The Switch has a host of features you won't find on other platforms, like HD Rumble, portability, split Joy-Con play, and more. Indie devs are keen to include some of these features in their games, as we've seen already. IGN chatted with a few indie devs working on Switch to see if they have plans to include some of Switch's unique features in their upcoming releases.
Klaus Lyngeled, Director of Zoink Games’ Fe
“We are trying to use the HD rumble as much as possible. HD rumble in combination with the singing mechanic in Fe fits really well together since the rumble has such subtleties. You can also control the singing style of Fe with by tilting the Joy Cons.”
GUTS Department Game Director Bryce Kho, on Aegis Defenders
“On any platform, our game allows you to use drop-in co-op at anytime but on the Switch, the ability to just slide off one Joy-Con and play co-op anywhere takes it to another level.”
Dead Cells developers Sebastien and Steve Filby of Motion Twin
“We would love to. We’re currently working on it, but some of the cooler stuff may come post release as we work in conjunction with the Switch community and respond to their requests.”
Matt Makes Games’ Matt Thorson (Celeste, TowerFall Ascension)
“We love the Switch and all its quirky features. In the future we'd love to experiment with designs specifically tailored to the system.”
