  • This week, I'm taking a little detour and trying out this new game called Retro Gadgets! I explore how the game works and try and make a little recreation of the Playdate.

    That feeling when the documentation be lookin like the Sahara ☠☠☠ I'll be back to making Playdate content for my next video. Just got back from vacation, so I didn't have time for new Playdate content, but just enough to put this one together. A little bit of a different format - what'd you think?

      The structure of the video is really refreshing and the follow along approach while you discover retro gadgets the first time was really helpful to understand how everything works together. I think this is a great tutorial format.
      Also since the game is early access I can imagine as some dev of the game it could be super useful feedback to watch your steps and thoughts while doing so.
      Edit: this documentation though xD

      I have a couple videos on my channel teaching code for beginners (Learn to Program for Playdate Game Dev). Teaches Lua, which is the same language that Retro Gadgets uses, so maybe you could check it out.

      @@BloodyDeadCat Haha unfortunately that doesn't help. The technical challenge is not getting it onto the mobile device, but rather having to write your own emulation software for the Playdate. Simulator is closed source, so you can't just copy paste it. Even if you could, there's probably tons of challenges with running it on a different platform.

    • @SquidGodDev
      @SquidGodDev  Год назад

      Sure. I have two videos on my channel that can help with that. Learn to Program for Playdate Game Dev part 1 and 2. The title is a bit misleading - it teaches Lua in general, not just Playdate development, which is the language used in Retro Gadgets. I also have a short book that teaches Lua for complete beginners as well that goes more in depth than those videos: squidgod.itch.io/lua-for-game-development
