World of Goo will support local multiplayer on Switch
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 2 Comments
Tomorrow Corporation has slowly been rolling out information about its three re-releases on Switch. World of Goo, Little Inferno, and Human Resource Machine are all targeted for the system’s launch.
Tomorrow Corporation initially confirmed that all three games will feature a new Soundtrack Mode. We later learned that all Switch modes are supported as well.
In a soon-to-be-published interview with Nintendo Everything, Tomorrow Corporation also confirmed that World of Goo will support local multiplayer. That’s thanks to the various play and control options that Switch affords. We were additionally told that the co-op feature is being investigated for the company’s other games.
When World of Goo originally came to Wii, up to four players were able to interact with the game using Wii Remotes. The controllers were used to point and move around different gooballs on the screen. It should play somewhat similarly on Switch, though we may have to wait a bit longer for the finer details.

MixedBag Games wants to bring forma.8, future projects to Switch
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
MixedBag Games is holding true to its promise of delivering forma.8 on Wii U. However, the team has expressed interest in porting the game – and bringing future projects – to Switch.
When asked about sticking with forma.8’s release on Wii U and the possibility of a Switch version by Nintendo Life, MixedBag co-founder Mauro Fanelli said:
“We’ve promised a Wii U version of the game and there were no chances we wouldn’t deliver on that. Especially considering that we had the Wii U version up and running perfectly from 2015.
We can’t wait to work on Switch and we really hope to be able to port forma.8 and all our future projects on it. It’s such a lovely bit of kit!”
You’ll be able to pick up forma.8 on the Wii U eShop very soon – it’s slated for February 28.

Way back in the day, Jaleco created the puzzle game “Soldam” for arcades and the Game Boy. Now on Switch, it seems that it’s being revitalized.
This week’s issue of Famitsu shares first details about Soldam: Declaration of Blooming. It’s coming from nCity Connection.
Soldam: Declaration of Blooming features a new visual design, sounds, and game modes. The core gameplay is the same though, which has players lining up blocks called soldams to remove them. It’s similar to Tetris in some ways.
Three modes will be available:

Young Horses working on non-Octodad related game, hoping to bring it to Switch
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 9 Comments
Young Horses is currently working on a new project, though it won’t have much to do with Octodad. On Twitter, programmer / producer Kevin Geisler mentioned that the team hopes to put it on Switch.
@Q_Mulative @cinemassacres we're working on a non-Octodad related game now which we hope to release on Switch at some point.
— Kevin Geisler 🍔 (@luthyr) February 10, 2017
On another note, it sounds like Young Horses wanted to have Octodad on Switch just like Wii U, but was told by Nintendo that the company is focusing on new games currently. It could still be an option for the indie developer in the future, but we’ll just have to wait and see if it happens.
