Zipper is a great little game on the Playdate, perfectly short with a quick gameplay cycle. Fun for folks that appreciate tactical one vs many combat - in a way it turns into more of a puzzle game than anything.

Environments were fun to explore, and once you get a lay of the land, replays turn into optimizing your runs for the best possible score.

Game design does a good job at keeping you on your toes and throwing new mechanics at you that are fairly self-explanatory (plus there's usually a little dialogue to support enemy fighting styles for tutorialization).

Art style and SFX are all great too, looks great on the monochromatic Playdate screen.
