Just finished my first PICO-8 game! :D

It's an absolute mess - but that's to be expected, I guess.

I would appreciate any feedback on it - I'll probably update it soon if anything is terribly wrong with it.

TODO:

  • Nothing, right now!

DONE:

  • Made the lines more readable!
  • More fill patterns, circles and lines now fade out smoothly
  • Removed "lines" from the sidebar, as it wasn't very useful
  • Palette names are now centred and labelled
  • Lives counter no longer goes weird on the gameover screen
  • Circles are now more likely to spawn nearby you, making it harder to just stand still

http://8x8.me/ was very useful

Got a score of 273, @naughtrain.

Suggest there be a wider range of patterns for both rectangles and circles, maybe even 16.

This may help:

Thanks!

I'll try adding them - it'd probably make the game a lot easier to read

fun! got 629
I thought the palette button on the menu wasn't working -- I tried pressing Z on it but later I figured out I needed to use L/R

I really do like the new patterns, @naughtrain !

Managed to get a score of 339 this time. Well done ! Gold star work.

I would like to suggest you add BLUE to your color set. It could be #13 and #12 or #1 and #13, or custom.

To do custom, when on the menu option, press 🅾️ or ❎ to bring up new menu to change both foreground and background. Could be three menu options.

<- FOREGROUND COLOR ->
<- BACKGROUND COLOR ->
RETURN

Where you use the up and down to select the 3-options and LEFT and RIGHT to change colors #0 - #15.

Use use cartdata() to save top score and color preferences. dget(0) dget(1) and dget(2) should cover it.

Information on saving this data can be found HERE:

Looking good! :-D

an idea would be to add a effect to show that you got damaged
otherwise great game!
