Well, we have a so called bundle mode that allows packaging GB games as quasi native Playdate games. You can find more info in our repo.

If you have an further questions I’m on the GB Studio and Playdate Discord (@stonerl) you can DM me there or join our dev channel.

@2thinkds.bsky.social Sorry for the unsolicited message Maybe you have seen that Inspector Waffles has been released on the playdate Catalog.

bsky.app/profile/play...

Would you be interested in bringing Glory Hunters to the Catalog?

Inspector Waffles Early Days was already available on PC, Switch, Xbox, PS5 and of course Game Boy Color.

You can now add the Playdate to the list! 🤯

I'm so proud this port exists, on one of my favorite handheld consoles. Thanks a lot to @panic.com and the CrankBoy team to make it happen ☺️

CrankBoy is not only a great Game Boy emulator for Playdate, but the fact that you can mod ROMs to use the crank makes it a must-play @stonerl.bsky.social #indiegaming #emulation #playdate guiltygamer.com/i-took-playd...
