This week, Matt Makes Games published its newest title Celeste, and it’s out now on Switch. But the developer had also previously announced that its last game TowerFall would also be released on the system. Although there hasn’t been much news to share, it hasn’t been cancelled.

Developer Matt Thorson provided the following update to IGN:

“Our plan was always to wrap up Celeste before working on the Switch TowerFall edition. Soon we’ll be freed up to bring that over! We know a lot of fans are eager to play TowerFall on the Switch, and I’m excited to see it on there myself. But it’s more important for us to move forward with Celeste and put all our energy into making it as good as possible before revisiting TowerFall again. We think fans of TowerFall will be surprised at how much we’ve improved and pushed ourselves to explore new creative territory in Celeste.”

TowerFall is 2D combat game with archers that bounce around arenas as they try to one-hit kill each other. We’ve included a trailer for it below.

Update (1/26): We’ve confirmed with Dufgames that the listing is accurate. Black Hole will release on February 6.

Original (1/25): Black Hole was originally intended for release on Switch in January, but it looks like the release window could be slipping just slightly. Currently, the European eShop has it down for February 6. The North American launch should be taking place around the same time.

Black Hole is an arcade-style twin-stick shooter set in space. The game has 40 levels spread across four worlds, three upgradeable ships, HD Rumble support, speedrun and colorblind modes, and leaderboards. Support is also included for touch controls, motion controls, and IR controls.
