I started with Game Maker when I was 10. When I got into Playdate dev in 2023 it brought a flood of nostalgia back to those days that’s kept me going still 2 years later.
If you’d told me as a kid I could’ve had a HANDHELD WITH A CRANK that I could load my games onto I would’ve fainted.

💡🔬🎮 Playdate brings game design into education!
The Playdate handheld console has made a big splash in indie gaming. It can do the same in your classroom!
• Easy to create games for, whether students can program or not
• Learning-by-doing at its very best
• For elementary to grad school students

Nearly have an end-to-end experience here, so took a little time this afternoon to go to a rooftop bar and play through the whole thing.
