#PutAFlipInIt! #pico8

put-a-flip-in-it.p8

-- 1. Paste this at the very bottom of your PICO-8 
--    cart
-- 2. Hit return and select the menu item to save
--    a slow render gif (it's all automatic!)
-- 3. Tweet the gif with #PutAFlipInIt
-- 
-- Notes: 
--
-- This relies on the max gif length being long
-- enough. This can be set with the -gif_len 
-- command line option, e.g.:
--
--   pico8.exe -gif_len 30
--
-- The gif is where it would be when you hit F9.
-- Splore doesn't play nicely with this, you
-- need to save the splore cart locally and load
-- it.
--
-- You might need to remove unnecessary 
-- overrides to save tokens. pset() override
-- flips every 4th pset() call.
--
-- This doesn't always play nicely with optional
-- parameters, e.g. when leaving out the color 
-- param.
--
-- Name clashes might happen, didn't bother
-- to namespace etc.

You can use lua's varargs instead of specifying each parameter to have cleaner wrappers and avoid trying to fix optional parameters

Really? I thought that was somehow disabled in Pico-8. Need to check on that, thanks!
