After seeing https://www.quaxio.com/tron/ I wanted to see the smallest version we can do in PICO-8

Currently 251 characters

I'm absolutely sure we can do even better!

(Yes it is useless, yes that probably the lamest game on earth, but who care? :D)

Here's my entry. Tweetron! It's a 2-player TRON game with player win detection. Takes exactly 256 characters (if you remove the title comments).

Well done :D

I wanna try this.
One player mode.

209-chars !

But I think it can be compressed even further. Is 128x128 >32767 ? If not, this next idea might work.

197-chars ! Yeah, baby. :D

cls()rect(0,6,127,127)p,a,s=8768,1,0 f={-1,1,-128,128}::z::x=p%128y=p/128if pget(x,y)>0then print("game over:"..s)stop()end pset(x,y)s+=1flip()for i=0,3 do if btn(i)then a=f[i+1]end end p+=a goto z

If you don't mind the fact it takes 3-lines instead of 1, here it is at 184-chars.
