The Playdate will allow games that are not part of a season to be sideloaded without needing to jailbreak it. Games are made using an SDK that comes with a simulator and debugger and works with C and Lua, which are programming languages. It is only available with the developer kit for Mac. However, in a response, Playdate said they are open to creating software for Windows, and compiling is already available, and the simulator is a work in progress.
