This is great love your work

Thanks - appreciate it!

This is amazing.

glad you like it!

das cute :D

Hey <3 We realise this is an old project but we found a bug. Unsure if it's pico-8 or the cartridge itself.

Spent an unreasonable amount of time trying to do an animation and noticed a strange behaviour:

cls()

print(abs(-3)) -- 3

print(5*abs(-3)) -- -3

print(5*abs(-3*1)) -- 15

Anyway, this was delightful to try out <3

Hey there, glad you have fun!
The parser I wrote for this is far from feature complete so there are probably a lot of issue like this I'm afraid. :D

Better than windows

Very fun to use, charming <3.

Incredibly cool! Great work :D

Thanks Camden!

this is just awesome, i loved it, any way of having a downloable version? like an exe? or even the p8 file

Thanks!
You can download it straight to pico8 by typing
LOAD #picopicotron

but i dont have pico8 :( that is why i was asking for a downloable version, sorry for bothering

Thanks for the download link I was interested in one of the features.
