Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland wishlists opens on Steam
Independent developer Die Soft Games has opened the Steam store page for Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland. The non-linear platformer is planned for release for Windows, Nintendo Switch, and through itch.io.

Guardians of Slumberland is inspired by the story of Winsor McCay’s Little Nemo comics and the gameplay of Capcom's adaptation for the 8-bit NES. Exploration plays a significant role as the pajama-clad child protagonist ventures into Slumberland. Nemo’s toys allow him to fend off enemies and also traverse otherwise inaccessible paths to variously themed zones.

Music for Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland is by Peter Berkman of Anamanaguchi, co-composer on Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game.


From the product page:
Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland takes the retro NES-era platformer gameplay of Capcom and Nintendo favorites and brings it to a vast, non-linear world that has been lovingly hand-animated frame-by-frame. You’ll explore as you collect new ability-granting toys and PJs, discover enchanting lands inspired by Winsor McCay’s Little Nemo comics, and encounter a colorful cast of characters — all through the nostalgic lens of an ‘80s/’90s kid.
