The zip file is incorrectly formatted. You need to put all the files in the zip file, in a subfolder named Meowdiver.pdx

Such as : Meowdiver.pdx.zip / Meowdiver.pdx / All the files

In contrary to the current : Meowdiver.pdx.zip / All the files

That is… not really the proper way to sideload games om the PlayDate.

1. Rename the extracted game folder to octo-crank-playdate.pdx
2. Zip that folder, so you get a octo-crank-playdate.pdx.zip
3. Just upload it onto your Playdate via https://play.date/account/sideload/

Yes, you could still manually boot into Data Disk mode and manually do that yourself, but I don’t see why you couldn’t just upload updates the same way, except for a mistake in the buildID file. Even in that case, yoi could just delete the previous game in the sideload web page. The website tracks the different version you’ve uploaded.

The bundleID field is missing from pdxinfo.

The bundleID field is missing from pdxinfo. Also, you named your project pdx “source.pdx” ? I mean, it’s valid, but perhaps something a bit more descriptive is a tad better.

Actually getting a 413 Entity too large error on the Playdate sideload page when trying to import your game. Thankfully, I can still sideload it with the other ways (thanks for detailing the alternative methods), but you may need to try to get it under 200mb zipped. I managed to just repackaged it with heavier zip compression methods for 198.4Mo, so this could also be an easier fix. Additionally, there’s a mistake in the pdxinfo, you added duplicate entries for buildtime and pdx version which cause errors.

Impressive game. The handling of the car is just superb, perhaps one of the best I have ever played in a top-down car video game. It would be great to theme it a bit around rally cars, with a set “campaign” of hand-made tracks and set times, with perhaps even pre-recorded simple radio calls?

Where is it ?

I third the glowing issue. CachyOS (Arch Linux based) with a AMD Gpu too. I did tried the native Linux version and the Windows version to no avail. However ! The Web version doesn’t have this issue ! It isn’t ideal however as you say, so I prefer playing with the glowing artefact until something can be found about it. If there’s any way we can share rendering logs or something, tell us !

Short but fine ! Would have preferred to have the main area to be less locked on a corridor so you have a more semblance of game, instead of just a straight path. With the two houses, and no other actions and places to go, it pretty much draw the player to the other player house, either way ?

Fun game that really make you FEEL like a bird. Too bad I’m such a really drunk one at that. The controls are pretty difficult to grasp. Still fun to fool around and a nice concept.

Cute doggo game

I quite like it, and it works flawlessly on Linux via monado (Haven’t tried with SteamVR). Tested on a Valve Index.

However, a couple of points to note :

• AAAAH MY EARS obviously but outside of that, since volume settings were said to be added, don’t have song preview, just play by default when idling. I didn’t explicitly select any songs in my downloaded list when scrolling BeatSaver, but every time one of the songs finishes downloading, the song in the default position (top one by default) plays its preview.
• The selection boxes are a bit flawed, on the Linux build at least. The selection for the saber types still click the buttons under it when overflowing when showing the other saber options. The color pickers don’t have a close option, which makes it especially difficult to use when it over the apply button.
• Doesn’t seem to have any pause buttons. It would be pretty essential.

I love it. So many stupid unexpected cards to completely return the game. Pretty literally too. Will wait patently to for the release! Thought of trying to expand on other card games like Poker? That Poker opponent made me remind of what it could look like.

Differentiate Satire from hate. That’s what rule 8 does. It restricts hate content.

No, of course. The Krotchy and Kunny mascots aren’t considered as NSFW, even if their appearance is suggestive. It’s mainly in case of more graphic depiction of gore (Outside the unrealistic cartoon usage. More an issue with very extreme gore, or realistic ones), nudity and pornographic explicit content, and life-threatening content (Epilepsy, loud noises, screamers, psychologically shocking content). We know that the original games in the Postal Series aren’t really for the public of all ages, so we would rather not restrict people from doing family-friendly games. We expect people to use their common sense to not go overboard with it.

Wait, wait, wait. Would it not be Volume 7 then ?
