- Watch this video to see how, in a few days, I made a 1-bit 2D version of Minecraft for the Playdate using Pulp, a browser-based Playdate game making tool.

How do you only have 293 subscribers? This is top tier content that I would see in a much larger UA-cam channel. Good stuff.
Thanks! Glad you think so.
Very glad he has over 15k now
Wow what a throwback :)
Wow this is impressive.
Pulp is so limited and youve managed to make quite a complex game with it.
Awesome!
Thanks! I think the block placing/breaking mechanic lends itself quite well to Pulp's tile system.
The way you implement all of this in a limited game development tool is impressive!
Also love it when you're playing your own game and enjoying every moment of it☺
Thanks! The limitations definitely make it an interesting challenge.
Commenting for the algorithm.
You tempt me to begin things I lack your talent to actually finish.
I can't begin to imagine what you're doing for those who just needed a little helping hand.
Thanks! You should start on that project you're thinking of starting 😈

Alas, hebephrenia, means it's a miracle I'm typing in coherent sentences. (I'm sure my critics would disagree with my accomplishing even that much.) I know how much organization it takes to create a game someone can actually enjoy...and I don't have it.
Some very talented programmers have tried bringing my ideas to life, before, and if they can't figure out precisely what math I'm aiming for, then what chance have I got? ("I would like to create a 3d engine rendered through audio cues only. Let's call it "We're smarter than bats". If Dunning and Kruger are telling me we can't fail, then how hard can it really be?"
"Also, it's a survival horror. Quick, what's the numerical formula for "the sound of false hope?")
So, instead I'll just try to hype what you guys are doing to the moon and beyond.
And defend the Playdate whenever someone calls it an overpriced Tamagotchi.
Wow thats really impressive, good stuff man.
Glad you liked it!
Your pulp content is amazing and making my life a lot easier. Thankyou and I hope they get more recognition. Also, will you be making videos about the SDK when its released?
Thanks! Yup - I'll have an SDK basics tutorial, some other miscellaneous tutorials, along with lots of dev logs. Stay tuned!
How am I not subscribed this is great content, let me fix that
Haha thanks!!
Super nice work & high production value. Keep at it !
I love that use the Playdate because its very underrated
Love your videos! I have some basic coding knowledge and I've been looking for an entry point to making my own games. Watching your videos has got me really excited to try playdate pulp and the SDK. I'll have to preorder the device soon, keep it up!
Thank you!
This is really quite impressive, your videos are indispensable!
Man you're so good, and this video is gold, props for real!
This is a certified SquidGodDev classic
No doubt no doubt
we have minecraft and minicraft, so this should be called… Microcraft!
This is epic I’ve been wanting a a play date for awhile if I get one I would definitely try to get this
I really wish it had a backlight. Sometimes I find myself reaching for the playdate and then changing my mind knowing the lighting has to be perfect
I don't find it to be too challenging to find some decent lighting, but you're right it def isn't ideal. Though I suppose there is a charm to being able to use it very bright conditions where other screens are hard to see.
Notches ludum dare games are super underrated. Almost makes me wish he hadn't been the one to create minecraft so we could see more from him.
Are there other Ludum Dare games from him? I think I'm only aware of Minicraft, but I would be interested in checking out the other ones if they exist.
With c and c++ u have memory management with that u can access hidden stuff and make your own api
Bro that is super sick. I might make a game for that to.
Thanks! You should - Playdate development should be pretty fun and the new SDK just got released so you can make more advanced games now.
i am so surprised this dude only has 741 subscriber underrated channel
Thank you! Means a lot!
@@SquidGodDev no problem
woah
How does this only have 350 likes!?!? That’s criminally low
Haha thanks!
Nice!
u knw whats more interesting? if u switch the "you win" atfer reaching a certain dept in the caves to a new biome, reaching dept 20 ie will transport u to a new area then the entrance cave u just exited crumbles and u find new caves to mine in repeating the cycle until u reach the "nether" and fight a "ender dragon" then u finish the game with credits and all
That does sound more interesting! If I put more time into this that would be a fun addition.
Your content is increadible and is amazing to watch. You should have way more subs because your content is great. Could you do a tutorial for a simple fnaf style game in pulp please
Thanks! My content pipeline is a bit backed up at this point so I don't think I'll be able to fit in that tutorial for you, but the Playdate forum and the Playdate Squad discord server are both very active and I'm sure there are people who would be willing to help you there when you run into any issues.
amazing and inspiring! :D
you should so like a mario kart game and use the crank as a steering wheel
That's a great idea! I'll definitely try that out at some point - thanks!
very cool! will you continue work on this? in pulp or the SDK since it was release.
Thanks! No this was just a one off project - I'm going to be working on different SDK related projects next!
@@SquidGodDev sounds good!
Minicraft! I remember being jealous of my friend’s windows phone because he could play the game on it 😆
Is this game on your patreon?
Nope it's just available for free on itch io. Should be a link in the description.
Could you imagine trying to make a game similar to Pokemon on Pulp? That would be so difficult and most likely impossible
I wouldn't say impossible - I think it is for sure possible. But, it would definitely not be easy.
Sick!
Can you do a Crank Tutorial in Pulp?
you're nuts
I do love me some cashews
Bless you
In the name of the gods in every religion ever conceived, PLEASE improve the game!
It’s too fun, please don’t abandon it.
-Saving
-Resetting
-Doors
-more room/space to build
yea
I hope it allows you to make and ad music
Yup! Pulp has a built in music creation tool, or you can use your own music tracks if making a game with the SDK. I just didn't have time/don't have much experience making music.
The sprites and text might be too small to see on the actual console
I ended up testing on device later on. It's not bad
Do you think it‘s possible to create a sim-type game with pulp, like a virtual aquarium or a very basic version of SimCity?
Yeah definitely! I saw that someone was making a battle tactics game in Pulp similar to something like Advance Wars, so I think there's a lot of room to be explored on what's possible with Pulp.
@@SquidGodDev I lowkey want to create something similar to SimEarth, I‘m just scared it will be too complicated
@@manospondylus4896 If this is one of your first games I would definitely recommend starting off with a smaller game. Best to build some smaller projects to build confidence/get good experience so your bigger projects can be more successful!
@@SquidGodDev You‘re right. I‘m thinking of instead starting first with a sort of gardening game where you raise plants and dinosaurs. Kinda like a pocket version of Viva Pinata
Do u by any chance think of making stardew?
XD
Haha maybe if I had 4 years to build a game full time :)
@@SquidGodDev lol
Too gud content though
Guys help where 1 game in a its video
Can you update it?
No plans to, but the source code is available in the description so if you're feeling up to it you can add your own updates
How do you set up the crank?
Do you mean how to set it up in Pulp? I used event.aa to get the absolute angle of the crank and checked what angle it was at to decide which item was selected. You can check out the source code in the itch.io link in the description.
Don't you kind sir mean MiniCraft?
Mentioned it in the video, but I put Minecraft in the title cause it's more catchy 😅
