HumaNature Studios announced today that actor and musician Macaulay Culkin was brought on as an executive producer for ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove. Culkin and his team at Bunny Ears Games provided “crucial input to ensure the game is a hella good time” with their “wry wit and penchant for satire”. Culkin also “knew exactly what would – and wouldn’t – appeal to the thousands of Kickstarter backers that funded the sequel.”
ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove is just a couple of days off, as we’ll be seeing it on March 1. A launch is planned on the Switch eShop.

Daemon X Machina early tech analysis
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
A Prototype Missions demo for Daemon X Machina was recently released on the Switch eShop. With that in mind, Digital Foundry has taken a closer look at the download to see how it holds up from a technical perspective.
As far as resolution goes, Daemon X Machina targets 1080p when docked. But as Digital Foundry notes, it’ll more often sit at 1664 x 936. Resolution tends to reach 504p in portable mode, though it can drop to 408p. The lower resolution, along with a lack of anti-aliasing, can make things look a bit pixelated.
