In Celeste, there's an easter egg that lets you play the original PICO-8 game on an in-game computer. How was this accomplished, if porting it themselves isn't possible? Did they have to remake the entire game?
- roywiggins 6y agoThey might have built their own pico-8 runtime/emulator. Alternatively, porting the game to use another Lua runtime (like LÖVE) would probably not be that hard. Ex, here's a pico-8 runtime in LÖVE: https://github.com/picolove/picolove https://github.com/picolove/picolove
- Wezl 6y agoIt's a small game, they could port the entire game to another language or platform pretty easily.
- jamesgeck0 6y agoYeah, they remade the whole game with some help from the PICO-8 developer. https://twitter.com/MattThorson/status/1032067981600124928 https://twitter.com/MattThorson/status/1032067981600124928
