Independent games are often described as "handmade" but an upcoming Headup title takes that to new heights.

Trüberbrook, a German-developed adventure title, will release on the Switch eShop on April 17, with a physical version to follow two days later. Each character in the game was individually constructed by hand, with small flourishes added to make them stand out when digitized.

Because MV isn't out yet, they had to remake it from the ground up.

A beloved adventure RPG will soon make its console debut on Switch.

To The Moon, an episode adventure that originally released on Windows in 2011, will be launching on Switch this summer. The tale of attempting to piece together a dying man's memories won several awards for story in its initial release.

"Oh, this is gonna be a light week." "Why must you turn this news section into a house of LIES?"

So much for the easy week, huh?

Yeah, I'm never believing that again. I think the list nearly doubled between the Direct and people who think shadowdropping stuff on Thursday/Friday is a good idea.
