Introduction
Hello, i hope everyone is having a good 2021 so far :)
A good friend of mine ( @dad Jr.) introduced me to Pico-8 back in November 2020, and i set about looking for a tutorial on youtube to learn the Pico-8 interface and how lua works in general. Coming from Python the syntax was a little weird but was easy enough to get around (i hate tables).
Eventually i found a video series from Dylan Bennett ( @MBoffin) describing how to create a simple top down adventure game
After that @dad Jr. and I collaborated, and today we believe we have a demo ready for use!
