Congrats on the Switch launch! You got me to buy this game a second time :) But, uh... could you get Summitsphere to make Vertical Mode rotate the screen in either direction - you know, like literally every other game with a vertical option? Actual monitors made for vertical rotation only turn in one direction, and it's the other direction (at least for mine, but I'm pretty sure for most). Playing in TATE was a big reason I paid for the game again, but I'm very disappointed that right now I can only do so upside-down.
Just wanted to note that the patch is out and my vertical-capable monitor is very happy now :)
...But, uh, the in-game music is now failing to loop properly. About every 17 seconds it starts over. It gets even weirder when rubies are grabbed. How did this even get messed with? It's insufferable. Guess I'm waiting for ANOTHER patch to fix what this one broke :(
So THAT patch is finally out, and I can now play without my ears wanting to bleed.
HOWEVER. Now all the text is misaligned. "1UP" and "HI-SCORE" are cut off at the top of the screen; "CAST" and "SCORING" in the intro are half buried under the game logo; the coin count doesn't line up with the coin; other messages stick half a character height above the black-background box provided for them. Even Achievement messages are cut off.
There's "clearly didn't playtest for even half a minute", and then there's "clearly didn't even LOOK at the patched game before shipping it". It's beyond reprehensible - it's pitiable at this point. This game deserves better than this. I look forward to three months from now when this is patched and something even more obviously and immediately apparent is needlessly broken at the same time.
I was talking about the Switch version the whole time. Which is why I referenced the company that published that version. This was just the only place I knew I could contact the original dev, as I'm sure they'd want to see the port be the best it can be and could probably help coerce the publisher to do something about it. (Incidentally, Summitsphere did respond that they'd be fixing it.)
