With the growing popularity of Switch, developers all across the industry are seeing just how big of an impact Nintendo’s newest console is having on the market. As a result, the system has received an influx of not only third-party developed games, but also a barrage of creative and imaginative indie titles. One such title, Subsurface Circular, is now making the jump to the Switch after its initial release in August 2017. Developed by Mike Bithell Games, the same developer responsible for Thomas Was Alone, Subsurface Circular takes an interesting approach to one of the earliest video games genres ever created: the text-based adventure.

Kaet Must Die! is making its initial debut on Steam in April. After that, developer Strength in Numbers Studios will be turning its attention to consoles, including a Switch version.

Players can expect a very challenging horror game from Kaet Must Die!, as you’ll die plenty of times. The end goal is to explore hostile environments with enemies who can kill you in a single blow, solve puzzles, and more.

Here’s some additional information and a trailer for Kaet Must Die!:

We have more information and a trailer for Pixel Noir below.

Today, FDG Entertainment issued a new update for Oceanhorn. Version 1.0.1 is now available.

Several months ago, Wargroove developer Chucklefish announced a new project called Spellbound. Although the team is focusing on PC currently, it sounds like Switch could be a very realistic target platform. “We’re all massive fans of the Switch at Chucklefish, and would ideally see all of our major projects hitting the platform in the future,” studio founder Finn Brice told Redbull.

Spellbound is a “wizard-school sim” RPG inspired by the likes of Harry Potter, Harvest Moon, Stardew Valley, and even Zelda for its combat. Brice says the game “revolves around your path through school, the relationships you build, and your mastery of the several schools of magic at your disposal.” You’ll build up your magical proficiency by taking on school projects like growing magical crops and creatures in herbology, meeting and befriending different characters, taking on quests, participating in dating and side activities, and more.
