That's really interesting. Hopefully the content makes it out.

Anyone else looking a game like this, I've heard Brotato is quite good. Comes out on Switch soon.

Brotato is another game I see constantly sitting in the list of most played games on Deck. I really should try it.

Yeah, this does look very cool although I'm wondering about how it will perform on Switch. It's pretty hectic and the text and icons looks rather small. We'll find out soon as it launches on 17 August.

The tie-in-game for Renfield was a VS type thing with it's own spin on it.
Not bad at all and worth a look.

This is now up on the eshop to pre-order along with the DLC, each have a discount of 10% so the main game is £3.59 with the DLC being £1.43 each.

Pre-ordered all 3, roll on 17th :toot:

This must be a great game because loads of folk have raved about it - and the circa £3 price tag feels very generous. I've looked again at the Switch screenshots, though, and the text and symbols look tiny and the colourings don't help, either; I'm never gonna distinguish between those reds and browns. I'm guessing it was the same on PC and Xbox.

Never had an issue with text on the screen on the Steam Deck, so near enough the same resolution as the switch. I've never had any issues distinguishing been icons on menus etc, but the game getting progressively less legibile in gameplay as you progress into the late game is kind of the point.

That's good to hear, Knoyleo, although I'll be holding off until I see a few reviews. Even though it's cheap, I'm gonna wait and see!

There's a little online demo here https://poncle.itch.io/vampire-survivors

Maybe you can resize the window to see what it's like?

Thanks for the heads-up, Mafro! I just tried clicking it on my iPad but just got a red screen - I'll try it on the computer later.

How about watching a video of it on YouTube on your Switch?

Wait why can't you play the mobile app on your iPad?
