Playdate Simulator
The Playdate Simulator in action.
Release Date: 28 / 02 / 2022
Developers: Panic

The Playdate Simulator is a piece of software included in the Playdate SDK that allows for simulation of a Playdate, using the mouse and keyboard to control it, a physical controller, or a connected Playdate. The Simulator can be used to transfer software to a physical Playdate, debug running Playdate software, and take screenshots and video of the running software. The software runs as fast as the computer controlling it will allow, meaning that it will often run games faster than a physical Playdate.
