Just spent 40-mins playing a delightful, free @pico8 game on Steam by https://apskeppet.se/ called Ascent DX. Highly recommended. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3384890/Ascent/_DX/

hi! i bought a MIYOO MINI V4  to play pico 8 games

i've followed these instructions:
Drag the app folder from the releases page into /mnt/SDCARD/App/ (so it becomes /mnt/SDCARD/App/pico). Warning: If you use FTP and Filezilla, you must set your transfer type to binary or it will corrupt binaries on transfer.

Drag your RASPBERRY PI pico8_dyn and pico8.dat into /mnt/SDCARD/App/pico/bin (If the directory doesn't exist, you can create it). You can purchase Pico-8 here.

and i cannot manage to see pico 8 in the apps menu as the tutorials say.
also instead of all the apps they show i only see 4. instead of multiple apps as in the tutorial i followed

First version of a new fantasy console/computer from Lexaloffle is available to purchase now, on sale till the end of the month.

I haven't tried it yet (other than limited messing around with the Picotron playground in the past), but am excited to check it out soon.

From their website,

Picotron is a Fantasy Workstation for making pixelart games, animations, music, demos and other curiosities. It has a toy operating system designed to be a cosy creative space, but runs on top of Windows, MacOS or Linux. Picotron apps can be made with built-in tools, and shared with other users in a special 256k png cartridge format.

Excellent video introduction by Krystian (Lazy Devs) here.

And like PICO-8, you can play anything posted to the BBS in your browser here

I enjoy the limited environment, retro-like environment myself. It limits my choices to stay focused on small projects, while providing a fairly robust and modern environment to work in.
