Hi all, I wanted to share with you an experiment I've been working on called World of Pico. It uses the GPIO pins to transfer map data from a JavaScript context to the cart, allowing for essentially unlimited maps for exploration when the cart is hosted on a webpage. The demo has 3 maps, but I can see this technique being used in combination with a map server, and eventually allowing for interactivity between the client and server.

The method of data transfer is very similar to how P8T by seleb works. Different values on pin 0 of the GPIO tell the JS app or the cart whose turn it is to read and update the following pin values. If you want to explore the source code or read more about the transfer technique, please check out the GitHub repo.

Thanks for taking a look!
