Lelu is the game being developed by jamierowan where you step into the shoes of Lelu – a small yet mighty clockwork toy that has become self-aware and has developed a taste for freedom in the labyrinthian toy factory. That's the setup we have here for this story-driven exploration game where action is replaced by character motivations.
Lelu will be released on Xbox Series consoles, the Switch 2 handheld, and PC (Steam). This multi-platform release is significant as it makes sure that both home console gamers and handheld device gamers have access to this game. Also, it speaks to the fact that the same development approach is being taken with regards to the monochromatic game visual style and it'll be available at the same time for all these different systems.
Super Rare Originals and Electronic Sheep Games are the publishers for this game. As we're getting invited to get the gears in motion for a captivating adventure – per game description. This partnership between the two publishers for this game is likely helping out with regards to the distribution/marketing for this release to hit the January timeframe.
