Indivisible dev on the Switch version, update for backers
It was announced today that Indivisible will be landing on Switch. Alongside the news, a blog post was published covering the new version and an update for backers.
First, here’s the lowdown on the Switch version specifically:
The Nintendo Switch version of Indivisible will launch simultaneously with the other releases in 2018!
Don’t worry, though – in order to make this happen, Lab Zero received additional funding from 505 Games and hired a programmer to help with the port so it doesn’t take away resources or slow down the rest of development.
While we don’t have anything running on Switch hardware yet, the new programmer is already hard at work laying the groundwork for the Switch version. He’s currently porting the game’s renderer to OpenGL, which will also complete much of the port work for the Mac and Linux versions, as well.
We’ll have more information on the Switch version as it develops, but needless to say, we’re very excited.
And if you’re a backer, you’ll want to read up on the following:
“Of course, now that the game is coming to Nintendo Switch, no doubt our illustrious backers are wondering “How do I get the Switch version?”
We have updated BackerKit, and you can now select the Nintendo Switch version on your surveys.
Simply take (or retake) the BackerKit survey you were sent via e-mail, and select Nintendo Switch for your platform of choice. This applies both to the digital version and Physical Collector’s Edition.
Please note that we will not be able to release the Backer Preview build on the Switch, so when that’s available you’ll still need to get that on one of the other available platforms.”
