Got a ConEd alert telling me to use less energy during the heat wave and this is all I can think about.

Pretty stoked about this one.

Finished: Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. “But that is how it is with a story. Like the tail of a Labrador. Living its life freely from the dog. Always moving. Until one day it does not.”

There's a Playdate OS/SDK update out today, 2.7.2. (Get it in Settings > System > System Update).

While it doesn't have a lot of features for players, it sets the stage for a big new part of Playdate: networking. That means developers can start writing things like—that's right—multiplayer games.

Playing: Ribbit Rogue. Slay the Spire like for Playdate? Yes!

Is there such a phenomenon as being “compulsively stuck in a picross hole?” There are other games I want to be playing - but I just can’t quit!

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.

Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Playing: Inscryption. Currently occupying my idea of what perfectly nested game design should look like. Horrible controls tho (at least on NSW1)

I thought the best thing I'd watch this week would be the Nintendo Direct about the Switch 2, but then @corybooker.com said, "Hold my bladder."

Playing Echo: The Oracle's Scroll - first few minutes of the game and the music and tone of the game seem like Link on his way to the Great Deku Tree from OoT.

Playing: Lorelei; Celeste (because : Summit)

Summit complete. A very rewarding and compact Celestelike on Playdate that didn’t ask for more than an 110 casual, non-consecutive minutes of my life. Replayable for speedruns and zero-death.

Whitewater Wipeout for Playdate has some serious California Games vibes.
