console_labs

We make small, finished games for Playdate: a 400×240 screen, two colors, and a crank on the side. Every game starts with one question: what can the crank be?

Console Labs is a small game production studio. We make games for Playdate, draw every pixel of its 400×240 screen in black or white, and ship each game whole: music, sound, a trailer and a press kit.

  1. one_bit

    Black or white, nothing else. Light, shadow and texture all come from dithering.

  2. crank_first

    A safe dial. A lens. A cannon. Each game starts from what the crank turns into.

  3. small_and_whole

    Short games, finished properly, with their own score and sound.
