It's been 10 years since PICO-8's release...
Let's celebrate! here's a small cart with some PICO-8 history and trivia.
I've been so glad to have found PICO-8 a year ago, and couldn't wait to add to the PICO-8 lore in my own way. That said, I am very happy to have been able to research and share this history with you! Feel free to share what you love about PICO-8 below, etc. Thanks for making the PICO-8 community great!

Wow, I had no idea today was PICO-8's birthday! This is a nice little tribute, well spotted, Steven!
Happy Birthday Pico-8!
I was late to the party with Pico-8, but I heard about Voxatron years ago, from this article: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2011/01/we-3-voxels-why-voxatron-is-an-exciting-indie-shooter/ I loved Voxatron, and really hoped it was going to be actively developed (I mostly played the supplied Arena and Hug Arena by @benjamin_soule). I resisted Pico-8 for many years before finally seeing what the fuss was about and I absolutely love it. It just hits the spot for me.
One day I will write a cart myself. One day...
