Loop8: Summer Of Gods

Character's moods and reactions vary based on when in the story they are addressed by the player. The game takes place in the fictional Japanese town of Ashihara in 1983 in an alternate reality where humanity is fighting for its survival against demons called Kegai. He is the sole survivor, and after it, becomes gifted with the special ability "demon sight", the ability to reset events and try them again through time travel. Nini finds refuge in Ashihara in August, and spends his time making connections in the town in efforts to find the Kegai before they destroy Ashihara as well. The game's title of Loop8 refers to its premise, as Nini continually relives his time in the month of August to find and eliminate the Kegai. Loop8 was first announced for the Nintendo Switch in a Japanese Nintendo Direct in February 2022. The game is being developed by Sieg Games and published by XSeed Games and Marvelous Entertainment. The game's designer and scenario writer, Yuri Shibamura, went to great lengths to capture the nostalgic and iconic aspects of Japan and its culture, particularly from the 1980s.
