As the newest recruit in secret agency G.R.O.O.V.E. you will encounter four level types in #Playdate story-driven rhythm game #AgentsOfGroove Let's recap what they are in a thread!

1) dance levels, the main type, will ask you to turn the crank and press the called out buttons in rhythm with the music:

WIP Soothsayer Remastered.
See the difference from 2023 to now.
It’s about time I ported this game.

Board (and Turn) games are such a gateway drug to theoretical CS.

A friend has been working on a Flood-Fill based game (which I'm porting to the #playdate), and I've been down rabbit holes of graph theory, SAT solvers, graph isomorphism, networkx, and much more.

Flood-it is an NP-hard problem, and has seen more than a dozen papers in the last decade.

Current plan is to build a tablebase and throw a A* search on top of that.

Can you count to 15? How about 31? Well, grab your wooden board, because Blanche has got just the game for you!

Cribbage is a game where your hand of cards is just as valuable as how well you can play them. See how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AtGhixzklY

The multi-talented Toad created several digital felt scenes for Lolife and we love them all! This here is the main cover art for the game and is full of little details #playdate #indiegame

Two Years After Celeste Classic on Playdate https://hteumeuleu.itch.io/celeste/devlog/899841/two-years-after-celeste-classic-on-playdate #playdate

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.
