Dear Reader:
Hyper Light Drifter devs working hard to make sure Switch gets the definitive version, HD Rumble supported
A portion of a GeekRetro interview with Eva Gaspar, CEO Abylight Studios...
GR: How many people are working on this project?
EG: There is quite an amount of people working on making sure that Hyper Light Drifter comes to the Nintendo Switch as a definitive version of the game. At Abylight we have 4 developers giving their best on the adaptation work and 2 more working on publishing duties.
Nintendo of Europe is supervising all the progress very closely and then we have a dedicated team at Yoyo Games working on improvements directly on the engine.
GR: Are you going to use Switch features such as HD Rumble or gyroscope?
EG: The game does a wise use of the controller vibration, creating a very immersive experience in some stages. Without a doubt, we’ll improve this experience using the HD Rumble of the Joy-Cons, the goal to be able to feel the journey and the insatiable illness that haunts The Drifter in your hands.
