Just finished #Taria&Como on my #playdate. It is such a touching story with loveable characters and so much to say about the healthcare system (and how it infantilizes patients). Bravo @kiphendersonart.bsky.social thank you for sharing your brilliant world with the rest of us!!!

A well-written story about disability in a for-profit healthcare corporate hellscape. Fighting back against oppressive systems built to beat you down and keep you there, with a bright, phony smile. Fun, challenging rope-swinging platforming. Taria & Como by @kiphendersonart.bsky.social is excellent!

This is such a good episode.
(I'm allowed to say that, even though I made it, because it's mostly @kiphendersonart.bsky.social and Jesse Haugen being thoughtful and awesome, and I don't even say much!)

Also: it's the final ✨official✨episode for Season Two of the Playdate Podcast! πŸ₯²

Now really enjoying Taria and Como, the other Season 2 game this week. The platforming is fun, but the writing is almost too good at mimicking the corporate awfulness it's satirizing. I'm getting deeply frustrated on behalf of the characters in it.

yep! I think I bought a brush pack years ago? and then have been fine-tuning the brushes ever since. It's called "GP PixelArt" in my brush folder but I can't remember where I bought it or if it was free. A lot of the pixel work is masking out dither patterns I've already made.

Season 2 of @play.date games is worth it just for Taria & Como. It's great, the physics gameplay feels really satisfying and the story has me hooked. A+!

Taria & Como on the Playdate is an amazing game. A fun platformer with a great story that deserves to be on other systems too.

Absolutely killing my fingers getting collectibles now.

Taria & Como - Oh my god this is *so* good?? Its a really cool 2d platformer about a girl with a robot trying to rescue her sister from an evil corporation. Touches a lot on disability rights, how capitalism fucks up healthcare. Also has a fun swinging mechanic and very good art!!

Taria & Como by @kiphendersonart.bsky.social and team was the perfect way to end the season

It tells a straightforward story which is supported by the way you move through the world gaining back your independence as the story advances

It's a fun, at times challenging and moving game

I hear you! This is my first video game, I come from a comic book background. Definitely learning a lot from my mistakes this first time around. Just released an update that helps with some of the stagger. I hope it makes it playable for you, but understand if the game ends up not being your thing.
