Here’s how to make a stardew-inspired simple farming game! Episode 1 is out now!

Dear all, do you have any experience with handheld devices for playing Pico-8 games? Not there yet, but I was already thinking a few times about buying something. There are a lot of articles and posts on the internet, but I must admit - none of them convinced me to go and buy something. And also, are there any "ready-to-play-pico-8" or do all of them need to have some additional app/OS to be installed? Cheers, Marko 🎮

Are you a retro geek 😁 and tiding yourself to the Pico-8 retro code editor, or are you a more modern geek and use an external editor, like VS Code, for developing a game? If it's an external editor, do you edit p8 files or include a Lua file? Until now, all my playing with Pico-8 has been done using its editor. I tried using VS Code to change P8 files, and soon I noticed I was having problems saving/syncing, resulting in the loss of some values. If using external Lua files, do you then write everything in external Lua files, or do you have a mixture of p8 and Lua files? (Not sure if this is even possible!) Cheers, Marko 🎮

Was thinking of making a tomigachi- type game tutorial soon. What do you think?

Just added to the classroom! GO get it! These are just a few notes that I think are really helpful when you're just getting used to Pico-8. Enjoy!
