Excitement reached its peak when Atooi’s Jools Watsham announced that the development of Hatch Tales for the Nintendo Switch was finally complete in the latest Kickstarter update. However, just when fans thought the wait was over, there was another “last minute delay” due to a whirlwind of activity this month. Watsham assured fans that the game is now “on the cusp” of being submitted to Nintendo for its “final approval”, with an expectation for another update soon.

The news of yet another delay came as a disappointment to many, especially since Hatch Tales was initially supposed to arrive on August 23, 2024. Watsham took the opportunity to apologize for the delay, acknowledging that the team understands how frustrating these last-minute setbacks can be. He expressed gratitude for the continued patience of the fans throughout the long development process.

For those curious about the game’s progress, a “developer deep dive” was shared back in June, giving fans a glimpse of the first six levels of Hatch Tales. Additionally, in the latest update to backers, a “sneak peek” was provided of one of the bonus “Chibi-Mudds” levels that players will have the opportunity to unlock in the game, inspired by Mutant Mudds. Despite the extended development time of over six years, the dedication to delivering a high-quality gaming experience remains evident.

Originally known as ‘Chicken Wiggle Workshop’, Hatch Tales was crowdfunded in early 2018 with an initial estimated delivery date of December 2018. The project has faced several delays along the way, prompting questions about the reasons behind the extended timeline. Fans are left to ponder their feelings about this latest setback, balancing anticipation with the reality of the challenges inherent in game development processes.

The journey of Hatch Tales from conception to completion has been a rollercoaster ride of excitement, anticipation, and occasional disappointment. The dedication of the development team to delivering a polished and engaging gaming experience shines through, despite the unforeseen hurdles along the way. As fans eagerly await the final release date announcement, the hope remains that the wait will prove to be worth it in the end.
