Found in the same NYANDIES video that Owlboy for Switch was found in (thanks James Scott!).

Looks interesting. A hell of a lot better than Has-Been Heroes IMO...

This is also coming to PS4, XBO, and PC, so it's a current-gen port.

This is exactly what I was saying in the last thread! The link you posted says

It’s currently being developed for PC, PS4 and Xbox One and is slated for a 2017 release.

It's bizarre there are so many "secret" Switch games Nintendo hasn't announced yet or allowed devs to announce

I'm guessing all of these titles that just now showed up in a random NCL video will get announced before or at E3. For whatever reason, for at least a few years now, Nintendo or third parties like to have Nintendo announcements operate on their own schedule.

Saw some beam-crossing in there, I wonder how similar to Magicka this game will be. The more the better imo

Bitsummit is this weekend.

Bitsummit is this weekend.

Ah, that makes sense. That's a Japanese event, right? I guess other regions might put out an indie reel to talk about these games to their audiences soon.

NCL had a (very) short announcement segment of this game in their Cat Mario Show (whatever that's called in Japanese) "Nyandies Special", just before Bitsummit.

There will probably be another Nindies Direct either at E3 or shortly afterwards. They need to cover the schedule for the second half of the year.

Looks great - hope they can support local coop via Joycons.

This is also coming to PS4, XBO, and PC, so it's a current-gen port.

Or just a Multiplattform game developed for multiple systems.

Considering it's Bit Summit soon, I would guess they wanted to announce it on their terms before showcasing everything in Japan.

Day 1!

*watch the videos*

My wallet is really starting to hate the Switch ;_;


Wonder if it's playable with single Joy Cons?

 

[Luigiv]

Haven't heard of this of this game until now but it looks really good. Definitely on my radar now. Not really shocking to see it announced for Switch given it's Frozenbyte.

 

[wrowa]

They were becoming one of my favorite devs with the Trine series. Heard 3 wasn't good and has been heroes wasn't for me. This has me interested.

Frozenbyte can't catch a break lately. With Trine 3, Shadwen and Has-Been Heroes they released three disappointments right after another. Here's hoping this will be their much needed return to form.

 

[Penguin]

Game looks great

Has online co-op

all I need is a date and price

 

[GDGF]

This looks like Gauntlet.

I said way back in the Switch announcement trailer I wanted Gauntlet for this system.

It is sold.

 

[moltonasty]

Interesting. Also of note, is that the first footage of Rime for Switch in the beginning? Looking kinda rough compared to all the footage we've seen on that game so far. The aliasing on the character models is serious.

 

[Oregano]

Now this is what I'm talking about. I skipped Has Been Heroes but I'm in for this.

 

[RedBoot]

Man, Frozenbyte really likes wizards.

I liked Has-Been Heroes (and Trine, of course), so I'm up for this. Hope it gets a physical release too.

 

[Cerium]

Does anyone know what engine this runs on? The footage looks good.

 

[JustenP88]

This looks like a must-own. Spent way too much time co-oping Gauntlet Legends with friends to not hop on this day one.

 

[EDarkness]

This looks like something I could play with my wife. We really enjoyed Baldur's Gate on the PS2 back in the day and this could be in the same vein as that. Hopefully we'll get more information fairly soon.

Probably on Frozenbyte's engine they used for Trine 2/3.

It looks more like a twin stick shooter than a hack n slash.

Frozenbyte has it's own proprietary tech.

Yeah. That's perfectly fine. Just something to run around shooting things with the wife.
