Introduction

In Dice Mice, players take the role as a posh mouse fighting through trash monsters that have taken over your land. In your disposal you have five dice that can be used for attacking the monsters five different cores.

Defeat monsters by attacking their heart core, but just focusing on that core won’t do you any good, you have to take into account the attack and defence core as well. If you are feeling adventurous during a fight then try to go for a quintuple for an instant victory!

Just know that if things get tough there is always the flee core; run from the battle and try a new one! Maybe the next encounter will be in your favor? Or if you are in a real pinch, try to build on the bandage core to heal during battle!

After each defeated monster you earn loot, you will need it to defeat your nemesis!

May the odds be ever in your favor!

Introduction

Stretched City is a tiny room editor for PICO-8 games.
It can be used for other programs as well, but then you have to parse the string yourself.

The tool works in the web, but for a more smoother experience I would recommend you to use it in PICO-8.

A room is 16x16 in tile-size. It goes from row to row writing down the id of that tile. 0 represent an empty tile.
So if you want to use this in another program it should not be that difficult to parse the string.

To load your string into the map in PICO-8 use this method:

function load_room(room_str)
    local room=split(room_str)
    local m_x=0
    local m_y=0
    for i=1,#room do
        mset(m_x,m_y,room[i])
        if m_x < 15 then
            m_x+=1
        else
            m_x=0
            m_y+=1
        end
    end
end

Controls

Move cursor

Keyboard: Arrow keys | Controller: D-pad or Joystick

Keyboard: Z | Controller: A / Y

Copy tile

Stand still for a while on a tile you want to copy

Press P to open the pause menu where you can Save/load and Delete current room.

Have fun and hopefully this can be used in some ways when you need a lot of levels in your PICO-8 game!

Introduction

In FIGHTY LONG LEGS, players take on the role of small blobs that wants to be the champion of stretching. To do that they need to knock each other out from the arena. The more damage you have taken, the easier is for you to be knocked out so be careful. Also attacking too much will send you into a fatigue state were you can't attack anymore so keep in track of your stamina is crucial to win. When no hearts are left one victor will emerge!

To make this more interesting powerups will spawn during the match. I won't spoil what happens when you pick them up though!

You can play this game both by yourself or with a friend/nemesis.

(All actions that you can take are indicated at the bottom screen)

Rules

Every turn starts by you drawing five cards from your deck. Your deck always starts with the same ten cards, seven mediocre bards and the three common guards. In order to win you will need to buy and defeat cards in the middle lane to build a better deck. To do that, first draw from your deck by pressing the action button, then select which card you want to play and again presss the action button. After that, select the monster or minion you want to slay / buy. If you want read more about the cards, press the secondary button on them at any time.

Cards

There are three types of cards:

Minions

Cost Gold to buy and are indicated by the color of light blue (or brown for common cards). When bought, they are put in the graveyard and will be shuffled in the deck when there are no cards left to draw from your deck. The effects of the minions are activated when they are played.

Monsters

Cost Attack to slay and are indicated by the color of dark purple. Monsters in the lane attack every turn for one damage so keep that in mind. The effects are played out when slaying them. After doing its effects the monster is removed from play.

Bosses

Each boss has different effects. They will only attack when their criteria are met. The criteria are always depending how many turns a player have taken. When the number of turns corresponds to the criteria, the boss will attack and the turns will reset to zero. Bosses will also boost up their attack, they also follow a similar pattern to the criteria. Every turn end the boss will add one point to the boost, when all the dots are filled up the boss attack will increase and the dots wil reset to zero.

One really important thing to keep in mind is to remember to attack the boss, this will attack the boss with your remaining Attack so if you plan to slay monsters do that first. An option exist in the pause menu to auto attack on turn end.

End turn

If you have no cards left to play and you have done everything you planned this turn, press the action button on your deck and the turn will end. Three things will always be checked. First all your resources will reset (excluding block that will reset last). Then if monsters exist in the lane they will attack. And lastly if the criteria of the boss are met, it too will attack. Then five new cards can be drawn again and a new turn starts.

Game end

Each game will have you trying to reduce the current boss health to zero. If you manage that you will be rewarded with lots of XP to unlock more bosses and backgrounds. If the boss manages to reduce your health to zero the game ends as well, only rewarding you XP for how much health you managed to reduce from the boss.

Zelda + Wario-Ware + Golf = Legend of Hippo

This is one of my most ambitious PICO-8 game yet!

You control a small hippo that have an ability to transform into a ball with three different forms.
To win a level you have to follow the rules, they are always visible in top center of the screen.
Much like Wario-Ware the time is always ticking so you have to be quick!

Controls

Move: Arrow keys
Dash: Hold Z and release, the longer you hold the faster the speed
Switch form: X

Update 1.1

This patch mostly focusing on making it more easy to prepare for a level. This should make remix less frustrating. Also some small polish on levels and graphics.

  • Shows instructions for longer time to prepare for the current level
  • Can change ability during instruction splash
  • You and enemies are visible during switching of levels
  • Remember what level you are on when you go back to menu
  • Added animated flames
  • Some levels are easier
  • Some more polish on details on some levels

FORMS

1: Push

Pushes enemies away, if an enemy is hit and collides with a wall with enough speed, it dies.

2: Jump

You are invincible and go through most of the objects. Cannot kill though.

3: Bomb

You transform into a bomb, after some time it explodes, destroying enemies and most objects.

Good luck and have fun!
