Game developers looking for a solution for creating low-poly 3D assets
About picoCAD
picoCAD is a program to build and texture low-poly 3D models. Where many programs for modeling and texturing are bloated and overly complicated, picoCAD aims to make it fun, easy, and accessible by focusing on the bare essentials. It is built on the PICO-8 platform and comes rich with constraints. Experiment to find your own workflow and anything is possible. picoCAD is a standalone application and you don't need PICO-8 to run it. Features include a streamlined and easy-to-use editor, the ability to place and modify meshes to create amazing things, live manipulation of textures and UV coordinates, a unique look with picoCAD's dithered shading, rendering in wireframe, solid fill, or textured modes, and it ships with a manual that is worth reading. You can save files in an easy-to-read text format, export Twitter-friendly GIFs, and export to OBJ/MTL for import into Blender, Unity, etc. A Steam key is included with every purchase.

nano
GNU nano was designed to be a free replacement for the Pico text editor, part of the Pine email suite from The University of Washington. It aimed to "emulate Pico as closely as is reasonable and then include extra functionality". The Debian GNU/Linux distribution, known for its strict standards in distributing truly "free" software (i.e. software with no restrictions on redistribution), would not include a binary package for Pine or Pico. Many people had a serious dilemma: they loved these programs, but the versions available at the time were not truly free software in the GNU sense of the word. GNU nano is a small and friendly text editor. Besides basic text editing, nano offers features like undo/redo, syntax coloring, interactive search-and-replace, auto-indentation, line numbers, word completion, file locking, backup files, and internationalization support. Starting with version 4.0, nano no longer hard-wraps an overlong line by default.

PicoBase
PicoBase is a zero-config backend platform designed for developers who want to move from code to production in minutes. Built with a TypeScript-first approach, it eliminates the need for migrations, Docker setups, or complex configuration files. Developers can install the SDK, write code, and deploy without managing databases or dashboards. Collections auto-create as data is written, simplifying schema management and reducing setup friction. PicoBase includes built-in authentication with a drop-in AuthForm component that supports email, password, and OAuth providers. Realtime subscriptions, file storage, and automatic type generation are integrated directly into the SDK. With a free tier and simple pricing plans, PicoBase enables developers to focus on building features instead of backend infrastructure.
