Two Tribes went over everything in a new blog post yesterday. You can read the studio’s thoughts below to get a good idea as to just how much effort went into the Switch version.

Moonlighter

Moonlighter was announced for Switch last year. We haven’t heard too much about the game in recent months, but it sounds like it isn’t too far off.

Digital Sun Games wrote in a new Kickstarter update this week:

Final debugging of console ports. The game is already playable from beginning to end on Xbox One, PS4 and almost there on Nintendo Switch, but it still needs some more work before starting the certification process. This is the major point pending, it’s a lot of work, but we are very close to finish and things are looking good.

Here’s an overview and trailer for Moonlighter in case you missed our previous coverage:
