Pushing Playdate into 3D.

Issue #5 opens 2026 with a 10-page special on how some of Playdate’s best 3D games are built. Zachary Snyder, Dale Thomas, Yamabushi Softworks, Resolvi Pro and others share techniques, experiments and hard-earned lessons from pushing the hardware further.

We also sit down with prolific creator Intellikat for a wide-ranging interview, alongside reviews, news and the continuing Learn Pulp section. And the centrepiece goodie is hard to miss: an exclusive 60 × 42 cm full map of DIORA covering all 39 levels.
