Yesterday's Nindies Showcase unveiled a treasure trove of new indie games headed to the Nintendo Switch eShop, but that's far from the only announcements. Along with the confirmation Morphies Law is still coming (despite its absence from the Showcase), developer Butterscotch Shenanigans has confirmed its own sci-fi survival adventure, Crashlands, is also headed to Switch.
Set to arrive in 2018, Crashlands casts you as Flux Dabes, an intergalactic delivery trucker who 'crash lands' (geddit?) on an alien planet and must survive so he can complete said delivery on time. It's a survival game and a top-down shooter all rolled into one, and it should add another string to Switch's growing Nindies bow.
Let us know what you think of Crashlands, and whether you think it'll be a good fit for Switch...

Looks cool!
Looks like the plot of Futurama
I love crashlands on android and will probably love it even more with physical controls
This is a great mobile game that will only be better on a real console.
Great game and very nice story behind this game: http://toucharcade.com/2015/03/27/crashlands-the-last-game-i-make-before-i-die/
Fun game. Have it on Steam and Android. I wonder if the cross account stuff will be on Switch. I'd grab it again if so.
@Bliquid Cuz the game repeatedly refers to Flux as 'her' and 'she', maybe?
I played it on android. Pretty decent little game, but it got kinda repetitive soon.
I played the heck out of this game on mobile and will probably play it more on The Switch. Think 'Don't Starve' meets friendly aliens. It's a deep and fun experience.
Last iOS game I really liked
This is a good game tbf a lot of content, for real a mobile game I recommend. The devs who made it, the one guy was battling cancer through out making this and says this game saved him, a lot of love was put into this which is why this will do well on eshop. I still play this on my iPad from 2 years ago!
Damn all this mobile ports...
I played Crashlands on Steam and ANdroid. It was fun for about a month but the game has far too little variety and too much killing, looting, making gear, killing, looting, making gear, etc
Lost me at Top-Down.
@Drussa ninja cutting onions...
I loved this game on android. So I can't wait to get it on the switch. It surprised me how awesome it was and how cheap it was. Great game Butterscotch shenanigans.
