I haven't used it myself, but came across these few articles. I'm gonna run through them and see if I can figure more out about it.

I don't have a copy myself, so I would have to purchase it to figure it all out for sure

Dunno if you saw this reply on the PICO-8 video but,

 

Running through Retropie, using a guide here at the Lauching from Emulation Station part (Halfway Down): https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=3935
Also need a Keyboard, F4 in Emulation Station to get to command line: sudo apt-get wiringpi
Pico8 will not load without it.

Either SSH into the device, or hook up a keyboard and press F4 to get to console to run the commands.

Good deal! Glad to hear you were able to get it up and running. I'm debating tossing $15 at it to grab my own copy and check it out.
