To celebrate two years of fatnose games we are releasing The fatnose games bundle! A collection of our 4 Playdate Pulp titles in one place - with 50% off both 2022's Along Came a Spider and The Crank Gym. 

***

Our debut game Along Came a Spider was nominated for Outstanding Visual Achievement in a Pulp Game, Outstanding Technical Achievement in a Pulp Game, and Pulp Game of the Year in the inaugural Playdate Community Awards 2022. 

A pocket sized, cranking, top down adventure. Tasked with retrieving an heirloom for The Monarch of The Hollow, a cunning spider by the name of Eric Nid leaves the nest and steps out into Spindleton to fulfil his quest - but the town is full of danger. Luckily, Eric isn't alone. A plucky band of memorable spider siblings can be found to aid him on his way.

Search high and low to find a path to the heirloom and crank with precision to overcome the obstacles standing in your way. There are five different ways Eric's story can wrap up, can you get back to the nest in one piece? Also available on the official Playdate catalog.

Looking to strengthen your cranking arm to tackle some of those tricky Playdate titles? Well, look no further! The Crank Gym is here - and it's going to work those arms out until you're a lean, mean, crankin' machine.

As the newest member of Cassius's gym you can run sprint sessions on the treadmill, test your endurance on the rowing machine or lift weights until you drop - all in the name of high score chasing.  With three save files available, challenge your friends and family to see who can smash the club record - with the prize on offer having your name as the holder in their trophy cabinet! If competition isn't your thing you can enjoy the relaxing yoga session on offer or help Cassius and his regulars Rita, Arnold, Nick and Kimmy solve problems to enhance their gym experience and build up your membership status. We hear three star members get a little reward. Also available on the official Playdate catalog.

NOW! The hit album series that first hit the UK in 1983 and the US 15 years later. Finally - on its 40th anniversary, it's coming to your Playdate! A stunning album to enjoy from some of your favourite Pulp Games and creators, NOW That's What I Call Pulp! is packaged in a dedicated Playdate music app with track searching, skip, loop, shuffle and scrolling track details - plus the ability to create your own custom playlist.

A year on from his daring exploits our plucky spider hero, Eric Nid, finds himself in a strange new world beneath The Hollow Tree. Waking in an all but abandoned village, Eric learns that a great darkness was sealed away behind a cave there many moons ago and the key to the lock split amongst the ant, hornet and woodlouse tribes that reside in The Valley of The Hollow. Fearing the darkness might reemerge, the spiders of the village recently set out to retrieve the pieces - but they haven't returned. And to make matters worse, mysterious spiders with lifeless eyes have appeared, intent on retrieving the pieces first and wreaking havoc in their wake. All alone, and with a dangerous land before him, will Eric be able to retrieve the key and stop the threat that promises to tear The Valley apart? The perfect game to pick up and play for a short burst or longer play session, Along Came a Spider: Valley of The Hollow lets you unfurl its mysteries the way you want to. Have you got the skill to uncover all the adventure has to offer?
