***Please note, I completed this game 100% before on Nintendo Switch. When starting a new game, the collectibles remain collected. During this playthrough, I was unable to collect the shells or active pools.*** 

No major issues found, but a couple things I would like to mention. First and foremost, the game does have some stutter. While it’s super subtle, it is something that was noticed, especially during sequences where the camera would transition from gameplay to a cutscene. 

I also noticed some slowdown. Again, not super noticeable, but some areas did seem to run slower than normal. I assume it is when frame rates were beginning to drop. 

There is an issue with sound. When a loud sound occurs, the speakers on the Switch seem to cut out for a few seconds. This was probably the biggest issue during my testing, as it removed me from the experience. 

The last issue I noticed was load times. While load times are relatively short with the game proper, it does become an issue when choosing the “Meditate” mode. This mode allows the player to watch underwater creatures such as fish, whales and dolphins swim around a specific area. For some reason, this particular mode takes quite a bit to load. While it is relaxing to view and experience, the load times do harp it down quite a bit. 

Difficulty options: None 

Accessibility options: None

Languages: English only. I was unable to find any other language option. 

No DRM. Played entirely in handheld mode.
