I'm a little surprised you guys didn't talk about the controls at all. Especially because this was originally made for the PC (using a mouse). Are the controls on the Switch intuitive? Or do they feel clunky?

Before some of you get disappointed for expecting something different from the trailer, I just want to point out: the game receive 99% Overwhelming Positive on Steam.

So yeah, it's a legit good game.

The art style and general gameplay really doesn’t appeal to me, but I’ve heard great things about this one, glad it’s on the Switch! Seems like a game that would be much better portable.

Bought this game strictly based off the last couple of minutes of this video and I gotta say I love it. I didn't think I'd be into it either but decided to jump in it's fantastic

Your reviewer is incorrect: you don't HAVE to lay down those spider cards. If you don't they eventually get pushed out of your hands and added to your resources. That's a pretty big deal as it means his whole premise is wrong there - the same goes for the quantity of loops before the boss: you don't have to push for "as many loops as possible can" to beat the boss it's simply not how the game works, it can actually make it harder.

You have to plan for the boss strategically and sometimes that's EXACTLY going to mean going earlier on. As always, I enjoy the channel but having so many reviewers means you just can't quality control them.

This kinda reminds me of the runescape digital card game. Instead of fighting directly at your opponent, you are using your cards to power up your character by fighting the monsters in your path by either weakening the monster, making them stronger for better loot, or messing with your opponents monster/character. Except here its with tower defense.

"A reverse tower defense game" is a great way to describe it, but I also like "Dungeon Master simulator"

Sold.
The only issue is that static image (the bar) won't that burn into the switches OLED?
That has me a little worried. Besides that, look awesome and I will pick it up.

15 minute review for a game ported to console for the first time and literally zero mentions of how well controllers navigate the UI that was made for kb/m...wut?

[kwigbo]

Looks like this has a physical release that goes on sale today dec 9th.

[Magmagan]

You sold me on the first half of the review. I really didn't understand why Loop Hero would be interesting from the Direct, but I was sold when the inverse-tower-defense mechanic was explained. Looks like it would feel better on PC though, getting the Steam version instead.

The music is indeed awesome. Great game, great price.

Is the UI and text readable on the Switch Lite? Wanted to ask since that's primarily how I'd play something like this. I couldn't really enjoy Dragon's Dogma (as one example) on the Lite since the UI text was so tiny!

[edjones]

Please can anyone help. I have a switch lite . This game looks great on YouTube but I'm worried about the small text on the lites smaller screen. If anyone has loop hero for switch and plays on a lite I'd like any feedback. Thanks ☺️

I watched the trailer some minutes ago and now some gameplay from you guys is amazing.

Bring more indie content and also keep the great content that you do. 👍🏽💯

[Terron]

Beat this game last night. Its fantastic. Love it. God bless the Indie scene.

[MassiveRican]

I’m glad I stayed to watch after the post NL credits. Since the gameplay looks like it wouldn’t be up my alley but the premise and possibly that hook might be quite satisfying I’m gonna give it a shot.

[chrisbarnes]

I have this on the PC and switch now. I love it but I never have time for computer play. It on switch is better in a way because of it's portability and easy of pick up, put down. I love it

Played the whole game with out realizing you can hold down L2 to scroll over enemy to see stats. Also the speed stats are missing from the game and there is a glitch in the game where it will error to a blue screen and kick you out of the the entire game. Also I highly recommend turning on battle speed to play the game faster. Great game but I wouldn’t mind if there was some sort of proper tutorial for it. The story is short but epic . Still a great game . Boss fights are easy as long as your armor level correlates with your loop number its a easy win. Wish there was more character class to choose from and more enemies. You pretty much push towards a infinite loop to just farm spiders and resources to trick out your town. The fun part of the game is just figuring out how to play it because there is so little info on how to play it lol

[usaliengames]

Pre-ordered and just waiting for Nintendo to let me play it!
