The new Bandai Namco games Boomeroad, Nottolot, Doronko Wanko are now available on Steam for free. The games were released as part of the company’s 2023 new recruits training project.
Boomeroad is an action-adventure game where players can create sliding rails to advance through levels by using a boomerang. Nottolot is an action game in which players use the hacking abilities of protagonist Rolly to control enemies and traverse through a robot production factory with the goal of escaping. Doronko Wanko is the third game and it sees players control an adorable Pomeranian with the goal of creating the biggest mess possible in their owner’s house.
All three titles were developed throughout 2023 by Bandai Namco’s indie developer Gyaar Studio in collaboration with publisher Phoenixx Inc, during the limited development period as part of the training for new recruits at Bandai Namco Studios. Bandai Namco expects many people to play the three new games, and hopes that the feedback from these titles will help encourage the young developers and help them in their careers.
During the previous 2022 program, the company released Goonect, Hook and Kaiju, Endrays, Excycle, and Shigeru Planet for Steam exclusively in Japan. Due to the success of last year’s program, the three new titles have released worldwide. It is unknown if Bandai Namco and Phoenixx Inc plan to release the aforementioned titles outside of Japan.
Doronko Wanko, Nottolot, and Boomeroad are immediately available for free on Windows PC via Steam.
