So far I’ve been unsuccessful at reproducing the problem, so if you have a moment, please let me know about the following two things:

  • Do you have a fresh Playdate (about 3 months-old or newer)? There might be some problem with the newer units I’m not aware of, so I’d ask someone with another new unit if they see the problem, too.

  • Do you sideload the game unzipped? (Some browsers unzip the download by default.) If so, please try uploading it in a zip and let me know if it helped. (I’m quite reaching with this one, but perhaps… I never know ;-))

There might be something else I’ll realize only later, so I may get back to you soon. Fingers crossed (for both of us :)), I hope you’ll be able to enjoy the game soon.

Yes, I received my playdate last week. It might be a series B playdate with the different chip, not sure about that. I sideloaded it using USB (unzipped onto the memory disk Games folder, which worked fine for the other games), but I’ll try it again via the PlayDate website.

Thanks!

Ok by sideloading using the Playdate website it runs. Must have been some error during download or copying then, sorry.

Thanks for trying these out! It’s still weird but I’m happy that it might have been just a coincidence (perhaps some problem with a case-(in)sensitive partition or just a borked copy). I hope that you’ll enjoy the game :)

To the potential future fellows who discover this thread while googling the same problem: let me know about it, please! :) If it happens more frequently, I’d like to know about it and fix it.
