                                    I'll also probably stop taggin pico8 with these to not spam a lot, so drop a follow to not miss anything.

The player has to push the letter together on the map to form the word needed! The first map is an into level, spelling S with an empty space then tart, meaning the player has to push start together to start the game. After that a PICO level, that needs an up and a right push and then a level spelling THREE where the player has to push to letters into place!

When the player pushes the last word in place,it sends neat line into the cardinal directions in bright neon green and so does change the color of the now completed word. After that a letter by letter style fadeout happens which is reversed at the start of a new level.

                                                    I'm building my own framework in love2D called Cappy25!

                                                    It is inspired of pico8 but in widescreen (and other stuff as well).

                                                    Still WIP but I'm exited to use it ✨
