Playdate link badges for developers

Hello, Playdate game developers!

Some of you have asked about using Playdate branding when promoting your game. We wrote up a little article about this. It also includes link badges you can place on your website (or wherever you'd like) to indicate that the game is for Playdate. They look like this:

Hi!

I was wondering if it would be okay to use the “Play On Playdate” style badges with a different background colour? Seems like a bit of a grey area currently as there is no transparent version provided, but on the other hand the glyphs could be placed on top of any background. Not sure if that was intentional or not (i.e. is it “distorting the appearance”?).

For the record, I fully understand the yellow being a big part of the branding, but it also doesn’t necessarily match nicely with everything, so I was hoping to treat it like a monochrome brand mark.

(sorry for resurrecting an old post, but seems useful for posterity)
