Wasn't there something about adding extra language translation options (or maybe that already happened)?
Also I thought someone on these boards mentioned that Playtonic said the orchestral score wasn't happening anymore.

Hmmm, I looked it up and I think you mean:
'Professional French, German, Spanish & Italian translations! Plus extra languages voted by backers'.
Tbh, I don't know if that is implemented yet (I didn't see a poll for backers or anything).
+ There were some disturbing Twitter posts about the orchestral score, but nothing was announced officially (I think)...

I know neither of those things are technically an announcement of cancellation but I'm not holding out a lot of hope for it. (And if I had to pick one of the stretch goals to lose, I'd go orchestra over DLC, the other potentially costly goal, every time.)

Well that's a bit rude. Have you ever done or organized any of this? It's taken Yacht Club Games until... well, probably until next year to follow through on all of their Kickstarter promises, and there's clearly a lot of work and detail that goes into these kinds of things. Besides, just because you're done with Yooka-Laylee doesn't mean everyone should be, especially since they promised something and fully intend to follow through on it until something truly extraneous gets int the way (i.e. cancelling the Wii U version and moving to the Switch).

I get what you mean, but c’mon... Their communication towards their fanbase is terrible + we haven’t gotten an update in ages.
Not quite an ideal situation, if you ask me...

Nothing about Playtonic's situation has been ideal, they've been dealing with a lot of blow-back since the removal of JonTron from the game, and things only got worse from there. They can't address every single criticism that comes their way, not to mention their hands are probably tied for one reason or another.
Forgive me if I'm more inclined to be sympathetic to them after all the crap fans have been tossing at them.

Considering from what I've read about Limited Run Games's policy of not producing game carts until all updates and DLC are complete so the game is preserved in physical form, my guess is that the update will be telling us that the DLC is finished (or soon to be finished) so that Limited Run Games can start producing the Switch carts. And that's probably why Playtonic have been so quiet, because they always go really quiet before dropping a big update (like this time last year when they were silent about Switch version progress and we were all speculating that we wouldn't get the game until sometime in 2018, and then out of the blue we got an update saying it was finished and due to be released in December 2017).
