A downloadable counter

Ever wanted to be that person at the entrance of a museum, clicking away the numbers on their counter? Now you can, only better!


Use the crank on your playdate to count up and down and get satisfaction from the beautiful *click*. You can also use the 🔼/🔽 Buttons of the D-Pad for this.

Once you get going, you might wonder "what would this number be in hexadecimal?". No problem - just press ◀️/▶️ to switch the base of the counter from standard decimal to binary, hexadecimal or even sexagesimal! You know what binary and hexadecimal is, but have never heard of sexagesimal? It's basically what the babylonians used - base 60.

In the menu you can increase the cranking speed or switch to analogue mode. You also get a nice suggestion what you could count here.

Hold down the 🔼/🔽 Buttons to rapidly increase or decrease  the counter.

This is a small application I created to learn how to code stuff for the playdate.
