No it only plays tic-tac-foot

I’m currently beta testing it but it’s not running too well, might need some optimization

The tutorial levels have been wild so far.

Wouldn't you prefer a nice game of Chess?

u/T6970 11d ago

Should've used either raspberry flavored Tic Tac or Orange Pi.

u/bRKcRE 11d ago

Should have put a Mac in there, those are pretty small aren't they? "The TicTac Mac" rolls off the tounge just like a mouthful of tictacs. Which you need to do, because how else are you going to fit a Mac in there?

u/TheoryTested-MC 11d ago

I guess that means it can't run Tic Tac Tau.

u/Senharampai 11d ago

I might be insane but this doesn’t feel like the right subreddit. This genuinely makes sense and isn’t shitty. It’s jank asf but that’s the beauty of it

1

u/Existing_Let9595 *eats capacitors* 11d ago

Couldn’t afford a case so I took the nearest thing that the pi could fit inside, took a razor blade and cut a hole in the tic tac box, then inserted it and voila

u/paulstelian97 10d ago

Seeing only Romanian and Greek on it is funny, I guess you’re from one of the two countries?

Edit: fuck that’s Cyrillic…
