Blippo+ is a distinctive creation for Panic's Playdate, blending gaming and television. The game allows users to explore an alien planet through a cable TV guide interface. Developed by musicians Jona Bechtolt and Claire Evans of Yacht, the concept arose during the COVID pandemic, bringing forth a season of interconnected shows. The goal was to create an immersive experience rather than a traditional game, showcasing the Playdate’s capability of video playback and live streaming, making every user tune into a shared program weekly.
The bizarre fever dream of Jona Bechtolt and Claire Evans of the music band Yacht emerged in the wake of the COVID pandemic, as a creative outlet for storytelling.
Blippo+ isn't exactly a game in the traditional sense but a window into the alien planet of Blip, providing a unique viewing experience through an EPG interface.
