I made this game in less than two days. I hope you enjoy it!

How to play:
Press X to rotate your multicolor orb clockwise. When a smaller orb drops down from the top, spin your orb until the matching color is facing up. If an orb drops into the wrong color, your score will reset and you have to restart.

My dad got a score of 77. I have a high score of 91.
Currently, the highest high score is held by @A_feetballer with a score of 140.

Post your scores in the comments!

MORE COLORS TRICK

by Ununlucky

[Click to Play]

Run the cart and you will see more colors that are not in pico 8 how I got them is I drew a square of one color and then a square of another and used _update60() to change them really fast and it goes too fast for our eyes so it looks like the colors are combined.
the squares on top are the solid ones and the ones on the bottom are checkered. the ones in the middle are normal pico 8 colors.
feel free to use this in any of your games.

Echolocate 1.5

by Ununlucky

[Click to Play]

A game where you control a bat and use echolocate to see the things in the shadows.
some objects restart the game when you touch them so be careful!
echos will bounce off of all objects except the player and air.
use ⬆️⬇️⬅️➡️ to move and ❎ to echolocate.
currently the cart is mainly a play/test area cuz I am working on the map.
Feel free to post any echolocation art in the comments!
Feel free to make your own play area and share it but YOU MUST:

there is a config page section that you can change easily
Have Fun!

1.5: fixed echolocating bouncing

Diary of a Raspberry Pi Zero (That does not work)

Wed, 29 Apr 2020 15:27:32 UTC

Soo... I bought a raspberry pi zero and I'm trying to get it to work so I can run and create pico 8 games on it. But every time I try to make it boot, it does this:

.
In short, it does nothing. Has anyone had this problem and maybe solved it? Thanks!

Oh, and we should have a name for pi's that run pico 8 games that we all use.

(I tried to load the raspberry logo into pico 8. it didn't work)

Should there be a "Report as Revealed Easter Egg"?

Wed, 29 Apr 2020 14:53:38 UTC

So.. let's say that someone tells how to have infinite health in the comments of a game called "banana run". Should there be a "Report as Revealed Easter Egg"? This would help conceal the secrets of the game. Do you think there should be this? Or should it only be available to the dev?
NOTE: I have not heard anything about this being added. I just thought it would be handy.

How do I make monsters/actors spawn with code in Voxatron?

Tue, 28 Apr 2020 17:54:11 UTC

So I know how to make actors and objects appear at different times but how do I make them appear after something happens for example:
An enemy gets defeated. How do I make it drop, say, a laser powerup?
The player steps on a button. How do I change the floor from water to jelly?
The player defeats an actor. How do I make chocolate appear?
I could go on forever.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks!

A great heroic meadow adventure. There are no bugs (that I know of)
If your wondering how I got the name, well, it was generated by @thattomhall RNDGAME.
The only thing I need to make now is the map.
If anyone knows how to make bridges that you could walk across and below, that would help a lot!

The little white bar at the top of the screen is your health
If you run out of health then the game will restart
The bee at the bottom left of the screen means if you press 🅾️ you will release a bee
If you see the outline of a bee in the bottom left corner that means you don't have a bee to release
Every three seconds a bee spawns in the honeycomb walk over the honeycomb to collect it
Bees spread pollen
If a weed touches pollen then it will die

Have Fun!

There is a poll for this game. please vote!

How do I save this??? Merge Chickens

Mon, 20 Apr 2020 22:59:35 UTC

This has been solved. you may still look at the non-working code and working code.

So for my Merge Chickens game, I have a limit of 64 chickens because there are only 64 save spaces, but when I try to make it so I can save more chickens all I get is:

here is my code:

--savebuk() and loadbuk()

function savebuk()
    local d=0
    for x=0,15 do--go thrugh all of
        for y=0,15 do--the map tiles
            local i=0
            local s=0
            if mget(x,y)>63 then
                i=mget(x,y)
            --if this tile is a chicken
            --set i to the sprite number
            end
            if x+1<16 then
                if mget(x+1,y)>63 then
                    s=mget(x+1,y)*1000
                --if the tile next to the
                --tile at x is not off the
                --map and if the tile is a
                --chicken set s to the tile
                --times 1000
                end
            else
                if mget(0,y)>63 then
                    s=mget(0,y)*1000
                    --if the tile next to the
                    --tile at x is off the map
                    --do the same thing but
                    --with zero
                end
            end
            dset(d,i+s)
            --save i+s here is an example
            --i=109
            --s=72
            --s gets multiplied by 1000
            --s=72000
            --s+i=72109
            --then save that is save spot
            --d
            d+=1
            --on to the next save spot!
        end
    end
end

function loadbuk()
    for d=0,63 do
        --all commented lines is an
        --example
        local val=dget(d)
        --val=72109
        local s=flr(val/1000)
        --s=72.109 rounded down
        local s2=flr(val/1000)*1000
        local i=val-s2
        --i=72109-72000
        --i=109
        local x=flr(rnd(15))
        local y=flr(rnd(15))
        --find a random position
        if mget(x,y)<64 then
            mset(x,y,s)
            --and if there is not a bird
            --already there place s
            --there
        end
        x=flr(rnd(15))
        y=flr(rnd(15))
        if mget(x,y)<64 then
            mset(x,y,i)
        end
        --do the same thing with i
    end
end

This is the WORKING code

--savebuk() and loadbuk()

function savebuk()
    for sp=64,127 do
        local num=0
        for x=0,15 do
            for y=0,15 do
                if mget(x,y)==sp then
                    num+=1
                end
            end
        end
        dset(sp-64,num)
    end
end

function loadbuk()
    for sp=64,128 do
        local num=dget(sp-64)
        for i=1,num do
            x=flr(rnd(15))
            y=flr(rnd(15))
            if mget(x,y)<64 then
                mset(x,y,sp)
            end
        end
    end
end
