@neauoire @bd @mario_afk @alderwick @tendigits Any idea why this would happen on the itch.io version? I was trying to upload to a Playdate via the simulator, but it won't start in the simuilator itself...

@renaudbedard @mario_afk Oh damn, I had this issue at one time. The pdx file on itch should work on both the simulator and the device.

Let me double check, you did get the 71mb Playdate file, right?

@neauoire @mario_afk Oh geez, I think it's just macOS shenanigans. It interpreted the .pdx folder as a file. On Windows it seems happier!

@renaudbedard @mario_afk aaah! excellent. What does it looks like on mac? Do you think if I zipped a folder with the zipped pdx file in it, that would be better?

@neauoire @mario_afk Actually I'm seeing now that it's a "package", so it is a directory with a funky icon and I can expand it. The latest Playdate simulator still isn't happy with it, not sure why... maybe a chmod thing? Is one of these files supposed to be executable?

@renaudbedard @mario_afk I honestly don't know, for me on linux, I feed that thing to the simulator and it lets me upload it to the device.

@neauoire @mario_afk alright well, no idea why it's unhappy on my old intel macbook, maybe I'm doing a weird manipulation too

@renaudbedard @neauoire The simulator can't open a PDX file that was compiled on Linux if you are using a Mac or Windows machine. But if you manage to pass the game through the web interface or using the mount as data disk option should work!
