Thank you for creating this - it's cool! One piece of feedback - it may be worth experimenting with font size and screen layout. Everything is pretty small, even after changing all settings to Large.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it!

I'm currently working on a small update that, among other things, will increase the size of some of the UI.

Should be ready in a few days. Thank you for the feedback!

I've got everything turned up to large and it's very fiddly. Maybe I need new glasses, or shouldn't play at the end of the day...?

I'm really sorry to hear you're struggling with the size of the game.

Unfortunately, due to the size of the screen, I can't make the cells any larger without making the puzzles smaller.

Please feel free to apply for a refund if you aren't happy with your purchase.

No that's ok. I just need to be in a very well lit area. (and I will get my prescription checked!) I suppose a way of making the puzzle zoom in and our (like pixelogic on iOS) would be really good. But I doubt that's an easy solution! :)

Yeah, the game isn't really built for that unfortunately.

The game was almost entirely built before I even got my hands on an actual Playdate. I've definitely learnt a lot about the limitations of the screen size with this project and I will take what I've learnt in to my next project.

I'm thinking of releasing a demo so people can decide for themselves if they feel it's a problem. It personally doesn't bother me when I'm playing, but you're not the first to make similar comments.

Thank you for your support and understanding.
