I loved this episode of the Playdate Podcast and wanted to share the soundtrack because its amazing: jessehaugen.bandcamp.com/album/taria-...

Jesse Haugen blended the cello mentioned in this clip and its prevalent throughout the whole experience.

Just finished Taria & Como for the #Playdate- an amazing physics-based platformer w/ an all-Black cast w/ characters who have disabilities and tics prominently & proudly addressed! So glad to see #indie #games represent a broader, #inclusive audience in ways AAA games fail to again & again. #gaming

Just finished #Taria&Como on my #playdate. It is such a touching story with loveable characters and so much to say about the healthcare system (and how it infantilizes patients). Bravo @kiphendersonart.bsky.social thank you for sharing your brilliant world with the rest of us!!!
@play.date

Thanks Tony!

Gameplay GIF of "Taria & Como" for the Playdate handheld console.

A well-written story about disability in a for-profit healthcare corporate hellscape. Fighting back against oppressive systems built to beat you down and keep you there, with a bright, phony smile. Fun, challenging rope-swinging platforming. Taria & Como by @kiphendersonart.bsky.social is excellent!

congrats on the pizza

Thanks for sticking with it!

Taria & Como received a little patch that encompassed some of our podcast feedback, and it's better now!

Scoring the video game, “Taria and Como”! YouTube video by Jesse Haugen

Deep dive into the score for Taria & Como: www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7qu...

This is such a good episode.
(I'm allowed to say that, even though I made it, because it's mostly @kiphendersonart.bsky.social and Jesse Haugen being thoughtful and awesome, and I don't even say much!)

Also: it's the final ✨official✨episode for Season Two of the Playdate Podcast! 🥲

Now really enjoying Taria and Como, the other Season 2 game this week. The platforming is fun, but the writing is almost too good at mimicking the corporate awfulness it's satirizing. I'm getting deeply frustrated on behalf of the characters in it.

no but really im glad you're frustrated haha
