Lose Ctrl Build 18103589

Lose Ctrl is the debut title from Berlin-based studio Play From Your Heart UG, led by award-winning CEO Martin J. Apple. From the moment you launch it, you’re plunged into a world where nothing behaves as you expect. Left suddenly becomes right, up turns into down, and your trusty keyboard and mouse seem downright uncooperative. This isn’t mere gimmickry—it’s an existential, audiovisual rollercoaster with a meta-level narrative that constantly questions reality itself.

In the single-player campaign you follow Billy, an ordinary office worker whose life of spreadsheets and grocery runs takes a bizarre turn. As Billy’s routine unravels, so do your controls. Every button press could send you careening off course, but that’s half the fun. You’ll laugh, you’ll rage-quit, and you’ll marvel at how cleverly the game twists your assumptions—even during the tutorial.

Where Lose Ctrl really shines is its groundbreaking couch co-op for up to five players. Forget raw skill—here the true challenge is figuring out how to play. Race through chaotic obstacle courses in vehicles you’ve never learned to drive. Take on Segway Golf and hope your muscle memory doesn’t betray you. Attempt Segway Basketball, because adding balancing mayhem to hoops sounds like a brilliant idea…until you try it. And then there’s Fall Folks, a mode where falling is wildly discouraged yet nearly unavoidable. No one starts with an advantage, which makes every match an uproarious free-for-all.

Lose Ctrl refuses to be predictable or pigeonholed. It blends absurd humor, experimental design and a touch of philosophical musing into a single package. Under Martin Apple’s supervision, the game maintains high production values and a cohesive vision—even when it’s bent out of shape. Lose Ctrl is available for download now, so gather your friends, brace yourselves for chaos, and prepare to lose control.
