## How to run

Download [the carts] and unpack them into a subdirectory in your carts folder. You can find this folder by executing a `FOLDER` command in Pico-8. Assuming you named the subdirectory `badapple`, your carts directory should look something like this:

[the carts]: https://github.com/iliazeus/pico8-badapp/releases/latest/download/carts.zip

```

┬─ carts

└┬─ badapple

 ├─ data_0.p8

 ├─ data_1.p8

 ...

 └─ play.p8

```

To then run the carts, change into this subdirectory in Pico-8 (`CD BADAPPLE`), and then load and run the "play" cart (`LOAD PLAY.P8`, `RUN`).

## How to build

You'll need these dependencies:

- GNU Make (other flavors of `make` might work too)

- [aria2](https://aria2.github.io/) - for downloading the Bad Apple source video

- ImageMagick

- Node.js (tested on v22, might work on several older ones)

- `pico8` in `$PATH` (optional; for automatic `.p8.png` generation)

Then, to build the `carts.zip`, just run `make`.
