-You might have heard of the company [Panic](https://panic.com/) that created this since lots of people have played [Untitled Goose Game](https://goose.game/) or [Firewatch](https://www.firewatchgame.com/). Or you might have used Mac apps such as [Transmit](https://panic.com/transmit/) or [Coda renamed to Nova](https://nova.app/).

-The CEO and co-founder of Panic gave [an in depth talk](https://gdcvault.com/play/1034707/The-Playdate-Story-What-Was) about the story behind the creation of the playdate which is entertaining and informative if you would like to go deeper.

 ## Nice!

+These are some things that I enjoyed about the Playdate:
 
-- You get 24 free games (also called "season one") 2 games delievered each week until you have them all. It's delightful to see that notification light that there's new games to play at the beginning of owning this console.

 - Games aren't limited to their catalog, you can also build your own games using [their SDK](https://play.date/dev/) or side load games from places such as [itch.io](https://itch.io/).
 - The crank as an input device is surpisingly delightful and unique.
 - Most games have enhanced details. We're talking beautiful storytelling, visuals, and music.
-- This system is minimally connected to the internet to allow downloading of games, but otherwise there aren't any distractions at all like I would have if I were playing a game on my smart phone.

 - The battery life has been great so far. Marketing copy for this product boasts 8 hours when playing games and 14 days while in standby clock mode. This has matched my experience. They also use a generic usb-c charger as well, so it's likely you already have the plug/cord for it (though it comes with one).
 
 ## Oh.

+These are some things that I think could be improved with the Playdate:
 
-- You need to have good lighting when playing games. This system does not have a backlight, so if you don't have good lighting it will be hard to see the screen.
-- I'm left handed and would love to have a "lefty" version with the crank on the left side of the console.
-- Right now the only body color is yellow which is great, but I would like more color options especially when having multiple of these consoles in my house.
-- There is not a way to shut it off. It will go in standby clock mode which is fine, but I would like the ability to fully shut the system off without needing to let the battery die.
-- Right now for sound, it is wired headphones only. Looking through their website it appears that bluetooth is likely coming soon with a software update. To my knowledge the wifi chip they have in the system should also double as bluetooth, so I don't think a hardware update is needed for this.

 ## Where and how to buy
 
-I'm seeing a few resellers, but the official place to buy (and where I bought) was from [https://play.date/shop/](https://play.date/shop/).

 ## My opinion
 
-I would highly recommend buying this console. The playdate is a lovely distraction from a world full of advertisements, pop ups, and notifications.

-As a kid, I could sit for hours and play video games, but as an adult I find that I do not have much time to devote to playing video games. The games on this system are perfect for that. You pick up the console, play for 15-30 min here and there plus the controls aren't complicated...so you're not spending time trying to remember how to play the game.

 Also anything Panic creates, I know will be high quality and well thought out.
 
-Side story: Panic holds a special place in my heart. Back when I recently relocated to Portland, OR I was looking to get out of my current company and saw that they had an open customer support role. I was currently working in customer support, but moonlighting by taking night/weekend classes at a local code school to switch into being a software engineer. I went into their office and did the full interview round (including an interview with their CEO, Cabel Sasser). The next day I received the nicest rejection email from Cabel stating that they really liked me, but think that I would be better suited to becoming a software engineer that I should continue on that path.
+## Side story
 
-Anyway would highly recommend the playdate and anything that Panic creates, because I know it will be high quality in terms of the aesthetics and story telling.
