Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Tutorial for Pico8 on Recalbox?
So, it sounds like what you're experiencing is just plain old compatibility issues with Retro8, and you should file them as bugs on Retro8's issue page.
- Is Pico 8 available on RP2+?

What's the best real handheld to play PICO-8 on the go?
I'm guessing you've already seen/tried this? "GitHub - Jakz/retro8: PICO-8 implementation with SDL2/SDL1.2 and RetroArch back-ends" https://github.com/Jakz/retro8

Pico-8 on the PocketGo S30?
I found Pico-8 when I installed the ADAM distribution on my RG350M. I downloaded a cool curated romset of about 100 PICO-8 games (https://github.com/Jakz/retro8/files/5432890/cartridges.zip)

Celeste Classic Vita Port
There are projects for porting the full Pico8 engine to different platforms, but as it is a closed source project the actual process is closer to making an emulator than a port. The main one I know of is Retro8, but there are a lot of others.

#LowResNX is now available as a #libretro core.
a pico8 core is in development though: https://github.com/Jakz/retro8

Pico3D: Open World 3D Game Engine for the PicoSystem (RP2040 Microcontroller)
No in this case the Pico part comes from its use of the Pi Foundation's Pico microcontroller. There are projects[1] that are working on porting PICO-8 to the Picosystem. Unfortunately it will never be fully compatible with the PICO-8 standards as it isn't powerful enough but some games work.

PicoSystem
Some folks are working on it, but as far as they know, many Pico8 games may never run on it: https://github.com/yocto-8/yocto-8

Making fifty TIC-80 carts in a weekend
Sure! Feel free to message me in github or via email.
I've abandoned my Pico8 on RP2040 port though, a lot of games simply need more memory than there's available. There's this crazy guy: https://github.com/yocto-8/yocto-8/blob/main/doc/extmem.md that managed to get external RAM over SPI working (RP2040 does not support memory remapping)
On ESP32 with SPIRAM (/PSRAM) Pico8 is definitely achievable, and _most_ games will run at a playable frame rate, but some won't; as an example "Rockets!", does too many calculations per frame to run smoothly, and the Lua overhead starts showing so I'm exploring ideas like an optimizing compiler that can run off-console, etc.
I don't thing TIC-80 will be doable, the constraints are significantly more relaxed. A Pico8 framebuffer is 32KB; in TIC-80 it is 64KB (and this doubles with buffering/DMA) but most importantly, code is no longer something simple like Lua

Thumby! They've been shipping for a while now! How many of y'all are playing with or coding for it?
Currently no, but someone is currently working on a project to implement it (https://github.com/yocto-8/yocto-8). Personally would love to see it completed as I have a few RP2040 chipset based things now.

There’s no support for mapping external memory but you can apparently get creative: https://github.com/yocto-8/yocto-8/blob/main/doc/extmem.md
