They also have a pretty interesting Voxel fantasy console: http://www.lexaloffle.com/voxatron.php . This was funded through a Kickstarter, and a lot of backers are pretty bitter over the progress and direction of the project - just check out the forums. I love the idea, but I'm very sad that this isn't open source.
The lexaloffle forums? I don't see much bitterness there?

I got excited about Pico-8 when I was reading, then I noticed its by the voxatron dev, THEN I notice it says if you already bought voxatron Pico-8 is free?!
I was hyped, now I'm hyped and happy. I was thinking about buying Pico-8, I wonder if this is a good business decision or not... I'll probably be raving on about it for a while now so the word of mouth might be worth $15.
Kinda makes me think 0x10c, developing games within a game. Someone should build hardware for this to run on :p
EDIT: reminds me a little bit of antirez' LOAD81 environment which is also, a bit of a retro programming experience:
I put together a tutorial on writing a simple game in PICO-8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuaLuMhwcc8 its really a fun platform to play with
Only thing about PICO-8 that makes no sense: the 32k limit. Otherwise, an awesome set of limitations.
Who knows, perhaps some day there will be dirt cheap PICO-8 hardware?
