An important addition to this: Crop and Claw 2 will also be getting a macOS release, for #macgaming. SteamOS+Linux will be first-class as typical, as Steam Deck and RG handhelds are still primary targets. Windows build will exist.

Finally made a video form of some 101 for gamedev on Anbernic, TrimUI, G350/R36S, whatever with Portmaster for gluing the mess together. $400+ for hot new game console or $100 for your own dev kit handheld.

Also, buy Crop and Claw.
