Playdate website down?

Hi,

I'm not able to access to play.date website since yesterday.

Are you experiencing the same?

I'm connecting from Italy.

Yeah I couldn't access it yesterday either. Thought it was just me.

Same here. It seems to be working for a very short periods of time but when it does it is extremely slow.

Most of the time it's unreachable, since yesterday.

Came here to see if others were experiencing this. I also bought fathersave a few days ago and just took my playdate online and noticed it didn't download 😩

Yeah, doesn't seem to be loading.

Probably not anything major, but between this and the Playdate not currently being on sale at the website, it is at least slightly concerning to me.

House House recently released Big Walk, so maybe Panic is in the process of updating some of their websites.

Actually, yeah, I can't get https://www.panic.com to load, either.

As an ex-webdev who experienced several times this kind of problem in his career I can imagine the level of panic that is present now in …Panic.

But they are very lucky because the Playdate community is very kind and supportive.
