Why it matters

The same-name coincidence that started as a Steam curiosity has turned into a publishing arrangement, with one studio carrying the other's Switch port to the same date.

Two Games Named Piece by Piece Will Share a Switch Release Date

Key Facts

  • Gamkat's Piece by Piece and Neon Polygons' Piece by Piece both release on Nintendo Switch on November 25.
  • The two games, both titled Piece by Piece, launched on Steam a day apart in March.
  • No More Robots, publisher of Gamkat's game, is also publishing the Neon Polygons title.
  • Neon Polygons wanted a Switch port but faced time and budget constraints, so No More Robots offered to help.
  • On the Japanese Nintendo Store, the No More Robots title is listed as Piece by Piece in katakana and the Neon Polygons title in Latin letters.

The two indie games shared the same title and near-identical Steam release dates in March, then sold together as a bundle. No More Robots is now also publishing the Neon Polygons game, which it helped port after the studio cited time and budget constraints.

No More Robots had the Switch version of its Piece by Piece planned from the start, with a November 25 date announced earlier. Neon Polygons wanted its own Piece by Piece on Switch too but could not manage the port on its time and budget, so No More Robots offered to help and took on publishing as well.

The two games first collided in March, when Gamkat's forest-animal repair shop sim and Neon Polygons' jigsaw-style puzzle action game landed a day apart on Steam. Both drew strong user reviews there, and the studios later sold them together as the Piece by Piece Double bundle.
