Strangest.io's Playdate Megadrop Sale by Strangest.io and 6 others - itch.io
Regarding my content output these last couple of months, I've been very busy as full-time jobs in Mexico are around 48 hours a week most of the time and I've barely had any time and energy to dedicate to personal projects, including "1 bit wonders". I'm always looking for ways to continue and evolve the show, but a variety of factors have really slowed things down for me. I hope you understand and wish all of you the best of holidays!

I just wanna let you know that a bundle with over 13 Playdate games which aren't included in the season is available now for a very limited time on itch.io. Links in the description as always.

Hello, everyone! In this episode, we discuss the future of Playdate beyond Season 1 as Panic is now accepting pitches for upcoming games! If you're a creator interested in developing for Playdate in need of funding for your project, look no further!
We'll focus on the kinds of games and creators we wanna see on the tiny yellow handheld as well as adjustments we'd like to see on Panic's hardware strategy to reach an even broader audience.

Hello, everyone! Today, I wanted to update you on important Playdate launch news, as Playdate has tweeted the following message:
"Next week, we'll be emailing everyone in Group One to make sure your mailing addresses are valid — please keep an eye out for that.
We appreciate you, and we appreciate your excitement for Playdate!"
So, if you're part of Playdate's Group One, be sure to check your emails and get excited, because Playdate is about to get in your hands very soon.

-As you might've noticed, the last episode I uploaded was a review for a full-color pixel art game. To clear things up, the "1 minit reviews" within "1 bit wonders" episodes will ALWAYS be for 1-bit games, while long, independently uploaded reviews will focus on a variety of art styles and genres.
-For a variety of reasons, my upload schedule hasn't been the most consistent recently, but I can assure you there'll be at least one new fully fledged episode by the end of the month.
That's all for now, stay tuned!
