This is a subtle change, but it required rewriting the pathfinding code for my #towerdefense #playdate game. Enemies can now trace preconfigured paths through the level. This gives me a bit more freedom to

I've really enjoyed Crankboy and have found it incredibly deep and flexible as an emulator!

In Deja Vu PD, these mugger chaps show up randomly along Peoria Street demanding your money! It's down to you whether you decide to line their pockets or chose violence...but violence always comes back around! Wishlist now: play.date/games/deja-vu/ #indiegamedeveloper #gamedev @play.date
