Yeah Rextro's games weren't all that terrible, I would even say I had fun while playing them (and a second time to beat the highscore). Having to beat them a second time was a problem IMO. If my first successful finish of the game beats Rextro's high score, I shouldn't have to go through it again. ...

Glad the game finally came out. Got around to beating it and finding my name in the credits. So that's sweet. Here's my take: 1) The 100 Pagie limit to fight Capital B was scary high at first. But then looking at world totals, that was great! 145 possible Pagies because I forgot about the hub world ...

That was fairly coincidental. December 14th is a surprise to me, I'd have expected at least a month's heads up. Now the real question is when can we expect to get the first DLC. We get the initial Switch version, but when do we get the Switch + first free DLC that backers paid for version? I assume ...

This is over 1 year after the initial promised release date. With no word except "Yeah, it's coming [probably [not]]".

What gives Playtonic?

Another Kickstarter update, another No Date Announcement for Switch. So when does v1.0 of Yooka Laylee launch on Switch, and when does v1.1 with the DLC update launch on Switch, because I want my free DLC upgrade? Or, if they start out with v1.1 or whatever is most recent on other platforms, are we ...

Has Switch version finally been cancelled? No news has come out in months regarding releasing on the Switch, but priority seems to still be on making DLC for the other systems.

Amazingly, it's not going to be Yooka Laylee. But Mario + Rabbids coming August 29, 2017.

I just can't imagine that Playtonic starts development on the Switch version of YL and can get it out the door in 2 months.

Where the hell is the Switch version? You just announced on kickstarter that you're working on a big update for the game... why is the Switch not your priority? What the hell is going on?

And then you're emailing us spoilers for the game? Why? Give us the game first.

For someone that would play the 30 FPS 720p Wii U version with no problem, I really don't care if they optimize it further. I'd just like to play the damn game.

Too many chefs spoil the broth, maybe? I'm not a developer, but I don't imagine the entire team is simultaneously working on a Switch port -- things would probably get messy that way. Do the rest of Playtonic just go home? Or do they multitask by finishing the Kickstarter stretch goals? There's pro...

Why is DLC even being considered for development when the full game isn't out yet for the backers who have put up with the slap in the face about no Wii U version, the slap in the face about no Switch release date let alone a release window, and the slap in the face about no physical Switch version?...

I just hate seeing this thread keep getting bumped. I'm interested in productive discussions.

But since this thread is full of repeated opinions - if they're not going to have JonTron, I hope they'll go back on their deal with Yadda Clob Gims to have Shoved Knight in the game.

Yeah, I added NNI or w/e as a foe in the hopes I could hide that thread. Didn't disappear. If anyone knows some good CSS code, that'd be great. This is the best I can do: @-moz-document domain("forums.playtonicgames.com") { a.topictitle[href="./viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5255"]{ vis...

I would think Holiday 2017. I dont think most of you know what "porting" is. Its not like you can click some magic button and the game will automatically be converted to the switch. Actually, with Unity, that's exactly what it is. We've seen this with other developers who ported their gam...

Well, we've got no news and everything obvious has been said. What else is there to say but rubbish? :) They said 'very soon' in the Ninty indie presentation. Holiday 2017 isn't 'very soon'. Altho I do agree that it's ridiculous that we still have no info regarding the release window. I would think...

Can we get the feature to block users and/or threads from being displayed on a personal level? That way things I consider SPAM are not shown to me even if Playtonic will tolerate it.

Can we personally block threads so we don't see this junk? I have no idea what's going on, but as Playtonic is not a government that promises freedom of speech and equal opportunity, there is literally nothing wrong with whatever they're doing by not including someone in their development team or wh...

This game looks better than YL. Is it coming to Switch? If it comes to Switch before Playtonic can get YL on Switch, I may as well get it.

I'm not sure there is a single person who cares about Jon in any capacity and ever has.

I have no idea what controversy you're trying to start here, but Jon has no relevance in the gaming industry and never has.

With all this extra dev time that Playtonic has given themselves, I expect 4K 120 fps on Switch. Anything less would be a slap in the face And that's exactly why I'm so happy that it's coming to a more powerful (and portable!) Nintendo machine! And screw these these "not gonna buy at all if it...
