The 2D bits play like this mostly. I haven't followed the game intensely but I haven't seen those gameplay segments before, hence being surprised by them. I've only seen the 2D sidescrolling bits before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 6 hours ago, Julius said: Next month has filled out quite nicely by the looks of things: Astro Bot, this, Zelda, some other titles like Space Marine 2, UFO 50...okay it's filled out a good bit more than I thought it had when I started typing that list. The next couple of months is looking pretty stacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksnowman Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 When I'm not thinking this is a Tiny Toons game I have it mixed up with RPG Time: The Legend of Wright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dcubed Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 That level of performance is exceptionally good. Gives me hope that 60FPS is not off the table for Switch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julius Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Devolver have released a special video for the game revealing that it will be getting fully localised in 11 languages, including a dub in each of those languages for the game's narrator! This is so cool! They even listed the VAs and credited those who worked on the localisations in the video description In other news, the physical edition for the game had pre-orders go live yesterday, which are aiming for a 21st February 2025 release date: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Might be tempted to get the special edition depending on the art book. If there's actual notes, decisions etc I'd be interested but if it was just a series of screenshots and renders not so much. Shame there's no Italian, could have claimed it as revision.

It's Brazillian Portuguese 😐 It's still cool (the voice actor sounds really good, actually), but man, my hopes got way up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Told ya, @Dcubed. The Europe in N-Europe stands for "European Portuguese is what Jonnas wants" Rolls right off the tongue! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drahkon Posted yesterday at 07:11 AM Share Posted yesterday at 07:11 AM Getting really excited about this one And it'll release at 6pm tomorrow Might actually not get to play this before Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen-i Posted yesterday at 07:39 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 07:39 AM I'm quite sick now. Might not be able to make the trip home today like planned. Which means, despite releasing on a Tuesday, I might be able to play this day 1. Silver linings, y'know? Nothing like a good bedtime story to soothe a dodgy tummy.

Hero-of-Time Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago A warning for those planning on playing it on their Steam Deck. Quote It's also plagued by technical issues. The frame rate drops alarmingly when fighting multiple enemies, the game freezes randomly, and some levels straight up don't work on Steam Deck. The Plucky Squire never claims to be Deck Verified, but it's a game perfect for Valve's portable and it's unfortunate that the developers couldn't make it work in time for release. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Plucky Squire never claims to be Deck Verified, but it's a game perfect for Valve's portable and it's unfortunate that the developers couldn't make it work in time for release. I'm a bit confused by this bit...because checking Steam, it is Steam Deck verified? And we've known for the better part of a week that it's going to be Steam Deck verified (source: Destructoid). My question is, were they playing it back when it was unverified? Or did they just somehow accidentally type that? Weird. [EDIT: there's also this page on Steam where they even explicitly highlight the fact that the game is indeed verified for Steam Deck] This seems like another perspective which is maybe a bit more balanced and fleshed out, they do call out several issues but a mostly consistent 30fps in a certain mode with some very noticeable frame rate drops at fixed points. It also just doesn't sound like the other person tweaked their settings when they hit these rough spots, which is a bit odd, considering, well, that's the benefit of a PC handheld? Sounds very disappointing either way, imagine it'll get patched but this does seem like it would have been the perfect type of game for the Steam Deck.
