If you check PICO-8's built-in splore tool, you might notice I posted a few stuff there:
PICO-83
An attempt to bring the TI-83+ to PICO-8. So far Output() works.

pet the dog!!!!!!!!!!
Based on this thing (http://dogs.are.the.most.moe/), which in turn is based on Undertale.

Nice to see you doing PICO-8 stuff, especially since you know Lua. :) I am curious about what you will come up with with the PICO-83 thing. Also lol at Pet the Dog. Is there a goal in the game or is it like Desert Bus and Level up by Walking around? :P
Good luck with future PICO-8 projects. :)
Eh, been a while I played with PICO-8, picked it back up yesterday while bored. PICO-83 is pretty much a proof of concept while, well, there's no goal in Pet the dog other than petting the dog.
Lol I see. I am curious about how feasible it would be to port LOVE 2D games to PICO-8 with smaller sprites if they are simple... Supersonic Ball would definitively be cool

Of course it would have much fewer colors, though.
Of course it would.
Oh, also, a window manager GUI in PICO-8, because why not.

I actually like how it looks like. By the way I am curious if GIFs produced by PICO-8 capture thing (whatever it is) are big in size or if they're smaller than their calculator counterparts? I notice that they're much smoother overall.
Do you plan to do something with this Window manager, by the way?

Dunno, I made a short one and it's about 300K.

No. Not yet, anyway.
Hm that's quite big O.O but I guess it's handy when a website lacks video embedding support
Nice WM juju, I like that. It's very smooth too (thank you new 60 fps mode)
The pico-8 gif export is not optimised at all, but it's easy to load the exported gif into GIMP, then use the "optimise gif" tool which will reduce it by a factor of 8 or 10.
Update: Turned it into a module, added title bars and the ability to resize windows.

I saw this on twitter, looks nice! It could make a nice UI for a "hacking" game or something.
By the way, does it require any dependencies? I didn't know PICO-8 had mouse support before. Also this could be handy for other people I think. Maybe this should be split into a PICO-8 Window Manager topic for more visibility and addition to download section?
Also you should add options that allows people to hide title bars or icons or even disable drag and drop. That could be handy if for example someone was to use this in a JRPG and didn't want the mouse stuff.

PICO-8 doesn't "officially" have mouse support. Somebody found out that by poking the right values in memory, you could read the mouse position and button state.
Oh rofl, so someone hacked PICO-8? Or is it just by using pointers or something like some stuff we could do in Axe?

Pointers and stuff.
Yeah, mouse support is an undocumented feature and not officially supported. It's there, likely for the program editor, except zep did not meant to put it in the docs and/or anyone to use it.

I think you're better drawing rectangles in that case. Unless you need to move windows, that is.
Ah ok. I hope it won't get patched by accident in future versions. That's kinda cool that we can do such stuff. Also I was suggesting the JRPG idea since sometimes that requires moving windows and stuff and it would make it easier for programmers to make menus. But also it would make your routine more versatile.
Update! It looks like a decent OS with a taskbar now, check it out.

It even supports touchscreen for the mouse movements o.o
Also this looks good so far. Now it reminds me a bit of Windows 98 :P
Looks pretty cool :o
I wonder if a pico8 emu on CE would be possible? Given the large amount of games on pico8 games, such an emulator will open a lot of gaming possibility. If not then maybe an emulator of some nintendo consoles would be possible on the CE?

I asked zep about the possibility of porting PICO-8 to the Nspire and he said that it wouldn't be possible, so I'm sure a CE port would be out of the question unfortunately.
Wouldn't be possible do to legal or hardware reasons?

hardware
Ohh. What makes it so impossible? The fact that you need a lua interpreter or a lot of memory or something else?
Maybe PICO 8 was not optimized enough to run on such lower-end hardware?
New program!

(Allow your webcam. Yep.)
Lol that is epic. I didn't know PICO-8 could do video streaming from a webcam (or Manycam)
Yeah, most of the thing is done in Javascript, then it crams it in PICO-8's 128 bytes of GPIO port memory. Kinda why it's this slow.
