Tiny Rogue

got this when selecting TOOLS in my inventory
Was there meant to be a screenshot or another part of the message? Was it a bug/crash?
Replied on Twitter, will try and track down the bug and fix it.
Is the version on the thumby arcade a demo too?
Yes. It includes the thumby build, plus the pico-8 code, and other various builds.
is the thumby build any different?
Should be the same thumby build here as on the thumby website, closest thing there is is that you also get the picodisplaypack build to for python, which does have some minor code tweaks to make it work.
