I want to make a game for the #Playdate but I don't know how to make games.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Maybe I'll figure it out one day.

Here's a quick look at the title menu in Lolife. There are three separate save slots with shared awards, ranks and codex progression. This screen is also where you can enter any cheat codes! #playdate #indiegame

Here's what happens if you already have the sock. No real branching dialogue, but you can have conditional lines.

Now that I finished making my #roguelike for #7drl2025, I can finally resume work on my #Playdate pulp project, which is to make a roguelike.

I finally managed to get a spell selection menu that I'm happy with, which has been a roadblock for the longest time.

Looks like something got delivered! #HELLEVATOR #playdate #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #videogame

for any LA locals, i'll be showing the current game at a local show on 4/12

Yours isn't the only adventure that can come to an untimely end! We've packed Lolife with small details and secrets to discover #playdate #indiegame

It might not sound like the sort of game a friendly raven like Blanche would play, but Spite & Malice is one of her favorites!

A simple game of stacking cards, familiar to players of solitaire classics like Klondike. See how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzXA0GwqMoc

You can learn new yoyo techniques from the ancient scrolls.

This thread is a mixed bag of @playdate news:

The price of the console is going up in future but you can buy refurbished hardware for a discounted price or grab a console NOW at the existing price

I like my Playdate. It's a very fun handheld console to use and I really admire that @panic ventured into that space.

Shout out to Ratcheteer! On the Playdate, Zelda-like dungeon crawlers aren’t common, so I’m glad to finally check out this gem from the Season 1 pack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSEJ1MGSTWE

Timer tiles v2. You now have to activate them using a trigger.

Panic is selling refurbished playdates now, I wonder if I could pay them to just fix the screen on mine. I need to look into it later when I have time.

There is always more than one way to make progress in Lolife. Want to get in this castle? Show the guard some documentation, find a way to crank open the portcullis, or simply break down the gate. Or you could give up on the main entrance entirely and look for another way in! #playdate #indiegame

What is a retro open world? In Lolife there are no waypoints or quest markers and the world is fully explorable from the very start, but various obstacles and enemies will naturally guide the path you choose to take #playdate #indiegame
