This is great to see more resources being made for the Playdate. It is such a fun little console and the games made for it are such a breath of fresh air

I hope Panic is able to either retrofit or make a v2 with a backlight. I realized how low the contrast on the screen was after my cataract surgery and seeing details in some of the games becomes near impossible in less-than-ideal conditions.

The Sharp Memory LCD screen is opaque, unlike most other LCDs, so can't work with a backlight. It could work with a front/edge light but the results are not what you'd hope for.

How does the screen compare to the original Game Boy, or even the Game Boy Pocket?
