Lou’s Lagoon, a new exploration and crafting game, has launched today on Steam. Players fly a customisable seaplane around the tropical Limbo archipelago, searching for their missing Uncle Lou while assisting island communities and restoring damaged areas.

The game centres on gathering scrap, plants and wildlife materials with a multi-tool called the Swirler, then using them to repair buildings and craft items. Its gameplay has been compared to a less action-focused blend of Jak and Daxter and Ratchet & Clank, though the article notes uncertainty about how the game handles resource extraction alongside its community-focused themes.
