Welcome to Desert Plus, the sequel demake to the critically un-aclaimed Desert Bus!

The original

Desert Bus is one of the 6 planned games for the unreleased Sega Genesis game Penn & Teller's Smoke and mirrors. Most of Smoke and Mirrors's games were intended to trick one of the people playing it. Multiple games involved secretly cheating in a 2 player game, but this one is build to enrage the player through monotony. The objective?

Drive from Tucson, Arizona, to Las Vegas, Nevada in real time.

360 miles. A maximum speed of 45 miles per hour. A slight pull to the right. Don't drive off the road, or you'll be towed back to the start, also in real time. Just 8 uninterrupted hours of you, and the road.

What makes this version Plus?

Desert Plus is my PICO-8 demake of Desert Bus, named "plus" not only for the obligatory "p" cameo, but because of all the new content!

New Content?

Uhh.. yeah! There's tons of new content! Like um. The time is local to your timezone, and the palette changes with the time of day! Plus there's fewer things on the road! That's a feature. Not a bug. There is no bug either. Or is there?

...

Enjoy the ride.

Steep enough lines aren't rendered correctly when they originate off screen

This code should draw a completely solid screen. It does not.
