Lumon is proud to share with you its play.date version of the Macrodata refinement terminal. No reason to stop tracking those scary number while walking in corridor with your portable device.
Jokes aside I've spent sometimes today doing a play.date reproduction of the terminal featured in the series Severance (Macrodata Refinement · Severance Wiki). I found the aesthetic of the series matching the simplicity of the play.date , so why not?
Haha this is really neat!
I haven't seen season 2 yet, but do we know how the macrodata refinement is meant to actually work? or is it still a gag point like in season 1?
Thanks for working on this, as a fan of the show I was very pleased to be able to use my Playdate to work towards cold harbour!
If you were to take this further, it would be nice to have the interaction closer to what is shown on the show whereby the numbers magnify as a cursor rolls over them, and those that are significant become larger still. This video is quite long but has many closeups of the interaction design: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRnDYB28bL8
This project was a weekend long project, implementing the same behaviors as in the series would imply much engeenering and maybe more controls to distinguish both search and catch state of the program.
