Absolutely! I'm on Windows, on the latest version of the simulator. I click on the game to open it, see the grid background, then it kicks me right back to the playdate home screen.
If you'd like, I can record a video for you once I'm off work!
It looks like I've managed to fix it. You can now download the latest version (1.2.2). Thank you for your patience, and again, thank you for reporting the issue!
