SpiritSphere DX will have a vertical mode
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 1 Comment
Fabraz is publishing SpiritSphere DX on Switch this spring. A mix of tennis and “magical beat down”, the new DX version will ship with new content and features.
One new element being added is a vertical mode. We’ve seen this with a few Switch games in the past. If enabled, you can hold the Switch vertically and use the screen space in a different way.
Fabraz took to Twitter today and showed what the mode looks like:

Morphies Law was announced for Switch during a Nindies Showcase presentation many months ago. Cosmoscope hoped to have it ready sometime this winter, but the shooter is experiencing a delay.
If all goes well, Morphies Law will now be launching this spring. However, it may end up slipping to the summer. The extra time will be used “to give you the best possible version of this crazy playground we’re building.”
For those who haven’t heard of Morphies Law previously, check out the overview and trailer below.
