Indies having great success on Switch is kinda huge news for Nintendo in the long run. Present indies, future big publishers / developers.



I don't know anything about the game, but I'm happy for them that the Switch port was such a windfall that they can stay in business!

As someone who uses both the Switch and Steam, it doesn't really surprise me... I personally use Steam for games that I thereafter sink hundreds of hours into (from RPGs to 4x to grand strategy games), so I honestly don't buy games on it that much. On the Switch, meanwhile, I've purchased a ton of smaller indie games as it feels like the absolute perfect platform for them.

Wouldn't be surprised if other people behave similarly.

So, the sales are like 60,000 then?

Steamspy says the game sold 3,656 units on Steam.

Revenue is over 20x as much on Switch.

Its priced the same on Steam & Switch, however i dont know if its had any past discounts on Steam.

Assuming all units sold are the same price than Switch version sold more than 73,120.

I guess there is a good chance to have sold close to 100k on Switch. The share Nintendo takes from digital sales is probably higher than what Steam takes,probably the revenue per game sold from thirds is bigger on Steam.

Indie games have really done amazing on the Switch. This will benefit both sides.

makes you wonder why the new sega compilation is not being made for switch.



That's just great to hear. Really glad they managed to find success on the Switch. I'm hoping to see some more cool games from them, and I gotta add this to my wishlist.

It's a sad reality with Steam these days that most games are just going to get lost in the avalanche of awful releases, no matter how good they are. Switch is a great platform in that sense for indie titles, as they don't have to compete with so many other games for attention, so games like these get the chance to shine.



game is as mastaaaa pieceeee mwhaaaa - dunkey
