Playdate Podcast

I’m not much of a gamer, but I discovered Playdate by accident and I absolutely love the system. It blew my mind when I realized that the brains behind arguably some of the weirdest but insanely addictive and fun games out there, one of them being Untitled Goose Game, paired with the technological wizards at Teenage Engineering to create this modern, retro, innovative, wacky, one-of-a-kind, hilarious, ingenious, odd, and altogether awesome handheld console. The teams at Panic and Teenage Engineering, along with all of the game developers, worked together seamlessly to create one of the greatest handheld masterpieces of all time. I can’t wait for the product to finally be released to the masses (myself included), and to finally play on this technological wonder that is Playdate. Huge thanks to everybody who helped make this product, from the factory worker to the crank designer to the lead software designer. You just created the best handheld console of all time.

I don’t know what else to say other than bravo. The Playdate is an incredible unique platform but it turns out the people who have created its games and tackled its unique challenges are even more colorful. Major kudos to the host and editor, who manages to make the discussions brisk and adds commentary to make concepts even more accessible to newcomers. It’s an absolute joy and it makes me want more games for this system so that I get more episodes!

A great podcast to learn about the new console and just to learn about what development of hardware and software is like! I super appreciate that they explain concepts so I can understand what's going on. Thanks for all the hard work yall put into this!
