rae

only about one day left to pick up my games (and a whole bunch of other extremely cool ones) on sale!!

here are some links:
rowbot (big n' cool)!! play.date/g/rbr
hexa (new update)!! play.date/games/hexa
lunatrix (first sale)!! play.date/games/missio...

more games: play.date/games/tags/o...

Screenshot of the beginning of a "play.date/promo" URL. The first part of the code says "FUQS".

i just got my freegame keys for cloudburst in — they probably expected me to hand this one out, but unfortunately i don't give any FUQS

who could resist the allure of shapes!

oh wait, i do actually have something i can share: music!

still very much a beginner when it comes to songs, but i at the very least feel like i can actually get ideas down in a way that kinda sorta represents what's in my head

pesto's an ambitious project, and i'd love to do a full OST for it?

it's a real "the name of this game would ruin it" situation LOL. happy to share more where i can, for now

actually a massive shame that these screens
1. look better with the incriminating info inside, trust me,
2. are now so revealing that i can't even show them anymore despite having made 'em way nicer 🥲
just imagine i posted some super juicy menus here i guess

Options menu in a black-and-white video game, with a vertical list of options at a bit of a tilted angle. The played is hovered over "Sound Effects", and has them enabled.

i can't even show this options menu in motion or else it'd give too much away

🌿 have to remove some incriminating graphics, but... title screen for pesto? pretty happy with how i accomplished this scrolling animation (using a lerped number to create what looks like a smooth scroll), and also trying out using the VCR "pause" filter from the SDK for a visual 'nope' effect

Excited to share my work on the reversible cover for the Scott Pilgrim EX physical release!!

Lotsa empty space in that image, who else could be there I wonder 👀???

my games are in this, btw!

pick up HEXA, which just got an update, for $5!

pick up rowbot rally, a racing game i put a ton of love into, for lucky $13! i bet you'll love it too :3

plus, get first in... line? for $3, bona fido for $3, traffic jam for $4, and mission lunatrix for $6 (first sale!!)

hell yeah o7

Flat, bubbly promotional poster with a yellow background and green accents. "2025 Playdate Community Augustravaganza! Over 60 games on sale, across all genres and styles! Runs from August 1st to August 7th, pacific time." There's a link to the catalog sale page, and a variety of Playdate game thumbnails lining the bottom of the frame.

the second installment of the playdate community sale, augustravaganza 2025, is here!! over 60 titles, on sale all week!

head to play.date/games/tags/o... to see what's on sale — something from your wishlist? something you've never even heard of? — and pick up some new games to ring out the summer!

topical: for me, spectrum blocks it as a "suspicious site" (mac/iOS safari)

i was talking about it in the catalog chats! panic's server and the squad. is there anywhere else you'd think to look for announcements like these?, cuz i can be there too hahah

the urge to make something happen in august is too strong for any playdate developer to resist /j

just watched hundreds of beavers blind — oh my god how did i miss out on this until now. the best way i can describe it is "weaponized comedy". just recurring bits taken to the absolute extreme and it's hilarious the entire time

boy do i

A screenshot of video game 'Time Flies' in the Playdate Simulator. A very small fly hovers in a room with a large chair and phonograph.

literally programmed this single room just for the bit LMAO

@timeflies.buzz isn't on playdate, but i can take matters into my own hands /j

orz
ok google plane ticket to LA with one week's notice /j

read the patch notes: rae.wtf/blog/hexa-ma...

counterpoint: if i do all of them *simultaneously*, it will either
• cancel out and make me the luckiest person in the world
• vaporize me into a mist

and i'm willing to take my chances

Mission LunaTrix — Playdate: The Unofficial Website Do sick trix on the Moon

It's time for Mission LunaTrix on Playdate Unofficial, which is a game about doing skateboard tricks on the Moon. (By @rae.wtf) www.playdateunofficial.com/the-games/mission-lunatrix

HEXA for Playdate Board the helm of Starship HEXA, and conquer the universe the only way you know how: shapes.

if you don't have the game, you can pick it up here!: play.date/games/hexa

from september 8th, the base price of the game will be going up, from $7 to $8. i've added a Lot since launch, and i feel like this makes sense to do; but i also wanna give advance notice.

thanks for playing and supporting!

are there any bluesky clients* (web/iOS) that hide follow counts from profiles? i've been getting back into that awful awful twitter habit of obsessing over that type of stuff and i'd like to kick it to the curb if possible
*bluesky's one of those things that has clients right...?

new update for HEXA is in testing now, and should be available in #playdate catalog within the next few days. featuring the long-awaited custom mission creator!
