Hello,
I'm currently trying to convert a pico8 card into a qrcode (or several), but unfortunately I can't find anything how something like this could work. I know that there is a possibility with "save @url" but then the map is not saved but this card needs it. I had also seen that it had already been tried but didn't find anything further about the procedure but also online services which say they would not be able to do something like that but only save the image and output a qrcode with a link in itself or with a pythonscript which didn't work either. I don't know what else to try if I could get a hint about this I would be very happy.
best regards

cant you just upload the game to bbs then literally copy the URL and make a QRcode that links direct to it, ie: not using save @url, thus retaining your maps?

QRcode can only encore a very small amount of data - see the recent pico1k jam, that’s already 3x the size of a ‘standard’ qrcode!

as hinted, only encode the url!

Oh ok i thought i can split the picture into 5 or 6 qr codes.
I can‘t just upload it to bbs because i build a handheld with a pi2 and a Camera (But without Internet because it is a handheld for like the way in the bus to school) for pico8 and thought it would be good for having anything
physical like a printed qrcode wich realy works. But thanks for your answers.

Best regards
