The Highly-Anticipated Lumo to Launch on May 24

The wait is nearly over for one of the most highly anticipated indie games of 2016. Rising Star Games, a video game publisher renowned for bringing unique and diverse games to players everywhere, announced today that Lumo will be launching on PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, PC, Mac and Linux on May 24, with versions for PlayStation®Vita handheld entertainment system, and Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, to follow in June.

From the inspired mind of Gareth Noyce, lead designer and founder at Triple Eh? Ltd., Lumo is a modern take on the classic isometric-styled platform adventures that were highly popular in the formative golden years of video gaming. Now a new gaming generation will be amazed.

If it has sharp edges and spews fire, it's probably something to avoid in Lumo.

A contemporary take on the isometric platform genre, Lumo can be enjoyed by anyone looking for an absorbing, challenging, and rewarding adventure. For those who lived through the golden age of video games – the ‘80s and early ‘90s – or know about the games and culture from that time, there are layer upon layer of nods and winks to be discovered and relished in Lumo. With over 400 rooms across four distinct zones, six hidden mini-games and all kinds of wonders to uncover, Lumo is a true voyage of discovery.

Lumo will be available May 24 on PlayStation®4 system, PC, Mac and Linux, and in June on Xbox One and PlayStation®Vita system. Lumo features Cross-Save functionality between PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®Vita systems.

I've been an avid gamer since I stumbled upon ZORK running in my local Radio Shack in 1980. Ten years later I was working for Sierra Online. Since then I've owned nearly every game system and most of the games to go with them. Not sure if 40+ years of gaming qualifies me to write reviews, but I do it anyway.
