Let me just correct you on something, Picotron is not a workstation for the Pico-8. Pico-8, Picotron and Voxatron are all different beasts. All three allow you to make programs (mostly games) and play them but you cannot play a pico-8 game on picotron and vice-versa. All three have a feature to allow you to download games directly on the device. And all three allow you to export your games as standalones. Pico-8 is a console, akin to a gameboy, while picotron is more like a computer. You can make games, but programs too. The whole user space is written inside of it.

I highly recommend the Zachtronics Solitaire Collection. Greatly designed solitaire games. I play them every day on my commute to work.

I think this is mostly because the core team has been working on 4.0 for a couple of years now so I would imagine that PRs get overlooked. It's a popular project and there's not a lot of people on the team so yeah it builds up.

I have PR open since 2020 (small change for a bit of qol) still hasn't been merged and I believe that there will be major conflicts now.

Yeah, it's made to feel like strlen in a way. Sentinel types are mostly used with C code. That way strlen(some_string) == some_string.len.

> Also, the idea that employees of a game company don't play the game they work on for fun is pretty understandable.

This is true, but I think for a game as complex as Eve, developpers need to know the game they work on. Eve is constantly changing and evolving because of its nature.

For example Riot games required (I don't know if they still do) employees to have and maintain a certain rank in competitive queues.

The community has been complaining about a big disconnect between devs and players and this could explain it.
