I was playing around in the sound editor again, playing with the new filters, and found a pretty cool distorted guitar sound. So naturally, the metal soon followed.
The songs in order are Judas Priest - Painkiller, Slayer - Angel of Death, Megadeth - Holy Wars... The Punishment Due, Alice In Chains - Them Bones, Entombed - Left Hand Path, Metallica - Battery

I've been on a bit of a trip these past few days trying to understand how to use PICO-8 on the Raspberry Pi. I've been quite successful in most regards of setting everything up, custom Emulation Station theming and properly booting .PNG cartridges from ES directly into PICO-8.
What has been its own specific issue, however, is trying to get both cartridges and .sh files to work with the Raspberry Pi version of PICO-8. The "best" options currently seems to be to make a whole extra .sh file for each individual game, or to make a custom extra overhead script that would verify if the selected option was either a .sh file (or any arbitrary file extension that isn't a .p8 or .PNG), in which case boot SPLORE, or when it is a .p8 or .PNG, run those. This shouldn't be the hardest thing in the world, but it seems that way to me since the Raspberry Pi doesn't like to hand over the original file's extension to any script I've tried so far. If this does turn out a succes I'll for sure post an update on this idea.


Hi
I used the code:
https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=43376
now I would like the inscription (text) to appear after let's say 5 seconds
Anyone know the answer?

I just started making my first small game in Pico-8, and the only complaint I have is that I cannot scroll horizontally in the code editor with my trackpad. Has this feature ever been under consideration? (And is the forum the right place to request it? In a search I saw someone else post a feature request here.)

The original PICO-8 puny font was just the uppercase letters, except slightly smaller, which does not follow the the "theme" of current fonts today, like sans serif. So I decided to "enhance" it by making the puny letters simular to sans serif or other fonts.
Also, credit to Astorek86 for the #FONT_SNIPPET with original font cart.
