@2thinkds.bsky.social Sorry for the unsolicited message Maybe you have seen that Inspector Waffles has been released on the playdate Catalog. bsky.app/profile/play... Would you be interested in bringing Glory Hunters to the Catalog?

Inspector Waffles Early Days was already available on PC, Switch, Xbox, PS5 and of course Game Boy Color. You can now add the Playdate to the list! 🤯 I'm so proud this port exists, on one of my favorite handheld consoles. Thanks a lot to @panic.com and the CrankBoy team to make it happen ☺️

Playdate game developer Keith Baker has created a super handy, unofficial Mac app for managing a Playdate device. Easy access to screenshots, achievements, logs, and lots more. Check out pdmanager! 🍎 apps.apple.com/us/app/pdman...

I just tried out the CrankBoy, a Game Boy (Color) emulator for @play.date, and it's just amazing. If you own one of those yellow squares 🟨, be sure to give it a go. Here's an interview with the team behind it: magazine.fediverse.games/crankboy-an-...

The next CrankBoy release lets you choose the output mode for the headphone jack. #CrankBoy #Playdate #emulation #gameboy #retrogaming #lsdj

the truth is out: putting a game boy emulator on the playdate is exactly as rad as you think it is a little write up here: wavelengths.online/posts/the-pl... 😘

underrated thing about the playdate with that crankboy GB emulator, it has really *really* good sleep mode and battery life for its size obviously that's also from it not being backlit but getting like 2-3x more playtime than every other more micro handheld and hopping in and out quicker is neat

The Playdate can finally emulate the Game Boy!! Here's how a duo harnessed the system's underpowered hardware to make a kickass emulator

In case you ever asked yourself: „How would Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge look in widescreen?“ #Playdate #CrankBoy #emulation #gameboy #retrogaming #castlevania
