Hello.
This is kind of a dumb question, but it would be nice if we had PICO-8 as part of the Consoles category.
If you don't know what PICO-8 is, it is a virtual machine created by an independent company called Lexaloffle Games, with its headquarters based in Tokyo, Japan. The company refers it as a "fantasy console" used to make, share and play tiny games and other stuff. PICO-8 just got its popularity last year around the same time Celeste was released. Also, it was initially created for a game jam back in 2015 under the name of "Celeste Classic", and became one of the most popular games on the PICO-8 BBS, prompting the game developers to make a full version of it. Celeste Classic has since then been featured in the full version as an easter egg the devs hid.
