Julius Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 Looks like Little Nightmares might be coming to Switch...
Ganepark32 Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 Little Nightmares is a fantastic game so it is coming to Switch is only good news as more people will get a chance to play it. If it does, hopefully it'll have all the DLC and be the complete edition as they've been small bit sized extra stories that have really helped to build the world in that game. The little tease they did on the Playstation Blog about the possibility of a sequel has me itching for more but I'd happily double dip for it again as I enjoyed it a lot
Julius Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Destructoid gave Mulaka an 8/10, summarising that the game is an “impressive effort with a few noticeable problems holding it back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.” They specifically praise the game’s art style and music, and say that the game might just be what you’re looking for if you have an Okami-shaped itch to scratch. Their full review of the game can be found here.
Julius Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Moonlighter will be receiving a physical release when the game launches in May (which has been confirmed by the game’s publisher, Merge Games). In case you need a quick reminder about the game, here’s its Switch announcement trailer. 1
Hero-of-Time Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 In for the physical version, although I'm not sure which platform I'll be buying it on.
drahkon Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Ohhh, totally forgot about that. Might be one of the few games I pay full price for this year.
Hero-of-Time Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 I played through this on the PS4 at the start of the year and thought it was a fantastic experience. I certainly recommend Switch owners give it a go, provided that the port is good.

Besides, it has a Limited Run release coming out, so i'd probably get the retail version if I did ever pick it up.

Ronnie Posted March 12, 2018 Author Posted March 12, 2018 I'm waiting for the Swords of Ditto to be announced as coming to Switch. IGN asked the devs at last year's E3 (the now standard "is it coming to Switch?" question indies seem to get asked every two minutes). They said because it was made in GameMaker, it had to be PS4 and PC only. BUT, Switch now supports GameMaker as of a week or so, so fingers crossed...
Ronnie Posted March 14, 2018 Author Posted March 14, 2018 (edited) Also this looks great. I played it at EGX... Edited March 14, 2018 by Ronnie
Hero-of-Time Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Absolutely amazing and heart warming story. No matter what you may think of the Switch there is no denying the positive effect it has had on indie developers. It is literally saving indie studios. 2
Glen-i Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Yeah, it's amazing how well Ninty fans have taken to indies. Most of them totally deserve it, the sheer ease of picking up a game and playing it, not to mention Nintendo putting a spotlight on these games has really helped to make these smaller titles thrive. And I've gotta say, there's more than a few games I'm interested in. And my game of the year last year was an indie title.
DazzeL Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 That Planet Alpha look gorgeous. I much prefer indy games going with interesting graphics styles rather than yet more pixel art. I hope the game is decent too.
S.C.G Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Last Day of June Well, that happened! I played a game AND reviewed it in 24 hours. Also... there don't seem to be any other reviews for the Switch version online... yet. Usually I'd be worried about an embargo being broken, but the game came out yesterday so... ...N-Europe exclusive! (probably for all of 5 minutes) Enjoy! 4 1

MindFreak Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 Nice. I've heard good things about that. Wonder why it wasn't in the Nindies presentation...?
killthenet Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 Yeah, weird that it wasn't part of the Nindies showcase. Nidhogg 2 has just been announced for Switch too, maybe they don't have any footage of the Switch versions to show yet? I think GDC is going on at the moment so we might get a few more announcements trickling out over the next few days.
drahkon Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 Hyper Light Drifter is supposed to be tough as nails. So all you casual newbs should stay clear. Especially @Hero-of-Time. Aaaanyway. Nice to see more and more indies coming to the Switch, even though it's mostly older ones.
killthenet Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 Turns out Hyperlight Drifter, Nidhogg and Crashlands (also just announced) are all made in Game Maker which only just introduced Switch support so it would make sense that neither game had enough footage to show in the showcase. 1
Ganepark32 Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 Hells yeah on Hyper Light Drifter, one of my favourite indie games of the last few years. Love the visual style, the soundtrack is beautifully eery and the world of the game is steeped in mythology for those willing to read up on it and the gameplay is brilliant. Simple but difficult to master. I'm in for a second purchase of it as it's a fantastic game, though I'd love it even more if they did a physical release of it. Hopefully they do. Really hope they take the IP forward with another game in that world as it's calling out for it.
