In 496 characters of #pico8 code:
I wrote a tiny #pico8 game called Jelpi-Knights for the #tweettweetjam , where the goal is to write a game with at most 500 characters of code and no external assets (aside from whatever your engine provides out-of-the-box). The result is here: https://itch.io/jam/tweettweetjam-11/rate/4623008
I'll discuss the game itself in-thread, but here is the incredibly cursed code I ended up producing:

Lexaloffe BBS: Coming soonish.
I met up with RetroFunTech for a chat about #pico8 and #picotron at @picopicocafe a while ago, and you can listen to it now at:

I'm creating custom sprites that can be placed inside of the default text editor within Picotron.
We've been working on the updated Seal of Solitomb for a while, so just as a reminder: the original #pico8 version is still awesome, and still free-to-play here:

If you haven't played yet and are in the mood to solitaire-up some sweet monster combos, give it a whirl! ๐
