It SHOULD be OUT NOW or "very soon" I got the confirmation from Nintendo that "it PASSED" so I am not sure how long it takes to be actually out.

Mind you the patch is SO small you may not even realise it's been installed ?

[edit] - you see why it's "paranoia" about the patches ? I CAN *GUARANTEE* you I've done, uploaded and all the forms about the patch 2 days before I left for Italy .. see the time it takes about "beaureacracy" ...

I thought it would be like Dead Cells on my switch that you would see it update....

If you own the Switch version, highlight it on the Home menu, and press +, you will proceed to an information screen/menu.

The old version is 1.0.1; the new update is 1.0.2. If you see "Ver. 1.0.2 | Atari Inc." underneath the game title, you already have the update. If not, you'll be prompted to download it when you run the game while connected to the Internet.

I look forward to playing it =) It definitely looks like the crash bug was 100% fixed, because Deckard already has a score of 8773295 on Pure mode =)

Those last 10 - Harsh - Def a lot harder than TxK especially as the gunners at the end seem different from YxK in a) they're fire seems harder to destroy and b) with the general mess being well messier on T4000 its hard to see their bullets....

I dont know why but I failed a couple of the bonus levels where you follow the green trails which never happens - I didnt do anything different but it said I failed and I sort of slowed to a halt so if anyone can enlighten me why it would be appreciated.....

My Survival score is terrible and will almost double hopefully shortly when I pull out one good game but as I told Misift a few days back the yellow levels (20-30) can just eat lives - bar a few later levels I would say they are the hardest in the game...the infinity one, the 720 one and the rams head all suck balls !

Some of the path bonus levels have gaps. You have to push forward to have a bigger chance to make it to the other end without running out of energy.

I just bought a Switch OLED today and T4K. It looks beautiful and plays really well. There were a couple of times where there was some slowdown that I never saw in the PC version, but I guess that's to be expected when you're playing on an aging mobile chipset.

Hi, could you remember/tell me where precisely ? Just to know "in what situation" that happens.

Well yes the Switch is quite powerful .. but it's not a PC that's for sure, still it's quite powerful.

Yeah I have seen some slowdown but really really infrequent, like once in 5 or 6 hours gameplay - usually when Beauty mode and the super zapper coincide....

Could it be some clock throttle to save power or such ?

Beauty is a bit of "a heavy shader" has quite a bit of computations.

It was a combination of "Beauty", the superzapper, and a bunch of flowers exploding. I don't remember exactly when it happened, but it was a fairly early level. Green petals everywhere! It was glorious!

I honestly had no idea this came out on Switch.. I saw an Atari post on facebook saying it's on sale.. I had to check here to make sure it was an official port before purchasing. Glad to see it was done by you fine folks. Total support.
