The Playdate Season One Finale – The TouchArcade Show #535

Hey, after a two week hiatus due to various circumstances, we’re back! We missed you! In this week’s episode we talk about Eli’s poor Steam Deck which has been sent back to Papa Gabe to be fixed, and the long, painful experience that the RMA process is. Then we talk a bit about the new version of Onion OS that dropped for the Miyoo Mini adding in some very welcome new features to our favorite tiny little retro handheld. We hit on the online discourse of the week before moving onto all the big mobile gaming stories of the past two weeks to make up for lost time. We finish things off by discussing the last batch of Playdate games that round out Season 1 and our thoughts on the season as a whole.
