Let’s draw some pixels. Working on background art for Transfer Point for Playdate~ https://www.twitch.tv/robotspacer #Twitch #Playdate #PlaydateDev

Alright, I got a shirt that says I make Playdate software so I’m legally required to finish this game now https://www.twitch.tv/robotspacer #Twitch #Playdate #PlaydateDev

Game dev stream time, working on the Playdate version of Transfer Point! https://www.twitch.tv/robotspacer #Twitch #Playdate #PlaydateDev

Big progress on my Playdate game this week: you can now talk to the egret. The egret is not very chatty tho #Playdate #PlaydateDev

Making good progress on the Playdate port of my game! I think I have most of the inventory UI figured out now, and it feels pretty nice to play. #Playdate #PlaydateDev

I've gotten some fun replies to this question over on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/robotspacer.online/post/3loq4gkinfc22 Unsurprisingly I haven't heard from anyone that made an actual physical copy of a Playdate game (yet?), but some folks have made boxes with manuals and stickers, as well as a card game, which are great ideas! #Playdate #PlaydateDev

While it doesn’t directly convert Playdate fonts, you can upload the image file from a Playdate font, to use for the pixel data. I was able to convert mine very easily. #PlaydateDev

#playdatedev is getting network APIs 🥰

Working on my Playdate adventure game for a bit! Today’s task: there’s no egret here but I would like there to be an egret here. Let’s add interactive objects to the game engine so I can fix that. https://www.twitch.tv/robotspacer #Twitch #Playdate #PlaydateDev

Just posted another one of my short Playdate devlog videos! This time I figure how to make a nice custom transition between scenes, and handle the fun complexities of dithered patterns clashing in unexpected ways~ 🏁✨ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aePfGQ_BdM&list=PLhKtbablIXrcNw5O10poNHt2Sp-R9WwNY&index=2 #Playdate #PlaydateDev

Today I’m going to design and prototype the inventory UI for my Playdate adventure game! Live now over on https://www.twitch.tv/robotspacer #Twitch #Playdate #PlaydateDev

I thought I’d try something new as I work on the Playdate port of my adventure game: short devlog videos to share my progress! Here’s the first one, on making a scrolling text view feel more responsive ✨ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5N4CUdrTNLk #Playdate #PlaydateDev

So I wrote a useless app for the Playdate that lets you re-wrap your games :) https://gatesphere.itch.io/giftwrap

This little guy is mean. He is a sprinter, has a hot hand grenade, and really wants to make me taste it… 💥

Game Over, Man!

Time for some serious mortar fire action!! 🔥

I made more progress on my Airborne! replica for PlayDate. Still laggy and buggy sometimes, but it’s getting there…

An unlucky little paratrooper can get stuck in a cactus.

By the way, have you seen the two little guys fleeing the combat at the end of the clip, that wasn't part of my prog. Something is happening on the Grid…

#PlaydateDev #Lua #Playdate #gamedev #apple #vintage #arcade #1bit

Today I hope, I’ll have enough spare time to take care of this little guy stuck in the cactus.

It's not a good place to be hung just next to a canon. Bad ambiance.

I'm a novice in #PlaydateDev and #Lua, so I enhance my skills by attempting to recreate the classic Mac game, Airborne!, on my #Playdate.

gamedev what I have managed to accomplish so far.

🤔 Where the #Playdate community is the most active?

#PlaydateDev #gamedev

Love the Playdate that is such a cool device to own and to dev for. It’s also a great community of cool people engaged creating games and stuff with.

It’s like 1990 again when games were made for fun by and for humans and not for profit by studios like IOI

Where’s your go-to source for purchasing 1-bit sprites and tiles for your Playdate games?

🤔Do you do everything by yourself?

#Playdate #PlaydateDev #playdateSDK #1bit #gamedev

Did you noticed that your Playdate has been made in Malaysia 🇲🇾 ?

#Playdate #PlaydateDev #playdateSDK

Developing for #Playdate is so cool and funny, plus you can directly play your games on your device. Love it ❤️
