Update 3 - fix speed decrease in Pico8 0.2.0
Update 4 - support cart/bios drag&drop and function keys.
What is this?
An emulator for the Fairchild Channel F, the first console to use programmable ROMs and a microprocessor.
The console was released in 1975, so don't expect much in the way of graphics, gameplay, or usability.
See Wikipedia for more info.
And what's that game running?
That's a homebrewed (i.e. - NOT original) game made by Blackbird and e5frog. You can find it here.

Controls:
Up/Down/Left/Right - move North/South/West/East
Z - Interact (Use / Pick up)
X - Use Item
The Story:
As part of the coming of age ceremony of your village, you are tasked with defeating the vile dragon atop the mountains north of town.
Your quest may be more complex than most as you were born blind, deaf, and without the sense of touch.
However, don't let that dissuade you! Where your senses fail you, perhaps your sense will prevail!
And so - your quest begins!
Easy Mode?
That's right! The original proved too hard to get started with, so this version contains some concessions to make that easier. The meat of the game is the same, so if you already beat the original, you won't find anything new here.

(Code)

An implementation of standard-ish encryption using AES-256-CTR, PBKDF2 & SHA-256-HMAC
FAQ:
Q: What is the point of this? Is anybody expected to waste this metric ton of tokens on an encryption/decryption algorithm that's way too slow to run in pico-8?
A: That's not a question.
Q: Did you implement it from scratch? Are you aware that's that a really bad idea in cryptography, as your implementation is no doubt riddled with bugs and inefficiencies?
A: That's not a question.
Q: What's the password for the demo? Shouldn't the demo showcase successful decryption instead of a failure?!
