Looking to write your @playdate game in @ziglang? Zig is a great language to use if you want the performance and control of C, but with modern language features.
Get started with the Zig-Playdate-Template! github.com/DanB91/Zig-Playda…

After 2 years of sitting on it, I've finally released my unfinished port (only 1 level) of Crystal Castles to the Playdate. Even though the repo is a bit of a mess, I hope someone finds value in it

I keep spending money to try to make soldering "easier" for me, but in reality, the issue is I just don't have physical coordination required for it

As someone who has never even touched a Commodore 64, getting this today made me unreasonably happy

After commenting out random things, it turns out specifying `type: "bytes"` in the ReadableStream underlying object was the problem. None of the things Cursor said even remotely hinted this was the issue.

Tried out Cursor to have it help solve an Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy error i've been getting on Safari when an iframe is trying to access a Service Worker URL.
It was just a series of "try this" and "try that". None of it worked. Complete waste of time.

I had no idea you could pluralize a name when 2 people have the same name

If anyone is interested, since I couldn't find anyone who has done this, I wrote a Zig version of EM_JS and EM_JS_INT

does anyone know why web browsers do not have a basic API like "downloadStreamToFile(stream, fileName, optionalSize)"?
