Copy assets in hexels5/30/2023 Next time you run Pico-8, the game is updated with your art! With the new in-game drawing app you can get to changing the sprites right away (again, very WIP prototype): The game programer in the storyline is making a snake game and asks you to design sprites for it. How does all this work in Pixel Art Academy? Well, Pico-8 is an app on your PixelBoy 2000! (Excuse the placeholder menu assets and shitty non-pixel-perfect GIF recording.) The whole community is creating crazy awesome stuff and as soon as I found out about it I became a huge fan. It boots into a file system and with a press of a button you’re in the editing tools where you can write code, make sound effects and music, and yes, design pixel art sprites (if you’re in the scene, the 16-color #pico8 palette is pretty popular). It’s a virtual/fantasy console developed by Zep from Lexaloffle (of Voxatron fame) and it’s so much like the 80s it makes me cry with joy. If you haven’t yet heard of Pico-8, you’re in for a treat. I’m playing with the idea for having Pico-8 in our game Pixel Art Academy. Pixel Art Academy - Unofficial Pico-8 integration Maybe I should enter, hahaha, and make some promo art for Pixel Art Academy.
