AHMedia Pocket Deck
The AHMedia Pocket Deck!
A fictional nostalgic device for your fictional pocket.
There's no hidden narrative, no hidden secrets. It's just an interactive thingy to poke at.
----
Notice: The Audio Cartridges are a little loud and there's no volume control inside the program.

This was originally made for Pink Decker Jam in Decker.
Sound Effects made with sfxr.
Music clips borrowed affectionately from Maybe Happy Ending and the garages.

This is so cute! I need one of these IRL so bad...
Thank you both so much for playing and your kind words :D I really enjoyed getting to see your reactions
This is so cool. I'm biased because I love handheld stuff (with buttons), and the design and "tactility" are awesome.
Gotta have buttons and tactility! :D Thank you for checking it out, loke!
ohemge, a maybe happy ending reference
I was listening to the cast album a lot while making this. :') A lovely show.
I love how tactile it feels, like some real objects in front of me 😊 The dedication and love put in it is very perceivable!
That's exactly what I wanted to make! :'D Thank you for playing
the pink! the sounds! the nostalgia! ahm you've done it again. this is adorable lol
:D Thank you so much for coming and checking it out!
wow! It’s so cute and nostalgic
Thank you! And thank you for checking it out!
this. is. AMAZING!!! it's making my inner child very happy as i never had these things growing up :,) i love everything about it!
I barely got to interact with the real things when they were the the exciting new technology of my childhood... but it's so fun to make something dreamy out of our memories of what these things might have been like.
Thank you very much for trying it out! :D
Really cute and also very satisfying to play with! I love that there’s a physical aspect to it (how the keychains react to being clicked + having to put the cartridge inside the player and then click the button in order to play the music). I think it kind of makes the deck feel like a stim toy/device in a digital format, if that makes sense (?)
(also i can’t wait to take a look at the unlocked deck when i have the time, tysm for making it available!)
Thank you!! I really enjoy creating physical/sensory experiences in this kind of digital format so I'm really glad it turned out that way. It makes perfect sense to me.
Apologies in advance for the mess of widgets in the unlocked deck, haha. I was rushing and not being that considerate to other deckmakers. But I do think it's possible to follow the threads. (hopefully)
This is so cool! I love seeing the various things people make from such a compact engine. Thank you for sharing!! (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)
Thank you for checking it out!
How on earth?? I can't wait to see what you cooked up in the unlocked deck- it's such much care/playfulness/whimsy (and worldbuilding? idk if that's the right phrase) in such a tight package. ILB grand slam also goes crazy
Hehehe, Thank you! There's bunch of hidden widgets recording the current state of things and a worrying number of if statements, but it was a lot of fun to put the lil' systems together piece by piece.
I'm glad you enjoyed the tune :D it's a favorite of mine in all of it's versions.
Omg this is made in Decker??? Plus it's super cool and cute???? I love it
It sure is :] Everything except the sounds. Thank you so much for checking it out!
What the hell? This is insane. I love it. You’re a master at Decker.
I am definitely still learning! But that just means there's even farther to go... Thank you Salty!
Ahm this is soo cute omg! I love the little sound effects used here. Really want a Phinxel keychain now too haha.
Thank youuu, hehehe :D
So so cute! I loved the chicken game. I couldn't get the music to play, though, the play button would pop back up immediately. The storytelling with the email was a great addition to give it a little depth and intrigue!
There's an extra little step for the music -- picking the cartridge places it above the player, but you need to click it again to "click" it in before it'll play. Thank you for letting me know it's unclear! :D And thank you for playing.
Oooh that makes sense, thank you! I got it to work now!
this is so A Good Physical Vibe and I love it!
Thank you :D And thank you for all of your help, past and present, with playing longer audio.
ooohhhh cuuuuute!! :')
Thank you for checking it out :D
ahhh this is amazing! the details, the animations, the overall cuteness.......... i'm in love
Hehehe, thank you!
A lovely click-a-majig, wonderfully tactile! So much detail in the little things… Would have loved to have one of these things when I was younger.
Same! It is made of many vague yet fond memories of gadgets from the past.
And thank you!
This is so cuuuuteeee!
Thank youuuu :D
