Beautiful game – bought on catalog. Would it be possible to add a list-mode icon to the game please? It's a shame to have such a good game missing that polished touch on the latest firmware.
Wonderful game! It makes great use of the constraints of the platform. It’s clever, funny, odd, and well designed. I do hope the next Eyeland has a save or chapter system, though, so that I’m not worried about losing progress if I have to put my Playdate down.
thank you - i'm glad you liked it. E2 is in the works, but taking longer than i thought - i was really pushing to have it done before the end of this winter, but it looks like that won't be the case ... stay tuned! ;)
Such an amazing game ! The athmosphere is bar none ! I especially love all the little touches, how much visual feedback the game gives to your actions. So, so cool! I am really hyped for the announcement of Eyeland 2 ! I'm hoping there will be some optional content in the second one to encourage replayability :D!
THANK YOU for these comments. i'm glad you liked E1 and and are excited for E2. it's been fun building it. MAKING a game is very much like PLAYING a game - lots to figure out. and thank you for the suggestion, i am working on a way to make the game a bit more non-linear.
Got my Playdate yesterday and this was the first (non-Season) game I played on it and I understand why it received so many accolades. Good fun, lightly challenging, and I'm happy to have found it. Thank you! (I started it last night and this morning, thought, "I'm going to make a map so I know exactly where I am." Got back to it this afternoon and -- as I imagine y'all know -- I didn't need to make a map. :)
Hi! Very much loved your game, and was wondering if you would like for me to translate it in Italian... my gf would very much appreciate it, and maybe some Italians too! I wrote you a pm on reddit 😊
I just want my gf to experience it as fully as I did, and if it means helping some other Italian guy/girl, well that's a bonus 😊
P. S. If you go to https://youtu.be/5HOwIVj-T-k @9:15 you'll see even Wulff Den is really impressed by your game, literally "it's one of the best experiences I've had, playing a game, all year". So yeah, you deserve all the attention in the world for this little gem 💎
This game is incredible. So polished. Just when you thought you'd seen it all, something else clever happens. I do not understand how all this was achieved in Pulp. This game is a must-play.
Majestic, loved every second of it, just finished it, immersive dialog and interesting choice of puzzles, immersive and heartwarming experience.
The lack of crank feature annoyed me a tiny bit though, I think they were three clear opportunities to incorporate the crank feature, but still fantastic game, thank you
Love it! What a great little game. Interesting characters, weird dialogue, funny, great level design. I’d really love to see more games from you. Can’t wait! Thank you.
Hi Ron, still love Eyeland. Have you received your Playdate? You helped me with a few questions a few months back when I was starting off with Pulp and wanted to send you a copy of the game that I'll be uploading soon.
It’s such a great console! So much fun. Favourite game of season one?
Yeah, I genuinely found Eyeland really inspiring in terms of what could be achieved. I played it again after messaging you and love that now I’ve made something using the same system I understand how you did so much of what you did! Although there is one section I’m still puzzling over-but won’t put spoilers here.
Can you DM on itch? If so I’ll send you the game 😊

thank you! glad you liked it - YES, the list icon on the TO DO list - but there are a few things ahead of it.
Wonderful game! It makes great use of the constraints of the platform. It’s clever, funny, odd, and well designed. I do hope the next Eyeland has a save or chapter system, though, so that I’m not worried about losing progress if I have to put my Playdate down.
Thank you! i'm glad you enjoyed it and YES,, Eyeland 2 will have an autosaving mechanism! :)
This game is stunning. When is the upcoming release?
thank you - i'm glad you liked it. E2 is in the works, but taking longer than i thought - i was really pushing to have it done before the end of this winter, but it looks like that won't be the case ... stay tuned! ;)
What a beautiful game :’)
Thank you! Thanks for playing!
Truly adored this! It’s one of my favourite Playdate games, an outstanding 1hr spent, not a minute wasted!
thanks! i'm glad you liked it!
game was super fun! Can’t wait to see what you create next!
thank you! there IS something in the works !
10/10
Fantastic game. As others have said, you've nailed a special atmosphere, evocative, drawing the player in. Bravo.
Thank you! thanks for playing!

I love this lil nugget! Really hope to see more!
First game I played through and love it!
i'm glad you liked it! there is a follow-up on its way!
Hooray! I am so glad to hear that!
If you need any playtesters 😉😂

You're welcome - I'm glad you liked it! - thanks for your comments (i would have loved to see that map)
I may still make a map one day! I'm a nerdy completionist like that :)
Curious if you have any other Playdate games in the works that we can start getting excited about? :)
there IS a new game coming - a follow-up to eyeland = bigger, better :)
Ooh, exciting news! Although I hope it's not *too* difficult! 😬
That’s awesome news! I just finished it for the first time. Loved it, it reminded me of Zelda Link’s Awakening on the original gameboy. :)
thank you for playing! glad you liked it / yeah, the zelda series is my fave!
Just got to the Endless End. What an absolute joy of a game.
Thank you - !!! - So glad you enjoyed it
happy late burfday 2 eyeland
wow - Has it been a YEAR?! - thank you! :)
Everybody: get this game. It's funny, wacky, lovable, sympathetic, surprising, entertaining and well worth the tiny price. Very cool, Ron.
Thank you - thanks for the great compliments, i'm glad you liked it !
The game is great! Relaxing simple puzzles and clear nice art, love it
Thank you! - i'm glad you enjoyed it
Great game that definitely worth his 2$.
Good graphics ( The rain, some effect impressive). Puzzles at some point are really smart and fun.
At the end, the boat float on the sea and nothing else happen. is it normal ?
Anyway : I will buy your next game for sure !!!
thank you! i'm glad you liked playing it! - and yes, that is the "endless ending" :)
Okay I though it was a bug
THe game was great. However Too bad it doesn't use the crank at all.
I can translate in French.
This game was such a delight! Thank you very much for creating it!
you're welcome - and thank you
Hi! Very much loved your game, and was wondering if you would like for me to translate it in Italian... my gf would very much appreciate it, and maybe some Italians too! I wrote you a pm on reddit 😊

VERY small change - this version includes a warning about flashing animations.
This is a Playdate must have.
I played right through in one go. What a fun journey!
i'm glad you liked it!
Hi Ron, still love Eyeland. Have you received your Playdate? You helped me with a few questions a few months back when I was starting off with Pulp and wanted to send you a copy of the game that I'll be uploading soon.
Yes! I'm glad to hear you kept at it and I can't wait to see what you've made! I've had my device for about 4 months now (group 2).
It’s such a great console! So much fun. Favourite game of season one?

Have sent it to you! Can’t message through itch it seems. Hope you enjoy it 😊
