Anagrams (updated)
A simple word game.
Swap letters using the 🅾️ to select a letter and the Arrow keys to move to another letter you wish to swap it with. Use 🅾️ again to swap letters. Continue swapping letters in order to find the correct word.
The Dictionary is incomplete but it will attempt to see if you have a found an alternative word and ask you to retry. Correct words add to the score by the number of letters in the word, if you don't find the correct word in the allotted time it will subtract 10 points.
Update: Cursor now wraps around to speed up selection.
This is my second word game, if you like this please try WORDMINE

Frustrated and dismayed by my lack of "real game" progress, I have made a clone of the simplest game I could think of besides the dinosaur one. Today the shower drain wasn't working and the bathtub filled halfway with water and the wall plug in the bathroom was being weird so I couldn't get the hairdryer to turn on and then all the electricity in the bathroom went out and then I fell over and cut my foot on something (the foot is ok now)

I'm experiencing something strange with the latest version of Picotron 0.2.2b.
I have a 33nd color (#202020) in the default palette.
In addition, several colors don't quite match the 0.2.0 edition of the Picotron Palette.
It's as if Picotron Pixels (0.1.1e) had been saved with a different palette.
In fact, the background of the editor is made up of this 33nd color.
As you can see, as soon as you open the “About” page, the previous known palette takes its place and the gray background disappears.
I tried using Pal(), Pal(2), and Reset, as well as installing a fresh version of Picotron in a sandbox, but nothing worked. This palette seems to be the default one.
I also tried OKpal's “Reset Pic. Colors” feature, but it also returns this new palette, but with 32 additional black colors.

Alpha Test
Need the code tested before I add visitors, Please post any errors or bugs you mayfind. Anything you think I could improve on menu's, movement anything.
Thanks for all your help.
All Graphics made with Animation Pro(pico 8 program)
Hard Lesson
As I looked through all the great PICO-8 games, I wondered — why are there so few isometric ones?
My iso tiles are 32x16, and just to draw the ground I need to render 144 of them every frame. That’s before trees, rides, or anything fun. It was fine... until I added 200 visitors. 😅
After days of rewrites and poking around with memcpy(), I realized my code wasn’t the problem — I was just hitting the PICO-8 CPU limit.
