256-colors, really REALLY ??
No, not really. Not in PICO-8 anyways.
Well, if you squint your eyes it sorta works. But that's really not good enough.
Now when I did something like this on the Apple ][+ years ago I had very favorable results.
And as this cart is "presumably" running at 60fps, I'm not sure why it isn't just a comfortable blur the eyes can't see the flicker.
Maybe ... maybe if this truly is 60fps it needs 120fps to blend perfectly so the human eye cannot detect it ? Any chance of a [b]FLIP(60) and [b]FLIP(120) ZEP ?
Thanks to Felice who jogged my memory about this method in trying have the viewer see more colors in a tweetcart than were possible.
