augustravaganza 2026 is live NOW! #playdate it's a nice big community sale to ring in the new month. 2024 and 2025 went great, and we have over 80(!) games participating this time! if you wanna see all the participating games, visit catalog on your playdate, or head to: 🟨 play.date/games/tags/o...
This is blowing up with creative, interesting games. If you see this, please take a moment to look through and wishlist any that pop for you. Finding an audience is hard at the best of times, but weirdos and freaks like us need you more than ever. Go look at these games (And also Vampirium: 1997)
Getting a lot of eyeballs at the moment, so, if you’ve also announced an indie game recently, reply here and show off your wares with a trailer. If you’re reading this later, go checkout these games and get them wishlisted (you know, just like you’ve already wishlisted Vampirium: 1997)
Heads up! We’re about to make some shifts to Playdate’s production — no, none to Playdate itself — which means a factory pause. Soon, Playdate will be temporarily "sold out”. Once we're back up, more stock will start to arrive later this year. But if you want a Playdate soon… now's the time to buy!
So, in my little #playdate game Triston, when you complete a level, it has a little throwaway feature where it shows you the name of the place you've helped discover. #gamedev #indiegames

A new Science study shows that bumble bees can position a ball underneath a fake “flower” to reach a reward, suggesting they can exhibit spontaneous problem-solving and challenging the notion that such advanced cognitive abilities are exclusive to large-brained vertebrates. https://scim.ag/4vs08dC
Here's an easter egg in the new Lego Batman that I think all of you will REALLY appreciate. It's so good, I had to make a video.
Here's some random gameplay footage of the little Match 3 town builder puzzle game I've been working on for the last couple of months. Triston is coming soon to @play.date #playdate #gamedev #indiegames #pixelart
I know, I know... AI datacenters sucking up every bit of RAM, GPUs, HDDs (and water) is pretty bad. But on the other hand, future AAA games might look cool like this, instead of chasing this endless, unsustainable bit of photorealism.
I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.
TIL about the most awesome and surely incredibly dangerous airplane concept en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airborn...
Life imitates Art again - One of the plots in @aptshadow.bsky.social 's excellent Service Model is the AI getting more and more bogged down with long and contradictory to-do lists which it can never help to resolve, but has to keep checking anyway

I'm massively proud of these tree identification pins and really hoping people will see them. Truly my most practical #SciArt so far! 🌳🌍🧪 canopyrobin.etsy.com/listing/4386...
A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain. A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones. The life of a churchwarden is a strange one...
