also, there's a little secret mechanic. you will know when you find it. it will only be used in levels where it's painfully obvious. there are no levels where it is used, but you can beat the level otherwise.

This is for @huulong but will likely assist others.
There was some talk of not being able to export the LABEL of a Pico-8 cart.
That is the screen you record when you press the F7 key during its runtime.
Well it can be done with a bit of work.
These instructions are for the commercial version of Pico-8.
Load the cart you want to export the title screen and type the following in immmediate mode:
save flip
Then edit the FLIP.p8 in Notepad or some other convenient text editor.
Look for __gfx__
change that to __label__
Look lower in the code for __label__
change that to __gfx__
Save that code.
Bring back up Pico-8.
Now in immediate mode type:
load flip
You will see that the spritesheet now contains the title screen.
To export the title screen type:
export title.png
When all done you can delete the flip.png
file.
If you found this helpful or have further questions, please let me know.
THANKS !
I've been noticing a significant decrease of the RAM Pico-8 shows in stat(0) after rebooting it. I just updated from 0.2.5e to 0.2.5g and didn't notice this bug in 0.2.5e. But since I don't reboot often, I might have missed it in 0.2.5e.
Anyway, this bug might be new. Here are some pictures to show you the RAM usage as shown by stat(0) before and after rebooting Pico-8.
87KB before reboot, and 23KB after reboot.
The games still seem to play fine.
EDIT: The bug also affects version 0.2.5e

This game supports touchscreen and mouse (as press/click and drag) as well as directional input. (This includes WASD) Confirmation requires you to press "Tap on the Screen", "Left Click" or pressing of the "X" key or button. Additionally, one may access options within the "Pause Menu" by pressing the "Enter" key or by pressing the "Menu" button (On android this button is a small rectangle). In there you'll find a option to turn off the music, or just have drums available when playing the game.
Rather than a bug it is a help post.
In my keyboad I have to press [alt gr]+ [7]or [0(zero)] to type surly brackets {}
But, in pico 8 edu edition [alt gr] + [7] and [0] captures image or toggles keyboard cursor..
Is there any alternatives to type {} rather than copying and pasting ??
NOTE: I am usin a "Q Turkhish keyboard"
I don't want to do complicated things :(

Developer Explanation
First of all love is love! Support the human rights of human beings!
This is a flicker palette expansion demo that uses 49 colors of an available 136 "colors" to animate a randomized, circular rainbow "video wipe" style effect. This is achieved by drawing two different colors on the same pixel in quick succession to dazzle your senses into tricking your brain into thinking it's seeing more colors than Pico-8 can actually draw. It looks okay at 30 fps but really benefits from 60 fps.
Apparently there is historical evidence of arcane "Super CGA" video cards using this method to expand the color palette of old 16-color monitors from a bygone era. Cool stuff. Most of the CGA cards like the CGA board that went into the IBM PC XT back then were only displaying four colors at time so there wouldn't have been much incentive to write a piece of software that actually used this technique.
This GIF image example is 30 fps since capturing a GIF at 60 fps only shows one half of the frames so the effect is lost in the conversion. This 30 fps example is also slow enough to give an idea of how the effect is achieved: each band of colors is actually three bands wide. The code runs at 60 fps which looks 100% better than the example GIF.
