Pico8 carts are just a special flavor of png. I would try running it directly or if it won’t run them with the png extension just rename the file from .png -> .p8 without converting and see if that works

Although if you are having trouble you might have more luck getting started with the built in SPLORE command

This might be easier to get started with since it will all get wired up automatically for you
I'll try renaming. Thing is I play carts outside of pico8 and don't have a copy. A machine I got has a pico emu so I got some carts. It just cannot read the raw ong and instead sees it as boxart.
Ill try renaming
Fake-08 is explicitly supports p8.PNG files: https://github.com/jtothebell/fake-08
However, not all games are compatible with fake-08.
