Patch Notes:

Known Issues (updated 18th May 2019)

This section lists each platform’s outstanding issues and their current status. Also included are any known fixes or workarounds, where relevant.

General Issues

• [SWITCH] Crash in Mormo Tower, or player_gadgets() line 909
  • This is fixed in 1.16.00, which is currently awaiting LotCheck approval. Until this build is live, please unequip either the Vampire or Laser Ring to prevent the crash
• [SWITCH] Long Boot Time
  • When launching The Swords of Ditto, it will take around 30 seconds to display a logo, and around a minute to get the menus. If the game is installed onto an SD card with a slow transfer rate, then this boot time will be increased. You can mitigate this by installing onto the Switch’s System Memory. To do this, you need to delete the software from the SD card, take the card out and re-download the title.
