Formula

G.f.: (theta_3(x) - 1)^8 / 256, where theta_3() is the Jacobi theta function.

Maple

b:= proc(n, t) option remember;
      `if`(n=0, `if`(t=0, 1, 0), `if`(t<1, 0, add((s->
      `if`(s>n, 0, b(n-s, t-1)))(j^2), j=1..isqrt(n))))
    end:
a:= n-> b(n, 8):
seq(a(n), n=8..64);  # Alois P. Heinz, Jan 31 2021

Mathematica

nmax = 64; CoefficientList[Series[(EllipticTheta[3, 0, x] - 1)^8/256, {x, 0, nmax}], x] // Drop[#, 8] &
