Just finished #Taria&Como on my #playdate. It is such a touching story with loveable characters and so much to say about the healthcare system (and how it infantilizes patients). Bravo @kiphendersonart.bsky.social thank you for sharing your brilliant world with the rest of us!!!

A well-written story about disability in a for-profit healthcare corporate hellscape. Fighting back against oppressive systems built to beat you down and keep you there, with a bright, phony smile. Fun, challenging rope-swinging platforming. Taria & Como by @kiphendersonart.bsky.social is excellent!

This is such a good episode.
(I'm allowed to say that, even though I made it, because it's mostly @kiphendersonart.bsky.social and Jesse Haugen being thoughtful and awesome, and I don't even say much!)

Also: it's the final ✨official✨episode for Season Two of the Playdate Podcast! 🥲
NEW on the Playdate Podcast: can a puzzle platformer with a unique mechanic, a resilient protagonist, and a gorgeous soundtrack empower you to be a force for good in the world? Kip Henderson and Jesse Haugen tell the story of Taria and Como!

Now really enjoying Taria and Como, the other Season 2 game this week. The platforming is fun, but the writing is almost too good at mimicking the corporate awfulness it's satirizing. I'm getting deeply frustrated on behalf of the characters in it.
Favorite Playdate games so far (in no particular order):

* Mars After Midnight
* Casual Birder
* Demon Quest 85
* Fulcrum Defender
* Otto's Galactic Groove
* Black Hole Havoc

I'm running season 1 and 2 concurrently (and MAM is a catalog game)

Taria & Como is a game that looks at privatised healthcare in 2025 and says, boldly, this isn't good enough.

Playdate is a unique handheld gaming device known for its small size, retro feel, and crank-based controls. Playdate Season 2 is here, along with the latest round of weekly game releases. This season features two standout titles: Taria & Como and Black Hole Havoc. Both of these games have taken the charm of Playdate even further. Season 2 clearly shows that Playdate is not just a novelty but a serious gaming platform.

I wrote about Season Two finale Taria & Como, which deals with disabilities and the modern healthcare system in a way that is NOT subtle and should not be. www.playdateunofficial.com/the-games/taria-amp-como

Taria & Como on the Playdate is an amazing game. A fun platformer with a great story that deserves to be on other systems too.

Absolutely killing my fingers getting collectibles now.

Taria & Como - Oh my god this is *so* good?? Its a really cool 2d platformer about a girl with a robot trying to rescue her sister from an evil corporation. Touches a lot on disability rights, how capitalism fucks up healthcare. Also has a fun swinging mechanic and very good art!!

Taria & Como by @kiphendersonart.bsky.social and team was the perfect way to end the season

It tells a straightforward story which is supported by the way you move through the world gaining back your independence as the story advances

It's a fun, at times challenging and moving game
