[Switch] Screencheat $12.59 (was $17.99, 30% off), Feather $9.45 (was $13.50, 30% off) @ Nintendo eShop

Hey Ozbargain!

I'm from Samurai Punk, a small Aussie indie studio based in Melbourne, here to share the biggest discounts so far on our Nintendo Switch games!

For those of you who remember the ol days of Goldeneye 64 / Halo, Screencheat is a splitscreen multiplayer shooter but all the characters are invisible, so you HAVE to look at each others screens! Supports up to 4 players (plus bots) and works with single Joy-Con too!

Our other title is Feather, a relaxing zen bird flight game, where you can chill out on a vast island with other birds online, enjoy gorgeous scenery and a soothing soundtrack.

It's been awesome seeing Ozbargain's support for other Australian indie games, so thanks for all the love you've been giving our little industry. <3

If you have any questions / comments about the games, I'll be happy to answer!

Cheers,
Winston

    Screencheat is an awesome game if you like Goldeneye!

    • I want to get it but is it still fun if you only have 2 players?

      • +1

        The game does support bots to fill out extra slots, but that said two player standoffs are pretty tense and fun in their own way!

      • +5

        Yes definitely. A mate and I played for an hour or two in 2 player only at a gaming bar. Pretty much every round or two you unlock modifiers or levels so it does not get boring for a while.

        Also note, you can play the game with only 1 Joy-con with aiming using motion controls. It works surprisingly well!

        • +3

          Thanks I'll get it then. Sounds like good fun

    • Thanks for that!

      How do you generate these direct links?

      • +1

        i find you can google the game name limited to the EC Nintendo site to get it (or the NZ site which you can change to au)
        E.g

        site:ec.nintendo.com feather

    • +1

      Why are the links so hard to find from the main site!
      But i find you can google the game name limited to the EC Nintendo site to get it
      E.g

      site:ec.nintendo.com stardew

    Wow I remember going to a game jam with TAFE and playing this in 2015. You guys were really chill and the game was so much fun I wanted to leave my table and just play it all day :D

    Will have to get this on the switch for sure!

    • Oh hey, small world! Happy to say the game's come a long way since that game jam version haha. Thanks for the support! :)

      • +1

        Checking in too! I played it at the Powerhouse Museum on a GGJ demo day :D

        Would like to echo the above

        • Haha oh neat, well thanks for still having interest in the game after all those years! :)

  • Just purchased Feather. Love supporting local devs. Looking forward to playing it.

    • +1

      Thank you, we really appreciate the support! <3

  • -1

    So if all splitscreen games start to offer mod to make the character invisible…

  • +1

    Any chance of VR support for Feather?

  • Screencheat looks like great fun, I will be giving this a try!

    Slightly off topic, but how do you search online for current prices of Switch games?

  • Mate, love to support local developer!

    • Thank yoouuu! <3

    Didn't know that Screencheat was an Aussie export! Well done! Have had a load of fun playing this game with a mate on PC (who's a notorious whinger about screencheating). If you have a second, I'm curious to know what the cost of selling through Nintendo's eShop is.

    • +8

      Cheers dude, hope the game helped your mate come to terms with screencheating. P:
      As for your query, there's actually no up-front cost apart from purchasing a development kit (don't know if I can say how much, but they're affordable), afterwards Nintendo takes a 30% cut of revenue. If you want to know more, Nintendo's dev portal is open to the public to check out: https://developer.nintendo.com/

      • +1

        Thanks mate - I did a cursory Google and didn't come across the dev portal. All the best!

  • Aussies are killing it on the Switch. No idea what it is, but I'll have a crack.

    • Cheers, hope you enjoy! Switch is the best place for indies right now for sure!

  • already own this on Steam, really need to get it on Switch or PS4 also , when does the special end?

    • Awesome, thanks for double dipping, the Switch version's actually quite different so hope you dig the updates! :D The special ends on the 24th

      • does the game support gamecube controllers? :) ,

        • Yep! They're treated just like a wired pro controller.

  • I will purchase your two games to support tonight or….once I finish gears of wars 5.

    • Thanks! <3 Enjoy Gears!

    Chiming in; Own Screencheat on Steam from few years ago; Definitely a fun lounge-room game for parties and friends. Used to hook-up my laptop to a big screen TV and plug in a bunch of USB controllers to play.

    • Appreciate the kind words! :) Glad you had fun with it!

  • Great game. Got it in a humble bundle ages ago, played it a good amount on PC. The Switch definitely needs more split-screen FPS action.

    • Thanks a bunch! Yeah split-screen FPS is super rare these days, doesn't get enough love.

  • I didn’t know Screencheat was made by locals, awesome! I just grabbed it. It looks like a great game I can play with my kids, thanks OP.

    • You're very welcome, thanks for picking up the game and hope you and the fam enjoy it! :D

  • Thanks! I own this on steam but I don't get around to playing it enough because I find it difficult to setup even with steam link. I think I will buy it on switch just for ease of use. Love the game, didn't know it was locally made.

    • Cheers, we've made the user experience Switch version even more streamlined to make it faster and easier to start games so hope that alleviates some of the hassle!

  • Played way too many hours of Screencheat with my mate… We have had many a tense standoff with the wall_Hacker - great job on a great game guys!

    • +1

      Haha awesome, sounds like you guys are pros to be able to be proficient with the wall_Hacker, that thing's a tricky beast. Thanks for the support!

  • So you can play Feather with up to 4 players? How does that work?

    • Feather supports up to 8 players online, it works kinda like Journey where players anonymously appear in your game world and you can fly around with each other. It has crossplay with the Steam version too!

  • Oooo was curious about this game on PC, but I reckon it'd be heaps more fun on the Switch - will definitely grab a copy. And I'm pretty surprised at how smooth it runs on the videos I've seen too! The lag in Rocket League and even the small hang times in Heave Ho really break the fun with my mates :(

    • +2

      Thanks, we worked really hard to get it running at 60fps with 4 players on the Switch, glad you noticed! :D

  • Checked out the store tonight and seen it screen cheats was on special (it's been on my watch list for a while) so i went ahead and purchased it. Thought I'd come onto OzBargain and see if there were any other deals for the switch and was pleasantly surprised to see this within 5 minutes after my purchase AND to find out it's an Australian made game! Looking forward to playing it on the weekend!

    • Thanks the support, enjoy the game! :)

  • you guys made screencheat? Awesome!

    • +1

      Yup and thanks! :D

      • just wanna day i love it mate! thank you for making it and hope to see more from you guys in the future :)

  • Any other good switch deals going at the moment on the e-store?

    • +1

      I use dekudeals.com for eShop. Can sort by largest discount, highly rated, etc. Pages have the direct purchase links too, which is awesome.

  • Legit forgot about this game. Remember seeing when it was first announced and thought it was a brilliant idea. Dunno how I missed it. Grabbing for the next games night.

    • Haha well good news is, the Switch version is much improved from the original release back in 2014. Thanks, and enjoy!

  • Thanks OP, just bought it, keep it up, these are the types of switch deals we wanna see!

    • Thanks mate, really appreciate the support and the kind welcome from the community! :D
