Depth buffers have their own aesthetic... #playdate #indiedev

Having a partner who is also a game developer is awesome for so many reasons, but I never imagined that #Playdate (and frogs) would play a part in our engagement story. Needless to say, I said yes, and Paco & Lily is now available for free on itch for you to play too! 🥰 tkers.itch.io/paco-and-lily

submitted labsylle to the #playdate catalog today! i tried to put a good word in...quite a few hundred of 'em, in fact — we'll see if it gets accepted Soon™!

I'm back to working on my tower defense game for the #playdate. I started in on the UI for laying turrets #indiedev #PixelArt

Made a lot of technical things recently. But here is a level selection screen with a little visual rework #gamedev #playdate #pixelart #1bit

Here's a look at the different stages of creating the #1bit title screen artwork for Switchboard Shuffle, my #FallingBlockJam entry. I am unable to draw the same face twice so I had to iterate to make sure the art was consistent with the operator's look. #playdate #pixelart

Nuns After Midnight

I'm going to present my current Playdate-project next Monday at @indietreff.bsky.social in Hamburg. It's called 🛡️G l o o m G a t e⚔️ and it's an action RPG with reaction based fights, a node based overworld, Souls-Like elements and still looooots of missing features. But I'm getting there😅

@plante.bsky.social great episode this week. I especially appreciated you pulling together all of the interview quotes from Kojima and bringing them together to tell a story.

Excited to release a demo of Owlet's Embrace! If you own a Playdate, download it over here: strupf.itch.io/owlets-embrace I'm also moving the full release into 2026. This is allows me to realize my full vision of the game - nonlinear world, replayability, multiple bosses, fleshed out narrative!

I try not to have too many recurring subscriptions, but I've been impressed with @plante.bsky.social 's Post Games Podcast. Super interesting interviews & insights I wasn't getting anywhere else. Today's episode tipped me over the edge to becoming a member. patreon.com/PostGames Free to listen!

Finally released v1.5 of my tiny city placement game Hausbau for the #playdate. I added a high score mode and trees!!! It's available for free on itch.io! fenchel.itch.io/hausbau #gamedev

Playing with some of the new tile graphics from @craigstevenson.bsky.social. Still far from the finished look, but coming along nicely. #zyphatron #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #playdate www.bitglint.co.uk

Swapping between (B) to grapple and (B) to attack. The companion's position indicates which mode is active. What initially started as a workaround for the Playdate's constraints became a natural, intentional and smoothly integrated part of the gameplay.

okokok so: we’ve got cards. you can pick ‘em. and they do what’s on ‘em, but the best bit is: a little manicule! It picks up and drags those carriages around in an ultra computer-usage-in-a-kids-cartoon kinda way that has no business in an old-timey train game 🚂 #gamedev #playdate #hauler

Our game, Fulcrum Defender, is an arcade game that takes advantage of the Playdate's crank. Hold back wave after wave of enemies as you gain new skills and try to last as long as possible! -- I'm also excited to share the great tracks made for the game by @cherof.com!

Ooooh this sounds like just the thing for me. I believe Polygon had something like this for its biggest features for a while and I loved it. I’ll check this out!

Now we're shipping! Nine unique carriages flying down the tracks in the middle of the nonspecific desert 🏜️ The geometry and that one photobombing cactus could use a bit of tweaking, but it's running #hauler #playdate #gamedev

Fun fact, the TRMNL has a screen that is exactly 2x the resolution of the #Playdate!

"On its surface, Isles of Sea and Sky begins as a simple block pusher, but as it quickly unfurls, deeper mechanics, lore, secrets, and layers of gameplay are revealed. Dive in and explore the mysterious depths of this beautiful, nostalgic, oceanic adventure." store.steampowered.com/app/1233070/...

Wow, at first glance I honestly thought those were captures from A Link to the Past put through some kind of filter. Beautiful work.

The playdate is in its golden age.

This is insane...This team is redefining the bar for @play.date games. Can't wait!

Damn, this is gorgeous! I can't so fucking wait.
