Hi All! 

We're on the eve of the release of Off-Planet Dreams on Playdate Catalog, so I wanted to drop back in here for a bit of an update. 

OPD and 1-1(bit) started as two game ideas, then became one and in a sense are separating back into two. The levels in the current demo actually comprise the first world of Off-Planet Dreams. I've tutorialized them somewhat with the new Peek and Paint mechanics in OPD. The the game builds substantially on the platformer gameplay and.. goes places as shown/alluded to in the trailer above.  The reason I initially posted this demo - which includes the source data.json file - is because I built the full game off a similar demo project shared by Nicknack on the Playdate Squad Discord. I left that source in so others could load it into Pulp and see how they can build their own smooth-movement platfomers for the system. 

So what's next? After I get a little distance from the release of Off-Planet Dreams on Catalog, I'll be revisiting this demo and adding in some additional Community-made levels. I'll also be cleaning up the source so it can truly be a learning tool for folks to play with and maybe build their own entire game off of! 

I really took the gameplay in some different directions in Off-Planet Dreams. I hope you are able to give it a playthrough, enjoy all the new mechanics and.. Wake Up. I'll be back here down the line, when the new source is ready!
