Been working on some ui stuff lately! Thought it would be funny if an old-timey printer actually 'prints' your score (and maybe a few other things)

Hey #PitchYaGame people 👋 Here is my game

It's a pocket-sized, 1-bit action RPG/Dungeon Crawler exclusively for @play.date 💛

We can finally talk about this secret cheat code hidden in more than two dozen #Playdate games! For the last few years we've been quietly encouraging devs to sneak RUBDUBDUB into their games. Now we're excited for the community to discover where the code is hidden 🕵️ playdate-wiki.com/wiki/RUBDUBDUB
RUBDUBDUB
RUBDUBDUB (right-up-b-down-up-b-down-up-b) is a secret cheat code hidden in multiple Playdate games. Many uses of the code are still to be discovered by the community and developers are encouraged to continue adding the code to more games.
