I believe this is the only way to play anything Pico-8 related on SteamDeck although it treats the default joystick controls as if you were pressing and letting go of the input every frame unless you change the keyboard to arrow keys. Currently I've only played Celeste on this and I wish there was some sort of editor or something if possible but I couldn't find any customization :(

Fully working runtime emulation of PICO-8. Bundled games are generally enjoyable and you can run your/any other carts too. It's also free and open source.

Just go to the website and play it there with no issues fullscreen and with a gamepad. The selection of games is so much better as well. Still if this gets people interested in these games... awesome. There's some really great games to try out that many would pay a few bucks for on steam.

its just a bunch of free arcade games and its pretty cool 10/10, also free does not hurt, although i don't know how to close out of the game. I guess alt F4 is what to do even so its pretty fun I think its worth checking out if you're into older games.

I would say it's a good collection of pico 8 games if it weren't for half of them not working or being old versions of the games you can just get on the pico 8 website. As much as it is fun to explore certain games, a lot of them aren't updated or straight up don't work in the first place. I'll stick to using my browser instead.

Kinda cool, nice selection of games included, barely works with proton, LInux support would be immensely appreciated.
