Ah good catch! Not sure how that happened haha

Should be fixed now, thanks for letting us know!

Agh, sorry about that! Yeah it would be super helpful if you could send the crash log to toadleyundercontrol@gmail.com

Always.

This is an unbelievably impressive game. I don't know any other Playdate games that have this many objects on screen that run as well as Angel Pop does.


Really love the art and music too. Feels really liminal and nostalgic, and having the music progress as you play is a very nice touch! (Hamburger song is the best haha)


Incredible work, Nnnn. You not only made an impressive game, but a super fun one too. Can't wait to see what things you make next 💚

Hope all goes well for you!!!! Thank you for playing!!

I hope to have the next update out sometime before Halloween!

It's possible I guess! They definitely aren't needed to get through the game though, so no worries.

Also assuming you're in The Reef, $150 is pretty good!! Try saving up for the next fishing line upgrade first. You'll find that it helps a ton with catching better fish 👀

Hello!! Hotspots should refresh every in-game day (around sunrise). Once you've fished at one, it'll disappear and you'll have to fish around at any spot on the water.

Wow, this update is a Hallowin in my books! This update truly makes this a game to die for! The cosmetics here really fit in with the webb and flow of the rest of the game, and it all comes together to form one big master(rest in)peace.

At $2, this game is an eerie-sistable addition to your Playdate library! It's the last game you'll ever need - the nail in the coffin of boredom if you will! So what are you waiting for?? Throw your mummy at this game, and get wrapped up in a fun time!

Fall can't come soon enough!!

You will need to sideload the file again, but your Playdate will recognize that there is an update!

(1 edit)

De-fin-itely not de-fin-ative. Another update coming post-Catalog 👀🐟💙

Resonant Tale is incredible! It hasn't even been out for a week, and I think it's my most replayed non-arcade game on the Playdate.

So so so much care and detail went into it. Everything was so thoughtfully crafted, and the game feels so smooth to go through. I'm still learning new things about it.

So many tiny details that you'd miss on your first run, and so many secret shortcuts to find, that replaying the game feels really rewarding.

I also really love how combat isn't a priority in the gameplay. In these types of games, I much prefer exploring the world and solving puzzles, than having to fight monsters in my path. And the times there is combat, it's always an encounter that feels memorable.

S-tier game! Thank you Orkn, this game is amazing!


(If you're on the fence - buy it! You won't regret it)

Wow. Hats off to you. Way to really put a cap on this game. These hats look absolutely fedorable, and looking at them makes me feel warm and fez-y.


I bought this game because it was buckets of fun, and I’d ad-visor that you all do the same!

No worries!! I’ll keep the updates going, I just don’t want them to become annoying is all haha

I really appreciate your comments!!

Thank you so much for the really kind review! Really happy/relieved to hear that you enjoyed it.

And totally fair remark on the slow downs. I’ll look into optimizing the scenery a bit and see if I can fix that final boss issue you were having!

I have!! And it’s accepted! No release date for that yet, but I’d expect it to be a few months down the road

It’s up to you!!

And yeah don’t worry I plan to keep updating Reel-istic at least for a little bit! I definitely do want to move onto something else at some point, but I won’t be abandoning this game by any means!

Hey! Yeah apologies for the daily updates here, I 100% understand that it’s really tedious to be sideloading this often (I wouldn’t want to sideload a new update every day either!). 

As for catalog.. heck yeah!! Reel-istic will be coming to catalog sometime in the future! No word yet from Panic on a release date (I think I plan to keep the date a surprise), but a catalog release would definitely be a few months into the future unfortunately.

Cannot wait to play this! Looks super super fun, and has an amazing artstyle!

At the moment, unfortunately no :(

Perhaps somewhere down the line I'll add support for it!

Soooort of??? You can hit them with your hook!


One will definitely be able to purchase this!

This game is AWESOME hahahaha

Such a creative situation - I loved sneakily trailing behind the giant! I was laughing pretty hard even at the preview images you uploaded. I love how the giant's face slowly emerges from the clouds

Little update to this: After voting is complete, I will upload a performance fix which will bring the game to a consistent 30FPS. And the water splash will have an increased radius!

(Going to attempt to get a zen mode going as well)

I'd love to return to this someday and add some polish to it!! Great feedback! Thank you Pizza :)

I kept the water splash small just for performance-sake, but I 100% agree that a bigger radius would be better (I'll just have to wrap my head around how to optimize the game haha)

YES A ZEN MODE! That'd be amazing!!

This game is so well done! Loved how a simple mechanic got increasingly complex over time, and new variations/mechanics were introduced! Also the art is AMAZING!

I also really liked how the game eases you into the mechanics by starting you off with a relatively easy level to introduce you to something new.

Very cool game!! It was an honor to be able to playtest it!

LOVE the visuals, the gameplay, the sounds/music, everything! Makes me want to train my brain so that I don't have the memory of a goldfish hahaha (it was also a blast jotting down notes though. Felt like I was a barista detective :) )

Neat game, it was really fun to follow along with it's development!

It's absolutely terrifying having the squid sneak up on you hahahaha

Such a creative concept! I loved the visuals and gameplay (and how I had to balance between controlling the engine, or controlling the sonar), and seeing all the circles ping and grow across the screen is really satisfying!

I hope you return to this some day to optimize it because it has a lot of potential :)

This game was fin-tastic! Blew my expectations out of the water! I'm now hooked on this concept!

The music, art, gameplay were all AMAZING! Your team did an awesome job!

Super creative game, beautiful art, and great story!

I'm looking forward to chapter 2 and beyond!!

Thank you so much!!

Sorry to hear that the diagonal lines made it hard to read sometimes D:

I'm totally open to suggestions on how to do that differently! The diagonal lines are there to help you see the areas still needing to be cleaned, but I do think that there could be better solutions to this issue

Thank you!!! Yeah agreed sometimes it can be hard to tell. I'm considering making B cause the unwashed areas to flash black/white for a second or two - maybe that could help? Not sure how to pull that off in code though haha
