      Yeah me too same color too! Right now I have the RGXX and only fake8 I’m wondering why it can’t run native as it’s a Linux system too. I have to look into it more and the RGXX can do WiFi too on this one cfw but you have it use a dongle so it’s not ideal

    Witch Loves Bullets is a Cotton copycat. Cotton is a 90's game available for many systems, including Cotton Reboot on the Switch. Very cool version, even though simpler.

      Yeah a lot of PICO8 games are demakes or ports but that doesnt take away from how purely fun they are.

    So when I was searching for polar panic to favorite it, I seen a game called a perfect snowflake. Not a game that’s gonna blow anyone’s mind, but the graphics and animation was awesome. If you like rogue kind of games picokaiju and guncho are my favorites.

      @PortageeJoe 8 месяцев назад

      Yes sir, the RGB30. Russ at Retro Game Corps has one and it's very good. He also has a written guide. He has been my go-to dude, but your rg35xx Plus video was so easy for me to follow and so well done. Your tip on not using a fast charger from your 10 tips video...that saved my butt ( ruclips.net/video/A9M3-br29dQ/видео.html ) Thank you!

    I buy pico 8 license, put it on the root of pico8 roms directory, but cannot have splore.
    I buy a game kilikan, and not work with pico8, working only the free games...
    How you have enabled splore and play licensed game?

    I can't help myself, but these 128x128 pixels just don't do it for me, it's only 71% the pixel count of a Gameboy. I'm a huge retro handheld fan and love many of the old Gameboy games, but still I don't get warm with the 128x128 pixels of Pico-8. Of course it's still very impressive what can be done with 128x128 and with this extremely small file sizes, but imagine what would've been possible with fewer limitations (at least 256x256, roughly the pixel count of a C64 and with higher file sizes). In my opinion it was the wrong decision to make the limitations so high. Compared to the Pico-8 games, even many Gameboy games are much more complex. The Pico-8 games are all extremely limited without any complexity. You play it for 1 minute and you have already seen everything the game has to offer in most cases (somehow reminds me of the old Atari 2600 days). So my personal opinion: No, Pico-8 is not way underrated. A lot of potential has been wasted here.

    • @JaviPlayRetro
      @JaviPlayRetro  8 месяцев назад +15

      I love PICO 8 for what it is. Bite-size games like Tetris and Just One Boss really shine on this platform. However, I understand that the limitations put people off, and that's understandable. But this is only the beginning of Fantasy Consoles. There will be more and are more like TICO8 with fewer limitations that will be able to run bigger, more ambitious games.

      That's the point of it. It harkens back to the days of simple games and trying to get the most out of limitations. Also to learn programming and all these games are editable to learn coding.
