Escape Toaster Hell
This game was made for the Illinois State University 2023 Winter Game Jam. Theme: Stronger together
Features:
- Esoteric Toaster Hell
- Orthographically Projected 3-D Graphics
- High Score List
- Bread
Technicalities:
The 3-D effects in this game were achieved by layering 2-D cross sections of a toaster, The images were layered based on the screen position, to achieve an orthographic effect. These computations are relatively light and can be easily handled by pico-8's limited CPU. The platforms are similarly rendered, but slight perspective is added by calculating the two sides of the platform separately.

Very polished game, all the animations and the particles look great. The 3d effect looks stunning too. I only played it for a bit, but i will definitely come back to this game. Also I think that the controls during the platformer-escape are kinda floaty, which makes it hard to navigate maybe you could make it less slippery? Anyways, great game :)
