As anyone who has posted a Pico-8 cartridge has noticed, there is a 10-character identification name to allow you to load the Pico-8 cartridge in immediate mode thus:
load #dofinihade |
Where you type LOAD, pound sign, then the 10-character name followed by the ENTER key.
However something I noticed rather early and surprising is that the codes repeat vowels and consonants.
Here then is a more robust code generator that ensures no repeats, can produce 12-billion codes, yet limited to 32767 as this is the highest number for Pico-8.
Nonetheless it is complete. Generating a 10-letter code with no repeated letters per code and checks to make sure it is not a code already generated for a previous ID number.
As there are 10-letters each, every code always uses every vowel.
If you discount duplicates there are a total of 12,762,815,625 possible codes to be generated from this format.
