PICO-8 for Raspberry Pi comes in several flavours included in this archive: pico8 // 32-bit with custom-built and statically linked sdl2 pico8_dyn // 32-bit, dynamically linked sdl2 pico8_gpio // 32-bit, requires wiringpi for acessing gpio pins (0x5f80..0x5fff) pico8_64 // For 64-bit Rasperry Pi OS -- requires libsdl2. :: Installing SDL2 sdl2 is required for pico8_dyn, pico8_gpio and pico8_64. You can make sure it's installed with: $ sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev :: Installing wget PICO-8 uses wget for bbs downloads. If you have trouble download cartridges or cart listings, try: $ sudo apt-get install wget :: Slow Framerate If you get a warning on boot "warning: running below 30fps", or PICO-8 seems to be running slowly in fullscreen, it might help to use the legacy OpenGL driver: $ raspi-config -> selected "Advanced" and then "GL Drivers" -> select the legacy gpu driver option
