Curator Notes

Bye Sweet Carole is a hand-drawn horror puzzle-platformer from Little Sewing Machine, the Italian studio of Remothered creator Chris Darril, styled after classic animated film. In early-1900s England, Lana Benton searches the Bunny Hall orphanage and the kingdom of Corolla for her missing friend Carole Simmons, able to take the form of a rabbit to escape what hunts her. Maximum Entertainment released it on October 9, 2025, across platforms; the North American Switch physical edition followed on October 21, 2025.

Preservation Notes

Access Hardware: Nintendo Switch; compatible Nintendo Switch family hardware
Original Hardware: Nintendo Switch
Playback Compatibility: Nintendo Switch software is region-free. The retained game card is the primary access copy and runs on any Nintendo Switch console.
Preservation Concerns: Game cards are flash media; long-term charge retention, contact wear, and loss of the small card from its case are the principal risks. Any content delivered as an eShop download or update depends on Nintendo’s servers and is not preserved by the card alone.
Edition History: Released October 9, 2025 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The North American Switch physical edition (HAC-P-BQ5ZA) released October 21, 2025, with a code sheet for the digital soundtrack and art book.
Access Status: Distributed at retail by Maximum Entertainment, with a digital edition on the Nintendo eShop.
