Why We’re Excited
We love the Playdate handheld and the experiences that are available to play on the little yellow handheld, but getting the titles in additional places for more players to discover them is amazing. We hope that this trend continues and joins Blippo+, Summit: Steps of Solace, and others on other platforms. Plus, who doesn’t love a nostalgic lo-fi action adventure?
