Neko8 is a fantasy console, inspired by pico8, liko12 and tic80. It is open-source and fully free. Its goal is to be a fun and useful tool for game development and especially for game jams. It includes build-in tools, such as: code editor, sprite editor, tile map editor, sfx editor, music editor command line and a bunch of other stuff.
The console adds some technical limitations: 192x128 display, 512 8x8 sprites and other. It uses lua as a scripting language.
