From idea to app: Introducing Stitch, a new way to design Uls - MAY 20. 2025
SpinShot is 33% off for the Playdate anniversary sale. $4
Gameplay of a dark and ominous looking tunnel environment with a block-breaker game taking place in the centre. An arc controlled by the player orbits the centre, bouncing a disc off itself, and spinning it into blocks and collecting coins with it. An explosion from the centre of the disc breaks a block of ice open, revealing a coin.
Two ARC pilots, a young woman with teal hair, and a middle aged man with a greying beard stare moodily at the viewer, as if posing for some kind of space-rock album cover. A logo for SpinShot hovers beside them. They seem unaware of it.
Two characters talk about having to smash ice to get the coins stuck inside.
A black and white block breaking game with an Arc paddle that moves around the outside in a circle, trying to bounce, bend, and spin the path of a disc in the centre that collects coins, break bricks and pickup upgrades.

The Y10K bug. In just under 8,000 years, this naming scheme will no longer work. In the unlikely event of my files still being relevant by then, computers will hopefully be smart enough to sort correctly regardless.
To sort files in File Explorer by the dd-mm-yyyy format, rename them using the YYYY-mm-dd format. This ensures chronological sorting based on the entire date, allowing for better organization in File Explorer.
