hi pico8 community. i'd like to introduce you all to radico8, the first 24/7 pico8 webradio. radico8 is a pico8 console/cart that is always online and playing specific tracks from specific carts. the radio is available as a youtube stream or audio stream.

tune into radico8 now: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNiwmNlnzY0Rg17Ii2RPIkw/live

you can add to the playlist and learn how it works on github: https://github.com/alanxoc3/radico8

i've already added some of the songs i like from various pico8 carts into the radio playlist. if you have more song suggestions, don't hesitate to request them on github.

This is amazing and everyone should listen to it.

heck yes. i'm adding my music when i finish my game and you (cough anyone reading this cough) should too

Just wrote you there, and yep, already you are playing quite a few of my favs !

Gold medal + 💗 Favorited !

If you haven't yet done so, please include all music from demo scenes. Those are some of the best !

This is excellent!

@alanxoc3 You don't have to answer this but I was thinking about it today and I'm just curious, where does this service run and what does it cost? I know hosting containerized services isn't always cheap and I imagine the service is quite a bit heavier resource-wise than a typical small blog or other website. Are you self-hosting the infra?

Wow, this is really, really amazing. I'm adding the stream to my list of background working music!
