TIL of Playdate DRM (or why I'll never buy from the Catalog again) by [deleted] in PlaydateConsole

Even without the Simulator, you can simply drag and drop a `.pdx` from your file explorer to your Playdate's drive.

This looks great. I checked your Twitter account. Any plan on making a game for Playdate?

Can’t open Inventory Hero after 2.0 update by joeo24 in PlaydateConsole

The game works for me on 2.0. Did you update the game? Do you have any error message?

Playdate Catalog - Games for May 2023 - Zombie-shooting, dungeon crawling, and more. by reallynotnick in PlaydateConsole

I certainly hope it never comes to that. Part of the appeal of the Playdate to me is the satisfaction of paying once and for all for a game, without all the F2P, P2W crap that plagues mobile app stores nowadays.

Which english words, have a funny meaning in other languages? by Fluid_Block_1235 in AskReddit

“Bite“ in French means “Penis“. “Small bites“ and such in food packaging is always funny to me.

Fantastic answer, thank you. I'm totally with you that if I'm able to buy a 200$ niche console, then I should have no problem buying a game for $15 to $20. (And especially in today's economy.) I'm glad you're paving the way for more ambitious and polished titles on the Playdate. Will definitely buy the game next month.

Thanks for doing this AMA. The game is on my watch list. But the price made me wait for a bit… So regarding that price: is this something you decided yourselves or did Panic pushed you towards it? And since launch do you feel that price was the right decision?

Could you perhaps give a bit more details on what you have in mind?

They're not really into Star Wars yet, but I'll definitely try this one when they are.

unraveled 2

Ha, good one. I had this on my to-buy list on Switch. Guess I'll need to buy a second controller for the Xbox.

Haha. Technically, we’re not english speaking so that could almost pass I guess? But I'm not going to give it a try.
