Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 10 Comments
Unity 5.6 was released yesterday. Among various features, the engine now has native support for Switch.
It’s true that Unity-built games are already out on Switch. Nintendo published Snipperclips for the system’s launch, while Konami sent out Super Bomberman R. With official support though, all developers now have the opportunity to easily release titles they’ve created in Unity on Switch.
Nintendo made it a mission to ensure that Switch provided support for developer tools from the get-go. Unlike Wii U for instance, Switch has official Unreal Engine 4 support from Epic Games.

Zelda: Breath of the Wild has realistic puddles that form and dissipate from weather cycle
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 41 Comments
Zelda: Breath of the Wild has a ton of interesting little touches and details that players may not notice. All of the game’s functions interact in many different ways that affect the world.
This past week, one player shared a discovery regarding the game’s weather cycle. Four screenshots in the same area were taken showing how they evolved over time. As it was raining, a sizable pond form. Then as the sun started to come out, it shrank, and continued to do so across the remaining images. It’s pretty amazing and not something that many others were aware of before.
Here’s a look at the weather cycle in action and a puddle that forms / dissipates:
