It's still a rough prototype but shows what I want to do. #playdate

Ma #Playdate est morte lors du #live de la semaine dernière, mais ça ne m'empêchera pas d'en tenter un cette semaine avec le très bon "Soko" par @tkers.dev ! 📦🟨

Et si vous pensez qu'il s'agît d'un banal Sokoban, c'est bien mal connaître la @play.date et ses devs ☺️

Worked on something a bit less visual today: data compression for Zest. It packs the individual bits that make up your frames into bytes, which ends up halving the size of some larger Pulp games I tested this on.

Try it in the bundler yourself: zest.cool 🍋

9 games that shaped who I am

I may be late to this trend but I would love to see my #playdate pals get in on this.

Lots of important games missing from this list, but this feels like a good cross section of different stages of my life.

Cuz it wouldn't be the "deluxe" version if it didn't have a rainbow "DX" on the title screen

I think I'm settling into a decent color palette here.

I always loved the Playdate simulator's color-correction mode, which uses a grays instead of black/white.

After testing, a desaturated color palette feels right.

Still in the very early stages of the port to #godot and coloring the game.
