an ecological fable about the cycle of life and creativity.

I'm a solo developer, creator of Iris and the Giant (Goblinz Studio), as well as a pop-up book illustrator, graphic designer and 2D animator. I started coding about fifteen years ago. For almost two years now, I've been putting everything aside to launch LavaLoop.

LavaLoop is a short, intense gaming experience, a fable about the destruction of nature and the hold technology has on our lives, but also a tribute to artistic and musical creativity.
