Nintendo Switch or PC?
Hi, I'm about to get this game, apart from the platform are there any significant changes content-wise and also graphic-wise? In terms of texture quality, effects quality, smoothness, etc.

I like the Switch for the portability and convenience but the game looks really awesome and I don't really want to miss out on graphics.

Thanks!

Hey, happy to answer this.

The two versions of the game are very similar apart from the inherent platform differences. There are no content differences. There are slight platform-specific differences, such as how there are no Achievements on the Switch version (since there is no equivalent system on the Switch).

The Switch version is at 720p resolution for maximum performance on that platform. You should experience smooth frame rates other than some exceptional cases. If you have an older PC rig, the Switch version may run better than PC. It should look crisp on Switch and we did our best to make sure the text was clear and stuff like that.

Our goal is for each version to be the best version, if that makes any sense. Hopefully you'll feel like you can't go wrong either way and it's just a matter of where you'd prefer to play it more.

Yes, thank you for making a great version for the Switch. After buying several bad ports on the Switch I was going to hold out on purchasing this, but I had faith in you as a developer and I was not let down. The game runs great and it's nice to be playing this handheld after so many hours on the PC. Thanks again.

Thanks for that, I'll grab the Switch version! This game looks great and thanks for all your hard work!
