A Hat in Time devs now have access to Switch devkits, release not confirmed
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 19 Comments
Gears for Breakfast indicated in May that the indie developer was having issues obtaining Switch development hardware. That situation has now been rectified.
The good news is that both Gears for Breakfast and publisher Humble have access to Switch devkits. The bad news is that, for the time being, no official announcement has been made about a release on Nintendo’s console.
We have the following update from Gears for Breakfast:
Hey everyone, thank you so much for your continued support for A Hat in Time!! A while ago, we asked our fans to make sure to let everyone know how much you care for the game, and you really have! Humble and Gears now have access to Nintendo Switch devkits. Unfortunately we won’t have time to touch the devkits for a while now that we’re SO close to release (October 5th). Additionally, we’d like to remind everyone that there are NO PLANS for additional releases until we make any kind of official announcement.
If we had to guess, A Hat in Time will likely appear on Switch in the future. It just might take some time for that to happen.

Hive Jump finally dated for Wii U in North America
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 7 Comments
The wait for Hive Jump on Wii U is finally over. Graphite Lab announced a release date today, with the game now set for September 28 in North America.
On Wii U, Hive Jump will have the following features:
Mini-Map: The Wii U GamePad mini-map will display the layout of the hive as you explore it, and reveal points of interest like doors and chests. Hazards like lava and spikes are labelled as pink tiles, and destructible walls as orange. Players can switch between this mini-map view, and the next Wii U GamePad feature!
Off-Screen Play: You can play Hive Jump entirely on the Wii U GamePad! When in a hive, simply hit the Select button to switch between seeing the mini-map on the Wii U GamePad and seeing mirrored gameplay on it. It goes almost without saying that the Wii U GamePad also outputs sound through its speakers, or optional headphone jack.
Hive Jump was originally going to cost $19.99 on Wii U. However, it has been revised to $14.99 after some “very long conversations about the best price point”.
More information about Hive Jump can be found at the source link below.
