That looks like a great little game!

. I didn't want to spoil thousands-of-years-old storylines for folk who may be unaware of the plots :oops:

Orange that game looks genius!

Hello... Daedalus. I hope my escape was entertaining to watch.

Six new games have been added to the Catalog!

I have a credit in one of the newly released catalog games, ART&, as I contributed a minigame in the form of an in game arcade cabinet :toot:

EDIT: Trailer here, skip to 1:10 for a little bit of the platformer I made

Tremendous stuff, Orange! If I had a Playdate I'd definitely be checking this out; ART&.. More looks very cool and I like the idea of viewing the exhibits; especially your Tile Hill :-)

Your character, Bop, is a little floating eyeball enjoying the new exhibits. As Bop, you will wander through the gallery, talk to patrons, visit the giftshop and explore the grounds!

Happy birthday, Playdate! It's great to see the quirky system doing well!

Catalog has been updated with a third raft of new games.

There's a good pace of catalog additions right now, hopefully it'll continue past "catching up" with the top games already released pre-catalog (I've already played some of Legend of Etad for example).

OS software version 2.0 is now available!

Tonight has been very exciting - it was the first Playdate Community Direct (which was great anyway!) and I had a reveal trailer for my game Resonant Tale included in it!

Big shout out to our very own Jezo who put together the trailer, he did a far better job than I ever could :wub:

I haven't announced a release date yet but when it's out I'll hook up anyone here who wants one with a promo code and instructions on how to play it through the Playdate Simulator on PC

Amazing work dude, so happy for you! Looks really cool.

Looks amazing!

Obviously going for a LA vibe, but surely there's room in there for a hand crank powered windmill phonogram guy section from OOT!

The thought had crossed my mind! There's minimal use of the crank though really, I wanted to keep it for a couple of memorable moments (and you can turn off the need for the crank at all in the assist options).

There's definitely some inspiration drawn from Ocarina specifically, and some other Zelda games apart from Link's Awakening. Obviously that's the big one :toot:

This looks like brilliant, well done!

Sounds great, hope the remainder of the dev work goes well - is there a lot left to do at this point?

Also yeah, great work on the trailer Jezo!
