i don't think my game can be blaimed for failing hardware, but i did notice recently on the discord multiple people mentioning problems with their A Button on numerous games not specifically mine. Like it was not registering button presses good enough anymore. From what i had read on discord some people applied a bit of hot glue somewhere when opening it up. Was that your fix as well ? I wonder if there is some kind of defect or a bad batch of playdates recently, because there have been more people mentioning such issues and maybe it's something panic should look at.

Btw i was not aware your played the fuze version as well, are you in the fuze discord ? At the time of the contest for fuze 4 with wireframe, i also found it a nice idea to have a bunch of games and needing to play them all after each other to get a "global" score looked like a nice way for some score competitions. Its a bit a of shame there is no wifi or scoreboards for none catalog games as i had to revert to using qr codes and not many people seem to have submitted a score for their retro carousel run yet :)

Thanks for playing the game, and i hope your A Button problem remains fixed (also hope i don't run into it :))

I think I have started to notice this - thanks for mentioning it, I'm not going crazy :)

just in case you did not see this, apparantly oppyz found out the issue, a plastic piece inside the playdate below the button got off center and was causing this, he made a reddit thread and a video about a fix for this. here's the reddit link just in case https://www.reddit.com/r/PlaydateConsole/comments/17eia3q/i_just_found_a_fix_to_...
