The Wave

A simple and relaxing experiment how to draw a wave. Now just some clouds, a ship, and some music is needed...

deserialization_v1

This cart is a simple routine to deserialize a string into a table value. I know that there are other routines out there but this routine is simple and small. No serialization routine is give as it is assumed that the text is entered manually. If a list of items is added then remember that a final ',' is needed to actually add the item to the table.

Untergang in der Feuerdämmerung

An entry in the Lovebyte 2022 https://lovebyte.party/ and the program achieved the fifth place in the Tiny Executable Graaphics Competition.

The task in this competition was to achieve a graphic with a program of a length of at most 256 Bytes. We used a Fractal to generate the scenery mathematically. In the .p8 file, it was also necessary to cut some text in the header to meet the size requirements.

Here is the whole code in its full glory:

g=127for x=0,g do
for y=0,g do
v=x*3/g-2k=v w=y*4/g-3l=w i=0while v*v+w*w<4and i<g do
t=v*v-w*w+k
w=l+abs(2*v*w)i+=1v=t
end
c=(g-i)/g*13if(c*y>c*89)c=1
pset(x,y,c)i%=9pset(i*91%g,i*g%70,7)line(6+c%4,83+c%8,c,91)end
end
while(1)?

Only 254 bytes...

Mystical Symbol Generator: Circular

While browsing I found a cart https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=4076 having a text entry and I though that it should be used to generate some mystical art. Use this cart to enter a text (finish with Jelpi) and get your own mystical symbol. The keys for up, down, left, right can be used to rotate the symbol.

Can you figure out how the symbol is generated and how to read it?

Butterfly images

In this cart butterfly images are collected. This was done while experimenting with converting images to the PICO-8 and storing them in the cartridge. Compression is still missing.
