FUZE Technologies have announced that the release date of their highly anticipated ‘learn to code’ games programming application, FUZE4 Nintendo Switch, has been delayed until 31st May. Although this is the second delay the program has had, there have been additional new features added which have created new issues to resolve before release. FUZE Technologies, has released a new video (see below) apologising for the delay but also treats us to a glimpse of what new features await.
FUZE4 Nintendo Switch will allow both children and adults to learn code with an easy to learn text based programming language. There’s absolutely no coding experience required in creating your own apps and games and it can even be set up so that Joycon sensors and controls can work with them. There’s no need to worry about audio or graphics as there are plenty to use from FUZE4, although it is possible to create your own.
Managing director Jon Silvera commented, “in all honesty we’re all a bit disappointed to have delayed further but there really was no other option. The 31st of May is a comfortable date as we’re already in the final stages, no new features are being added just testing and adding as much tutorial and help content as we can. FUZE4 Nintendo Switch is special as there really is nothing else like it. We always knew we could come up with the goods but none of us realised quite how impressive the final release version would be. It’s fast, intuitive and very accessible.”
“Finally, Nintendo’s awesome Switch made it possible for us to realise the answer to the original question that began this journey. The question, could we recreate the accessible coding environment those of us who grew up in the 1970’s and 80’s was exposed to? The answer, after seven years of hard, but very enjoyable work, and thanks in no small part to Nintendo, is a resounding yes. Beyond our own expectations YES! Go code.”
FUZE4 Nintendo Switch is unlike anything else released for the console and will be available on 31st May.
