My PICO-8 system seems to be broken, the video is glitchy and it keeps crashing or freezing up on me.
Please help :(

Did you try turning it off and then back on?
Maybe try this:
1.) Open the cart in your favorite photo viewer
2.) Rotate the cart 180 degrees
3.) Blow onto the bottom
4.) Rotate it back and close it
It also might be a loose fantasy cable, If so you will need to get access to the backside of the pico8 program and adjust it.
Nice cart.

That's true, link. Sometimes all that's needed to correct bad behavior is a quick adjustment to the backside.

Agree. Sometimes after playing several games, I type REBOOT and all I get is a black screen.
If you're not working with PocketCHIP, best thing to do, save your work as a .P8 (not .PNG), shut down PICO-8, then bring it back up again.
See if that solves the problem.
If it =IS= PocketCHIP you are having trouble with, then LinkTheGamer's advice may be more prudent.

I too almost fell for it... but zep's [Code] button now gives the game away (nice random memcpy BTW!) :o)
