We have also started to work on the Backers rewards. The first item in production is, The Narita Boy Comic book, a story about the Creator's life 35 years after the Narita Boy success.
Work in progress :)
This spring we will be working on the Art Book and the Encyclopedia of the Digital Kingdom.
We are very happy with the demo reviews and the gamer's feedback on the game and we are thrilled that the game is going to be released. We are very grateful to Team 17 and, again, to all of you for your kind support.

Saving the World - Narita Boy Karaoke #SavingTheArcadeWorld
We are super happy with the feedback that we are getting from the demo and the announcement trailer. Gamers worldwide are connecting with the Trichroma, wielding the Techno-Sword and starting to be ready to liberate the Digital Kingdom from the Stallion invasion!
To celebrate our Narita Boy announcement, we're creating a video of YOU - the fans - singing/lip syncing along to 'Saving the World' - the first released track from the official Narita Boy soundtrack!
It's Karaoke time in the Digital Kingdom! What's better than a music video featuring our amazing community and long-term backers?! Analogue vibes from the soundtrack are spreading globally, and we would be grateful if you could participate in this movement.

What do you need to do?
Submit your video URL in this form by 25th February to be immortalised within the official karaoke video! http://bit.ly/NaritaBoySTW
We would love to star you in the upcoming Saving the World video. Last week we posted a YouTube video with the song's lyrics, and we'd love for you to record yourself singing along.
Our dream is to have our backers unite under the #SavingTheArcadeWorld banner by singing along to Save the World. Be creative, be crazy, be retro, be 80s, be Narita Boy or Girl or whatever you want to be. Pump up the volume and let the Narita vibes merge with your code.
For us, this video is a way to acknowledge your generosity, support a good cause and to thank you once again for making this game possible.
May the trichrome flow through your veins and inspire your creativity!

Narita Boy announcement with Team 17

Dear Backers!
Are you hearing that humming?
Are you feeling a tingling in the palms of your hands?
Are you relishing in post-fever cosmovision dreams?
So have we! We are with you… so close… Together we are gonna rise to the Digital Kingdom!
Today we are thrilled to announce that we are working closely with Team17 who are equally excited to wield the Techno-sword with us. With their help, we can share the Digital Kingdom with so many more of our brothers and sisters around the world and bring the Trichroma to a home near you!
We also want to invite you all to play a demo of Narita Boy, which is available right now for a limited time during this week’s Steam Festival. Yup! That’s right, you have until the 9th February to get your hands on the first ever public build. Psst, not even influencers or press have seen this demo!
One last thing we’d like to share, and this one comes from a deep-routed tie to our development of Narita Boy over the past years. If it wasn’t for the arcade machines back in the glory days of the 80s then it’s likely that games wouldn’t be the same as they are today, if in existence at all.
We really do hope that you enjoy our new trailer, our ‘byte-sized’ demo, and our guarantee to deliver you all to the Digital Kingdom later this spring.
Thanks again and keep connected. There is more to come!
May the trichroma shine upon your way,
The Studio Koba Team
P.S. If you record yourself singing to this karaoke track
