This is an update to the MicroPython version that adds an on-device REPL, a new Text Editor system app, and MP3 streaming support.

Brief Changelog:

  • On-device REPL
  • Audio speed fixes
  • MP3 support
  • Text Editor system app
  • Ctrl + Up/Down to jump up/down functionality in TextEditor and TextBox instances
  • Added contributing guide (straightforward steps for contribution)
  • Several other improvements that make the firmware lighter and faster

Notes:

  • MP3 streaming is not supported on the RP2040 (for now it's blocked in FileBrowser, but you can bypass this with a custom script)
  • The PicoW's Wi-Fi driver is failing, so you'll need a Pico2W or Pimoroni 2W for networking.
  • If exiting the Ghouls game causes the device to freeze, rebooting will resolve the issue and your stats should still be saved. The permanent fix is to delete the assets folder from picoware/apps/games/ghouls and let the firmware re-download the assets.
