10 Days of 100 Games, #1

My adapter arrived! It was a little tricky to get it plugged in and then I had to configure it to work with PICO-8. The mapping suggestions in the PICO-8 manual didn’t work, but I figured it out. Here’s the SDL map:

03000000d804000064f0000011010000,retroUSB NES RetroPort,a:b0,b:b1,back:b2,start:b3,dpup:-a1,dpleft:-a0,dpdown:+a1,dpright:+a0,platform:Linux

The controller works perfectly now!
Here’s the games I tried today (in no particular order):

  1. Alpine Alpaca
  2. Drumset
  3. Clouds Aloft
  4. Stick v1.01
  5. On the Wind
  6. Cernan Slalom
  7. Dominopolis
  8. Can Crusher
  9. frostpunk_pico
  10. Amika’s Quest

The NES controller feels like it was meant for PICO-8. It’s perfect. Although, my thumb isn’t used to the d-pad and it kind of hurts xD. So that’s it for today; I’m having a great time!
