Having a partner who is also a game developer is awesome for so many reasons, but I never imagined that #Playdate (and frogs) would play a part in our engagement story. Needless to say, I said yes, and Paco & Lily is now available for free on itch for you to play too! 🥰 tkers.itch.io/paco-and-lily

I just published a small Playdate game about 2 frogs. I originally made this as a gift for @jazzie.bsky.social, but if you like the idea of hopping around a pond, you might enjoy it too! 💚

Hey all, it's been awhile since we provided an update.

We want to let you all know that the final amount of $105,711.24 USD (after fees) was received by UNRWA USA. Thank you to everyone again for your support.

And remember, the fight for Palestine's freedom continues.

Loved watching this video review of Voidblazers on the Yukkuri Playdate Channel!

“It's hard not to hope for a sequel that builds on all those rich character backstories—they're just too compelling to leave unexplored.” 🤩

We’re proud to include Voidblazers in this bundle—because while Jyn and Echo’s story is fiction, the systems they fight are not.

End oppression. Free Palestine. 🇵🇸❤️‍🩹
