> Most games will use Playdate’s Lua API

Oh my sweet summer child. Reminds me of the Android documentation that said something along "Most apps shouldn't use the NDK".

Do most apps use the NDK?

AFAIK virtually all Android games use NDK because game engines like Unity are not written in Java.

Instead of unity there is a first-party lua sdk, though

Almost all the most popular apps (Facebook, WhatsApp, Google Chrome, Google Maps ..) do.

And of course, nearly all games do.
