Steamboat Willie for Playorama
A downloadable Video
Mickey Mouse
has finally entered the Public Domain and to celebrate, I am putting out the cartoon Steamboat Wille from 1928 to play in Playorama on the Playdate!
It should be clear that I Am Not Disney! I am also not taking payments for this download. It is free of charge and will remain so. To play the cartoon on your Playdate, download the zip file from this page and put the two included files (the *.pdv and the *.pda) into the Playorama Data Folder on your Playdate. Then just fire it up in the app!
I have done no other work on this title besides dithering it and repackaging it for you.

How?
To make this work, download Playorama and Sideload it onto your Playdate. Download the Videos and copy the .pdv/.pda files into the App's data folder from your computer.
Make sure to unzip the package and just move the files! The instructions are included below and on the Playorama page. Make sure you transfer both the Audio and Video files to ensure proper playback.
Note: You can also view these on the Playdate Simulator on a computer that you get when you download the Playdate SDK. Enjoy!
