You can read the GP's post, but you were not able to read the text in the TFA?

"Instructions

CTRL-Z, CTRL-Y (or S,F) to undo/redo CTRL-C, CTRL-V to copy and paste between doodles W,R to switch between doodles (or use the menu buttons) TAB to toggle menu Mouse wheel (or e,d) to change brush size RMB to pick up a colour RMB in menu colour palette to select secondary colour (used for patterns) LMB+RMB in menu colour palette to set the background colour

To save all doodles, use the cartridge icon button in the pull-down menu.

Wobblepaint saves data to itself. To start a new wobble cart, type LOAD #WOBBLEPAINT from inside PICO-8 and then save it as something. The data storage is reasonably efficient so you can get around 20~100 doodles to a cart depending on complexity.

To save a gif to desktop, use the gif button to record a second of looping wobble. If you want to record multiple doodles (e.g. for an animation or story), press tab to hide menu, CTRL-8 to start a gif, W,R to flip through the doodles, and then CTRL-9 to save the gif."
