Watching Tenet on Playdate would make Nolan and David Lynch proud
So here’s what Nolan meant when it had to be seen in a theater: mind blown
See Tenet above Playdate is a bold move. One might even venture to guess that Christopher Nolan might go crazy for it!
Twitter user jkap manage to get the movie working on the device, it’s not just a hilarious comment about Nolan’s insistence on forcing people into the cinema; but they also use a unique aspect of Playdate to really enhance the movie.
The best part? This is really an interaction, very Tenetsame experience as with Playdate. By using the crank, jkap can control the movie, similar to a timeline gimmick in the story itself. Maybe you can even hear the sound properly right now. Remember when? Fortnite Nolan’s films featured in the game due to a “phone call” with the director? The past two years have been strange.
Play Tenet on Playdate and video in general, jkap notes: “I was working on a custom thing for a few hours and then I realized that the SDK has built in video playback (recorded with minimal documentation) with custom binary format.” You can find more information on how to access the SDK [software development kit] this.
finally going to track down Tenet the way chris nolan intended. What an amazing movie. pic.twitter.com/WOj8erl5WS
