Crashlands heading to Switch
During a Nindies event at GDC today, Nintendo revealed that Crashlands is making its way to Switch. Developer Butterscotch Shenanigans has not yet shared a release window.
Crashlands is another title joining Switch thanks to its new support for GameMaker Studio 2. The engine will be adding proper Switch support this summer.
Crashlands is a story-driven crafting action RPG. We have more information plus a trailer below.
Become Flux Dabes, a galactic trucker whose latest shipment gets derailed by a chin-strapped alien menace named Hewgodooko, leaving you stranded on an alien planet. As you hustle to retrieve your packages you’ll become enmeshed in a nefarious plot of world domination, which will require all of your wits and both of your glutes to overcome. Learn recipes from the local sentient life, make new friends, uncover ancient secrets and deadly bosses, tame everything and build yourself a home-away-from-home as you learn to thrive on planet Woanope.
