Blippo Plus

Several years ago I pondered what Blippo+ might be. At the time, it was a yet-to-be-announced project from Panic for the Playdate. In the years since, it's clear what Blippo+ is... sort of!

If you've never watched the proper trailer, I suggest you do so now. Maybe even make the effort to do so inside the context of the official site, which is quite nice. If it didn't click, Blippo+ is a series of TV stations. Not on demand content, just streaming content that you can tune into. Funny that in 2026, linear programming is novel and interesting.

But it's clearly not just any ole content. Tho I've never watched a frame of any of the shows, I am fascinated by what they've put together. I watched this behind the scenes mini-doc about the project and am completely fascinated by it. The creators describe it as "a TV station beaming into Earth for the time being," "a rip in the time-space continuum", "a six hour science fiction movie disguised as a television network, disguised as a video game." I've been sleeping on getting Blippo+ into my life but I think it's high time I change that.
