Is there any way to convert a data.pod file back to p8?

I need ideas for when I first start developing in Pico-8. I've been looking at tutorials on YouTube, but I can't quite wrap my head around them, so I thought would come to the community for help. Anything easy to start with would be nice. Thanks!

I've recently created a cart and I have next to no clue on how to publish carts! I've put them out on something but when I go to the "carts" tab in my profile, they don't show up. Could someone please help me with this problem.

Just little music, animations are generic and fit every music and are made from someone else.

So, as most of us know, .p8 cartridges consist of sections. lua,gfx,map, etc etc. Well, I found this other section named gff. I just wanted to know what it did, since it doesn't seem to directly correlate to anything you can edit. I'm just asking since I'm making a cart generator in Python so I need to know if gff is an important memory region.

Hi all,
I'm using, from a LUA script, to draw the current room the method:

old_draw = _draw
function _draw()
old_draw() -- draw the room and objects
...
end

It's great to draw the current room with just a function call.
But can I change the current room from LUA script code to draw the another room calling old_draw() function?
If not, can I draw directly another room without change to it?

Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

welcome to the ocelot safari!

enjoy the ocelots, and do let us know if you find any long-lost relics deep in the jungle :)

instructions

• hold Z to drag things
• arrow keys to move
• retrieve the lost gemstone of Tezcatlipoca! some say it’s as far as fvkgl-sbhe meters deep in the jungle!

tips

• we'll leave you some new tools at the initial drop point, if the ocelots steal your gear
• ocelots can crawl through vines and trees -- they're tricksters!
• be sure to bring some matches; the nights are long and dark, and who knows what lurks in the jungle...

I was pretty surprised to find that there aren't many isometric games here...

so I decided to have a go at making one :)

Not much to see here. Just 4 rooms of nothing.

Nice weather for camping, but what's that? Treasure?
Time to start digging through the digits and get back before barbecue is ready.
