Also tested on:
Version 1.0.01 on cart. Currently no patch available at the time of testing (March 2024). Complete on cart.
No major issues found, but a few minor annoyances:
While it’s super subtle, we still noticed occasional stuttering and slowdown, especially during sequences where the camera would transition from gameplay to a cutscene.
There was an issue with sound. When a loud sound occurs, the speakers on the Switch seem to cut out for a few seconds. This was probably the biggest issue during this testing, as it briefly broke the immersion.
The load times can become an issue when choosing the “Meditate” mode. This mode allows the player to watch underwater creatures such as fish, whales and dolphins swim around a specific area. For some reason, this particular mode takes quite a bit to load. While it is relaxing to view and experience, the load times do harp it down quite a bit.
