Do user facing Playdate games necessarily run in a single thread?

Do user facing Playdate games necessarily run in a single thread, or is threading possible? I am just asking because searching for "thread" gives too many hits related to forum threads.

We don't currently support threading in the C API either, sorry!

Thank you for the confirmation!

Just had the same question - thanks for confirming.

Is there any plans on adding support for it?

It's not in the near-term plans, but looking again at the FreeRTOS docs it might not be as impossible as I'd thought. I've filed a feature request and I'll take another look when I have time. (Which won't be for quite a while, unfortunately :confused:)
