And Pico 8 auto closes when I try to open it from the drop down menu. I have a HDMI dip on my chip. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

One major question: Is there any way to launch PICO-8 with just the included game controller connected? I can connect a keyboard long enough to launch it, sure, but since it’s meant to be an “all-in-one” game system, I was hoping there was some mechanism for launching PICO-8 built in.

Now you can install it on any C.H.I.P. from the command line:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install chip-pico-8

Can you clarify what “we are thrilled that every PocketC.H.I.P. and now every C.H.I.P. has access to PICO-8 for free!” means?

Thanks

Or a DIP and TV/monitor is required? When I start Pico-8 over the VNC connection to the CHIP, a splash screen is shown, but none of the keyboard keys have any effect, the picture just hangs there forever…
