Music meets mayhem in this twin-stick shooter action-RPG – Look Mum No Computer is coming soon on GOG!

Craft synthesizer modules to gain new weapons and experiment with the original music of Look Mum No Computer. Meet quirky NPCs, complete quests and battle huge bosses.

Wishlist it now!
Pop!
Sorry, no. The name was already taken.

So unless this is a collaborative project with the musician of the same name, I sense a name change coming.

Which if it is, and (perhaps) appears to be, nice to bury the lede in the announcement and game page.

Perhaps they'll add the comma in. Completely different name.

It does appear to be a collaboration. See the video
on the Steam page.

The video is likely not on GOG because it specifically mentions wishlisting the game on Steam. Perhaps in time GOG will get their own version!

After an in-depth investigation that tested everything I learned from reading Holmes stories, watching Jeremy Brett for days on end and of course all the countless hours of playing adventure games, by which I mean I clicked on the "posts" tab under the very link you provided, I can tell you that it is, indeed, a collaboration with that musician.

You mean they should have said something like "experiment with the original music of Look Mum No Computer."?

Nice work, detective. Your rigorous preparatory work is finally paying dividends.

Wrong as usual; "the name was already taken" is not the thing you seem to think it is. Names in general can't be copyrighted, same with titles. You can only trademark names, which unlike copyright isn't automatic and requires some effort if you want to do so worldwide, and this one does not appear to be trademarked.

"A software project behind the mad genius (positive) of Look Mum No Computer: Look Mum, No Computer"
Well it sure is bright!
