The Nintendo Switch version is an upgraded version of the current Steam version. It is largely the same, but we've gone through the whole game again and made many smaller and some bigger tweaks. Ranging from tweaking jump distances to replacing some puzzles.
We intend to bring these changes to the Steam version later this year. (The Nintendo Switch version is build on a different game engine and we intend to make the Steam version use that one too.)
At launch the game will be available in the regions: Americas, Europe and Japan. We'll be working on the other regions after the release.
You can pre-order here:
Nintendo Eshop Europe / Australia
Nintendo Eshop Americas
Nintendo Eshop Japan

Mac version no longer available
Apple's latest operating system no longer supports 32 bit apps. We won't be able to create a 64 bit version of the game easily and will for now remove the Mac version. We hope to have a Mac build available again later.

Update for Mac - Fix/Workaround for Friend Invite overlay missing.
It is still not perfect as it seems that with the current game engine we're using there is no way to make the invite work as intended.
The workaround after the update is to select 'invite friend' from the menu and then press Shift + Tab to launch the Steam overlay, which would then allow you to invite a friend.
In the long run we hope to have a proper solution as we understand this is not ideal.
Cheers

Out now on Mac and Linux with 30% discount
Celebrating ibb & obb's one year anniversary on Steam we launch the Mac and Linux versions and will run a 30% discount until June 2nd.
We had a great first year on Steam with over 100.000 players owning the game for Windows PC. It feels good to now also have our coop friends available for those of you who are on Mac and Linux.
Have fun.

For those who experience a crash, please update your video card drivers
We're sorry to hear that the game is crashing for some people and we're looking into the crash logs.
For now we can give one tip which has helped many of beta testers when they had trouble: update your graphics card drivers.
The easiest way to update your drivers is through steam itself. Hit "Steam" in the top-left menu and select "Check for Video Driver Updates".
If the game is still crashing, try manually updating your drivers. There is a guide on Steam on how to do this here: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=6416-EYDH-0477
In addition to the above guide, here are some direct links to the intel and nvidia driver websites:
