I Made a Game That Lets You Share Levels Using Morse Code

Uploaded September 2022 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

This week, I'm starting a new Playdate game devlog series! I'm making a Mario Maker-like platforming game where you can build custom levels, but with a twist - you can share your levels using an audio data transfer tool I've made. The Playdate currently has no networking API, so this is the only way to transfer data wirelessly. Check it out!
