Suzerain Nintendo Switch Dev Update

[p]

Dear Citizens of the Suzerainverse,

Okay, we’ll admit it. The Nintendo Switch version of Suzerain hasn’t received the love it truly deserves. We’ve been focusing heavily on updating the PC and mobile builds to version 3.1 and launching the Kingdom of Rizia DLC across these platforms. But that’s about to change!
[/p][p]The last time Suzerain was updated on Nintendo Switch was to V1.1.0, back in 2021. Over the past few months, however, we’ve been hard at work bringing the Switch version up to speed with its current state; and we’re thrilled to announce that the update is just around the corner.
[/p][p]To get a closer look at its development, we caught up with Torpor Games’ programmer Julian Nowak, who’s been leading the charge on Switch.
[/p][p]Hey Julian! Thanks for chatting with us. Can you give us a quick status update on the Switch build of Suzerain?[/p][p]
“Let’s just say that big things are coming for Switch! We’ve been working hard to ensure the Switch build matches the latest Steam/PC version. We’ve also been gaining and iterating on feedback from Nintendo. At times, it’s felt like a bit of a waiting game, but it’s all shaping up to be something special!”
[/p][p]What have been the biggest challenges so far?
[/p][p]“For the most part, it was actually pretty straightforward (wipes brow). I could get it running almost immediately without major hurdles. That said, there were some issues with the Nintendo Unity package related to file operations. Certain nuances that work fine on PC didn’t translate to Switch, so I had to find new ways to handle those instances.”
[/p][p]What’s been the most rewarding part of working on this update?
[/p][p]“It’s incredibly cool to see the updated version of Suzerain running on Switch, especially since I’m a regular Switch player myself! Watching a game you’ve worked on come to life on a console you love is an amazing feeling.”
[/p][p]How excited are you to see this update go live?
[/p][p]“I’m definitely super excited! It’s been quite a ride. I honestly can’t wait to see it live on the Nintendo eShop and finally give the Switch community the experience they deserve.”
[/p][p]Here’s a little glimpse of the visual changes in the upcoming Switch update:
