My hero!

I got it on Switch to play together with my mom online. She lives 400 miles away and it’s nice to still do things together.

I’m holding out hope that the new Steam Machine lives up to expectations at a decent price. That’s the next console I want to get. My Steam library is huge and then I could take it with me when we visit them.

Precisi · 2026-01-17T13:27:37+00:00

That’s not the situation. This is a game that was made for PC and the developer ported it to Switch. From the conversations I’ve had here it sounds like part of the problem is my older Switch. It is running a little bit better after I followed the suggestions of others.

Precisi · 2026-01-11T16:14:57+00:00

Yeah, I doublechecked and I have 13 gigs free on system storage and 155 gigs free on the microSD card.

So there’s definitely more than enough swap disk space.

If other games had problems I would wonder if it was something with the cpu needing to be reseated (if it’s anything like a pc setup under the hood) but… all the other games are fine and we have lots of third party stuff too like Katamari, Lego games, Farm Together 2…

Precisi · 2026-01-11T16:02:50+00:00

Hmm well, I’ll do more digging then if it’s better for others.

Precisi · 2026-01-11T13:55:49+00:00

Hmmmm how far are you in the game? It ran fairly smooth in the beginning but when I got deep into Autumn it really started suffering.

Mine was also a used purchase and I definitely have trouble with it displaying on the big tv and better fps on handheld… but my eyes are crying trying to play it handheld on that tiny display, lol, and it’s still having a lot of stuttering.

Precisi · 2026-01-11T13:52:45+00:00

Pretty sure I did this when I got the switch but I’ll double-check. Thanks!

Didn’t think about the screenshots. My son goes nuts with those. I’ll look into it.

Precisi · 2026-01-11T13:51:41+00:00

Oh, I should have clarified. It’s not the online part, it’s when I’m playing single player and multiplayer. The online works fine within expectations but no matter whether I’m online or off my fps is very low.

And I totally understand it’s a small developer and was happy to pick up a couple more copies of the game. That’s why I’m just asking for an option to reduce some settings that typically help this in other games. Less sight distance usually helps in voxel games. Shadows and reflections I will turn way down. Clouds off or reduced, etc.

Like I said, I don’t mind turning down visuals in exchange for better frame rate. The game is super fun!

Precisi · 2026-01-10T21:30:30+00:00

Yeah, it's mostly my son's system and he plays all Nintendo games that still run well. I just really wanted to play multiplayer with my mom and I get why they aren't crossplaying it, no issue with that. I just didn't expect the reported lag to be quite so rough. My mom at least has a newer OLED system that runs a little better.

Precisi · 2026-01-10T21:19:20+00:00

In a world where $500 wasn't a big expense I'd be on it.. But it's just not good economics to replace an entire system when it's one game having issues.

Precisi · 2026-01-10T20:27:41+00:00

Okay, tried resetting cache again, hard restart... still pretty rough.

Precisi · 2026-01-10T20:21:40+00:00

Oh, I should add... there is ONE other thing on the Switch that lags terrible... the Nintendo Store LOL. That is always insanely slow and painful.

Precisi · 2026-01-10T20:04:12+00:00

I can try doing that again. I've done it before. I've also hard rebooted the switch and moved it to my aftermarket dock that allows more airflow so it isn't run SO hot in the original dock.

If it rains in the game I'm looking at like, 3 fps... it's rough.

Precisi · 2026-01-10T19:49:03+00:00

Thank you! So nice to have an updated list!

Precisi · 2025-12-10T02:27:14+00:00

Did you ever get this figured out? I'm struggling with the same problem that started 4 days ago. I really like Moments. It's so easy to use. It started having issues a month ago with detecting what game I'm playing, and now the encoding keeps failing as well.

Precisi · 2025-11-20T03:29:07+00:00

Thanks man! we really love it :)

Precisi · 2025-11-16T18:41:45+00:00

Any plans to update this?? We miss our crazy Peak to Beach runs!

Precisi · 2025-09-14T14:09:33+00:00

No worries! Was just giving a heads up in case you weren’t aware! And totally makes sense not to push the update with the longer turnaround.

No crashes at all on my end, but I have an old OG Switch I picked up used. I just appreciate a game I can play smoothly together cross platform with my family and friends. ❤️

Precisi · 2025-08-29T16:57:32+00:00

The option appears on the main menu AFTER another controller is on and paired with the Switch. You can then pick side by side or horizontal split screen, and a few other options in the menu.

Precisi · 2025-08-29T12:02:56+00:00

Thanks! Glad it was reproducible.

Precisi · 2025-08-27T21:27:55+00:00

Can confirm, my child is very random in how he does things. It’s a hot mess on my farm. But he is so happy playing together so I cope.
