Iconoclasts is a game that took nearly a decade to develop. Konjak started working on the project way back in 2010, and finally saw its initial release on January 23.
Currently, Iconoclasts isn’t available on Nintendo platforms. But that could change in the future. Creator Joakim Sandberg recently told GamerHubTV:

Celeste has sold the most on Switch
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 33 Comments
Celeste is off to a very good start on Switch. The game has sold the most on Nintendo’s console, according to creator Matt Thorson.
Thorson told Destructoid in a new interview:
“The Switch version of Celeste has sold the most, and that’s what we were expecting. We feel like Celeste and the Switch are a perfect fit for each other. We are glad we launched on all consoles though, and we really appreciate the support we’ve seen across the board.”
Thorson hasn’t divulged any specific sales figures for Celeste. But as we’ve seen, it’s topping the Switch eShop charts.

[Review] Super One More Jump
Posted on 6 years ago by Jakob Vujovic(@jakovujo) in Reviews, Switch eShop | 1 Comment
System: Switch (eShop)
Release date: January 25, 2018
Developer: SMG Studio / Premo Games
Publisher: SMG Studio
There’s not a lot to dislike about Super One More Jump. On its surface it looks like a fairly generic Super Meat Boy derivative, but beyond its stout square character, the ease in which you can very quickly die in its short challenge levels – and the instant reset when you do – Super One More Jump shares more with auto-runner mobile games than the intricate fine-tuned play that a Meat Boy demands. It wasn’t a surprise to learn that this is a souped-up version of Premo Games’ One More Jump. As a result itโs mechanically undercooked to be a slightly awkward fit for a dedicated console with a full array of buttons and sticks.
