Built on top of [Ebitengine], PIGO8 gives you a pixel-perfect environment with a familiar and fun API inspired by PICO-8, without needing to learn Lua and start your arrays counting from 1. While PIGO8 is inspired by PICO-8, it does not contain or distribute any part of the original PICO-8 engine or its proprietary assets. It is a clean-room reimplementation for educational and creative purposes. Features Go-first API: Design and develop retro games in idiomatic Go code. PICO-8 Style: Recreates the look and feel of the PICO-8 API and game loop. Sprite & Map Support: Import .p8 files and reuse your graphics and map data. Backed by Ebiten: Harness cross-platform power with minimal setup. Nostalgic Aesthetic: Build games that feel right at home on a fantasy console. Editor: Extremely basic minimal editor for sprite and map creation. Extras: Custom palletes, any resolution and helpful new functions (e.g. for collision detection). Sound System: Audio player plays any wav file. Advanced Palette: Dynamic color palette management with alpha transparency support. Fade System: Frame-by-frame fade transitions for smooth scene changes and effects.
