Either way, the whole thing looks beautifully intricate as you can see in the new trailer above.<\/p>\n<p>This month sees the game&#8217;s launch on Steam, with the Switch version headed our way in the fullness of time. We reached out to Chris and he said the Switch edition &#8220;will be coming for sure&#8221; but it&#8217;s not as easy as flicking a (no pun intended) switch due to the game&#8217;s powerful bespoke engine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Update:<\/strong> Chris has also told us that the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/3ds-eshop\/unlikely_legend_of_rusty_pup\">proposed 3DS version<\/a> has been scrapped. According to the developer, the console&#8217;s display resolution is way too small. He also points out that the game won&#8217;t be coming to smartphones for a similar reason &#8211; a large display is needed to fully exploit the game&#8217;s mechanics.<\/p>\n<p>If you like what you see, developer Gory Detail has also shared an extended look at the game.
