Dash Arena 1.1.0 Update released!
Dash Arena (Playdate) » Devlog
First: Thank you everyone for playing! Dash Arena is the first game I'm selling on itch.io and even though it's a tiny game, this felt like a big step for me. I'm so happy that the Playdate is the perfect place for neat little games :)
And thank you for the feedback. I received some nice suggestions for the game, most of them ended up in Version 1.1.0.
Here is the List of Changes:
- Toggle for an indicator, which shows the direction you are aiming while you are not charging a dash
- Toggle to invert the image, for higher contrast
- Hit Flash respects the Playdate photosensitivity settings
- Spamming buttons won't trigger a dash
- You can now also use the D-Pad to charge a dash
Since I wanted to make Dash Arena without a game-menu, the indicator and invert toggle are only accessible when you started the arena fight. You can access them via the playdate menu.
Have fun! :)

Hi, thanks for the update! :)
There is a minor issue with the new file: When I sideload it via the playdate website and then refresh the game list on my Playdate, it doesn’t show up as an available update.
Looking into it, the old file and the new one have a different version but the same
buildNumber
in their pdxinfo file. I think that needs to be increased to show up as an update for the game on the device.(As a workaround I deleted the old file in the sideload section on the playdate website.)
Oh, thanks! I didn't know that. I'll upload a new file with a new Build-Number
Shows up as desired with the new file 👍
Awesome! Thanks for the help! :)
