It appears this might be a Windows specific solution, in order to launch it in the 3:1 aspect ratio it is intended for, you either have to type the following into a command line, have it in a batch file or as the target on a Windows Shortcut:
"cd C:\Program Files (x86) (*) \PICO-8\pico8.exe -displays_x 3 -displays_y 1"
(*) Part before star symbol dependent on your install location.
You cannot play the game on here (screen is limited to 1/3rd) and I sadly do not have a Linux machine to test out alternatives. You can play it straight from your browser at the itch.io page.
Hello,
I'm playing around with a Le Potato, which is very similar to a Raspberry Pi 3b. I downloaded the RPi version of P8 and tried to run it on the Le Potato (running Raspbian 11), but nothing happens. No error, nothing. No execution at all.
Am I doing something wrong? Or is it just not supported on this hardware?
Thanks!

Description
This game is a very stripped down version of Minecraft, removing everything that is not essential to get to the very core: building. There are no mobs, no survival, not even a player character. Instead you are given 9 blocks, a 20x20x10 area and a few songs to listen to while you create.
Creator's Comment
While it might not be an impressive length for others, this is my first project I've finished after working on it for over a week. I've always struggled with staying on one project for even more than a few days. I came really close to achieving this with my last project, "Ashes", but burnt out at the very tail end of development. For finally achieving this feat, I'd like to thank some of my friends for showing interest in this project and helping me with ideas/bug fixes, especially "Luigi" (not his real name).
In Sorted Inc. you are in charge of a fully automated robot assembly line. But is there even such a thing as "fully automated"? With every completed robot, the factory's pace quickens, and your precision is put to the test. Make a wrong move, and the factory's efficiency will plummet!
Can you keep up with the relentless pace of the factory floor and prove your worth as the ultimate sorting robot?
Sorted Inc. was created as an entry to Cre8 Jam. See the submission here
Features:
- Three modes: Normal, Endless (without time limit) and Chill (pace of the factory is restricted),
The Yokohama Coffee Shop ☕️
Welcome to Yokohama! The year is 2121. Mankind is dead. Robots still work in certain facilities to maintain the power supply. Between shifts, they visit coffee shops to experience what humans called a 'coffee break'. You are an android barista and your job is to serve your customers quickly.
This is my entry for the Cre8 Jam. I struggled for a few days after the theme was announced, but luckily I was reading Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou at the time, and this really beautiful solar punk manga is about a robot barista in a post-apocalyptic world serving coffee to the few humans (and robots) left in the area. It seemed like a good fit, so I decided to make a Tapper-like game with robots and coffee, and added some flickering neon signs for good measure.
The peasants are revolting!
Protect the king and shoots the balloons before they can capture the king and carry him away.
You have infinite player bows but only 3 chances to save the king (extra life at 10,000 points).

EDIT 09-22-2023: This morning, Lucky Draw worked briefly and then stopped working again, so I've changed this to a bug since it seems more like a glitch than an intentional change now.
A while back, Zep added a "Lucky Draw" sort to the BBS cart mode view that would pull in a not quite random assortment of cartridges based on a behind-the-scenes algorithm. You could get to it using this link: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?cat=7#sub=0&page=1&mode=carts&orderby=lucky or in SPLORE by switching to Lucky Draw.
I'm not sure how popular or even well-known it was, but it's been my go-to cart discovery method since it was created. I check it a few times a week to find interesting looking carts I haven't seen or played before. As of this morning though, it seems to be either gone or broken (it just returns a blank content area - if you change "lucky" to "ts" in the link above, you get cart view sorted by new as usual). It also doesn't work in SPLORE in PICO-8 0.2.5g, with an error saying "Could Not Connect To BBS" if you try to update the list.

Want sfx fast? sfxp can help! Adjust the sliders for new sounds, or click "random" for instant inspiration.
Controls:
- click/drag sliders and buttons
- right click the random button to mutate the current sound instead of fully randomizing it
- z/x to replay the current sound
- left arrow to undo
- right arrow to redo
You can export either to sfxp format (to share, or to edit more later) or to PICO-8 sfx format (to paste into the PICO-8 sfx editor and use in your PICO-8 games). Export works via the clipboard, which can be kind of weird on the web version of PICO-8. I highly recommend running sfxp on desktop PICO-8 if you have it.
You can also find sfxp on Itch.
Another quality of life improvement feature request:
Add a screensaver option to splore.
Use case:
Let's say I built a PICO-8 arcade cabinet. Splore works well in that context as a frontend cart interface. But, when the machine boots into splore, it just sits static at the menu until a user interacts with it. While the cabinet is not being used, it would be amazing if splore could wait for some amount of time for user input and then display a screensaver until input is detected, at which point it just goes back to normal splore.
If I could, say, define a list of screensaver carts in a csv file, and then use something like a -screensaver commandline argument to define the filepath, then nothing custom would even need to be created. Splore would just need to randomly select one of the carts in the defined csv file, run it for some period of time (say 5 minutes or whatever) before randomly picking another one. Rinse/repeat until user input is detected.
So, an example commandline might be:
