Ho, ho ho! Merry Christmas 2024!

I made a little thing or whatever you want to call it, where you can decorate a little tree with ornaments, and a star.

This is one of my first projects on PICO-8, and my first Release on the BBS!

Intructions

In the very bottom left of the screen, there is a button that lights the tree on fire! Don't worry, it wont damage anything! And the button above that, adds snow!
But the button above THAT, resets the whole tree, smoke appears and then when the smoke fades away, BOOM, nothing on the tree.
Those three buttons use the amazing particle effects from https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=53826 by atzlochtlan, credit to them. *(I hope its not illegal to use without permission...)*

In the very top right corner of the screen there is a button to go into view/screenshot mode, #Merry will appear at the bottom, you can use the a-z, A-Z, 0-9, and Backspace keys, to change the text that appears after the hashtag.

If you move your mouse off the screen in view/screenshot mode, the button in the very top right corner will disappear for optimal screenshot/F7 taking conditions, and if you move your mouse back on screen, it will reappear, but I have found that in Web-View the mouse cannot properly move off the screen.

Just curious, what is the "Profile Header" in the profile settings?
I was thinking it might be like a signature that pops up at the bottom of each message?
But i'm not sure..

I set it to "test" to see if anything would happen.

(im an un-experienced pico-8 dev)

So i've been developing a small program that will allow you to draw things with different colors from the alternate color pallet, so far you can just switch colors from their alternate pallet and regular pallet.

But I realized that if I want, lets say the regular red and the alternate red at the same time, it wouldn't be possible.

So what i'm looking for, is an easy way to fix my mistakes and change my cart so that I can have alternate and regular versions at the same time, of one of the colors. (im aware that each time the alt and reg versions of a color is present, one of the other colors will need to be sacrificed)

So im trying to switch the alternate color pallet back and forth every second with this code.

function _draw()
 pal(8,128+8,flr(time()%2))
end

At first it has light red then waits a second and flips to the dark red, as expected, but then it just stays in the darker red and doesn't flip back for the second time..

All help greatly appreciated!

This is my first post and my first picotron project.

This is a proof of concept.
And this doesn't technically work without the python file.

It may be called a cheater because most of the work is done with a python file that edits the info file.
And only some of it is in picotron.

Go to:
https://lexaloffle.com/media/103068/2024-08-13 23-33-35.mp4
and the main video will be downloaded. Where you can see most of the work.
