I played this a lot on PC. I like that all the characters (and there's a ton of them) have very different play styles.
It's more intense than Vampire Survivors in my opinion. Sometimes in VS, you get a good build going and you have little chance of losing, so you can sleepwalk through the rest of the level. In Brotato that doesn't really happen. Most builds are pretty fragile so you have to pay more attention and dodge more than with VS.
I also like that you shop between waves. Slowly putting together your build from the store.
All of that said, I wouldn't play it on Switch. The game requires pretty intense focus and I just don't like fast paced games on the Switch with it's low fps and lower processing power. Games just feel more sluggish and less responsive. When I stopped playing Dead Cells on Switch and bought it on PC I beat it within a week. This was after trying to beat it on Switch for several months.
So, Brotato is a great game. But I would play it on PC if you can.
Well, don't know about Dead Cells, but I am enjoying Brotato on Switch. Maybe because I haven't experienced it on PC, I am not noticing any slow down or other issues. It's running perfectly for me.
I don't think Dead Cells had performance issues as much as the Switch just has less fps which gives you a split second less time to react to things.
Also, the Switch controllers are finicky.
Glad to hear Brotato is running smooth. It's a fun game and I appreciate a lot of the game design.
