Cheers! The Playtiles Game Dev Kit is a bundle including a download key of the full version of the course + the Dev Kit Playtile. We will release more information soon about the details of the package and what's included, but one of the reasons why I am so excited about this partnership is because it provides a very affordable entry point into Game Boy game development with the added bonus of testing out your games using a phone and tactile button feedback.
It costs a lot of money to purchase everything required to playtest a GB ROM on real hardware - Usually, you would have to buy a used Game Boy or a Chromatic or an Anbernic etc. I love that there is now a cheaper option for younger people looking to try out game dev or less fortunate hobbyist developers and they can test their games with buttons using the Playtile and the Playtile OS on their mobile.
As an indie developer that feels the financial crunch when trying to earn enough making games, it just felt like a wonderful thing to be a part of.
