Playdate link badges

We love seeing all the wonderful creations the community has made so far. It brings us so much joy to see your excitement!

When promoting your Playdate game or tool on your website, in print, or anywhere else, you may wish to feature Playdate branding to make it clear what platform it is for. Instead of using the Playdate logo, here are some graphics to use as links to your game.

Playdate Badges

  • The “Play on Playdate” badge should be used to link to Playdate games, wherever they’re hosted. Ideally this will be a page with more information about the game.
  • The “Only on Playdate” badge should be used to link to a game available exclusively on Playdate, and not on any other platform.
  • The “Download for Playdate” badge should link directly to a game download, ready for players to sideload to their Playdates.

Playdate Glyph Image

  • The glyph images of the Playdate can be used to label Playdate-related games, products, and projects.
  • The yellow glyph image should be used on very dark backgrounds.
