@catoutofbed iirc pico-8 just doesn’t let you do that??
@catoutofbed @iliana negative
pico-8 cart limitations are: token count, char count, and compressed size
@catoutofbed @iliana at least now i understand why those limits exist
@catoutofbed yeah I remember people talking about there being two limits, the artificial one you know about, and the PNG-induced one you don’t
@iliana i'll have to do some testing but
it stores it in a limited ammount of space in the pngs
but it stores it as compressed plaintext
and i think the code size limit is entirely based on the number of tokens, not the actual character count
