I ran a game design class for Cub Scouts using PICO-8 a couple years ago for my oldest son's den and running another one for my youngest son in a month. For the first class I ran I registered as an educator and requested educational take home licenses. I reached out in various other ways as well. Not sure if it was a busy time for Zep but I never got a response. My educator registration is still showing "Application in Progress" after two years.

Does anyone know if educational licenses are still a thing? Is there another process I should go through?

You can try sending a follow-up email, or contact zep on twitter.

I reached out again. We will see. I wonder if he is getting too many of these requests and/or people lying.

No response yet from @zep nor update to educator application status.

Hi @dmr83457. You might reach him direct in Twitter. He's pretty active there.
