Hey everyone. Welcome to my new series on how to create a tower defense game using PICO-8.

If we're going to make our game look good, we need some sort of transition (not just a straight cut from one state to the next). I'll talk through a very simple "wipe", using the PICO-8's "clip" function.

For those that don't know, PICO-8 is a "Fantasy Console" allowing you to create small compact games very quickly. It's loads of fun.
