Re:Legend Kickstarter adds Switch stretch goal
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 5 Comments
Re:Legend is already a success for Magnus Games. After taking the project to Kickstarter yesterday, the team has received full funding having raised over $50,000.
Magnus is setting its sights on stretch goals next. Switch is present, which will require $250,000 to be raised.
That may seem like a lot, but Re:Legend did manage to generate that aforementioned $50,000 in just a single day. The campaign has around a month before it ends, so the target is certainly possible.
Here’s an overview of Re:Legend:

Dragon Quest XI introduces reincarnated monsters
Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News, Switch | 1 Comment
Dragon Quest XI will be released in Japan on Friday, but that isn’t stopping Weekly Jump magazine from releasing some new info on the game.
There will be a special type of enemy in the game called reincarnated monsters. As their name implies, they have been reborn and thus look different than their regular counterparts. They might have a different color scheme or other distinguishing features. It’s not all about their appearance though – these monsters are also pretty rare. Hunting them down for special quests given to you by NPCs can net you some great rewards though.

Oceanhorn dev on the Switch: “bright future” despite being underpowered; sequel teased
Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 50 Comments
Oceanhorn was first released on mobile hardware, so it was very flexible game to port for mobile based Nintendo Switch. I see bright future for Nintendo Switch, as it has a support for Unreal Engine 4 for example and we are currently spearheading the mobile development on UE4 with Oceanhorn 2.
It depends on indie developer. Some indie developers don’t care much about saving resources, but it is everything for us as we are developing for mobile first (or parallel development), so our games have been optimized right from the beginning. This way we can add stuff for higher-end platforms later on. Nintendo Switch is already couple of years old hardware (NVIDIA Tegra X1), so latest iOS devices that we use for development are already more powerful than Switch. But developing mobile first helps and Oceanhorn 2 is going to look great on Switch, when the time comes!
