Get Carter is a favorite of mine; how did I not know about this?

Ayy, Pomo Post is super cute! Cool to bump into a dev on Lemmy.
I love that the Playdate is inspiring people to make tools that are also beautiful and fun like a good toy. The whole system makes me just plain happy :)

Yeah, being a niche product without the economies of scale elsewhere in gaming makes the price really awkward. My hope is that will improve over time if the install base keeps growing.
I use mine just about every day, I’ve been fully obsessed with a game on multiple occasions, and I’m excited every time there are new things in the catalog. Easily worth full game-console price for the joy I’ve gotten out of it. But, that doesn’t really help anybody else, I know.
It really is a lot less of a gimmick than it might seem. The final game of the first season is a shockingly polished gameboy-zelda-style adventure that I’ve played start-to-finish more than once.

He’s absolutely right! He’d be violating a trademark, not copyright.

Much less practical to show off your skull coloration when you’re trying to get laid.

Just plain old blue electrical arcs.
On the other hand, Cherenkov radiatiation is only indirectly related to criticality. It comes from any particle moving through a medium, generally water, faster than light travels through that medium. A luminous sonic boom of sorts! It’s associated with criticality because those are the contexts where it happens often enough to actually be visible.

Mercury-based diodes both look way cooler and are way less spooky than garden variety semicondictor diodes.

Oxygen ravages electrons all day at the end of the electron transport chain and nobody bats an eye, but you steal one pair off some DNA and everybody loses their minds!

This is part of what I love about the Playdate.

As in the gore makes more sense in a game than a show, not that the games lack gore.

That’s essentially the table saw motto, which is why sawstop is such an amazing piece of technology.
Still for-profit assholes, but they did solve a very real problem that’s always been there.

Work Time Fun is a sort of strung-out Wario Ware that I really enjoyed back in the day. If you like minigames, trinkets, and grinding, then check it out.
