NOTES
I was very lucky to be picked for the livestream of the game jam's submissions, and I had a great time working on what I would describe as 'Blood Peggle' - I hope you enjoy it as much as I liked making it. I do think we made it a bit too hard, but given that you can start on any level you like, I've opted to leave it as is.

Posting this because while it's not finished, I think what is there is worth showing.
This is a sort of tribute/love letter to Kero Blaster, I think. I planned it to be a 4 boss metroidvania where you fight bosses, get a new gun that opens new areas, repeat. Unfortunately I ran out of space and ideas shortly after the first boss. Everything up to that is complete and there's a bit more after that's semi-complete.
Let me know what you think. I probably will not finish this, but I would love to create something finished and similar to this someday. There may be some extra, unfinished or removed stuff you can play around with if you mess with the code a bit.
EDIT: Just realized this has the "Put a flip in it!" function added. I didn't make that and I can't recall who did...if you know, tell me and I will credit or remove it as needed.

Hey, everyone! So I am NOT good at math. It's something that I usually figure out once through trial and error and try not to touch ever again. So I'm turning to the more mathematically capable among us to help me decide on something: should I use a new method of determining the distance between two x/y coordinates?
Here's what I've been using up to this point:
function dist(x,y,x2,y2) --gets the distance between --two points. faster than --the previous version. local dx, dy = x - x2, y - y2 local res=(dx * dx + dy * dy) if res<0 then res=32767 end return res end |
This is the best I could figure out, and I'm sure it can be improved. It overflows, despite my best efforts to prevent it, but it was passable as long as I worked within its limitations.
Here's what I'm thinking might work better:
function xdist(x,x2) --gets the distance between --two coordinates. return abs(x-x2) end |
In theory, this has no complicated math, and could be used to build another function with the same purpose as the original, even though this only works with two. But here's my question: is it faster? Is the math right?

Are there any examples in the BBS of a cart faking a game crash as part of the game? IE printing out a false error message? I was thinking about this and wondered if anybody had done it.

A work in progress game I'm uploading for the sake of feedback. It's quite unfinished, and ends at the first planned boss (not actually implemented yet, sadly.)
Arrow Keys to move/jump
Z to use selected weapon
X to change selected weapon
Please let me know what you think.

How would you guys introduce someone to Pico-8? I guess I'm really asking two things here...how would you introduce someone to the playing side of Pico-8, or the making side of Pico-8? I've been thinking about it but it's kinda hard to explain the concept and appeal sometimes.

Dungeon Layout Generator
Description
A generator based on this cart by @johanp. It uses a similar idea to place rooms, but is much more simplistic (I prefer to try and figure things out on my own before I dig into other people's code.) This particular version continuously generates new dungeons while running. Feel free to reuse this if you like.

A dungeon generator that I cobbled together, loosely following the methods described here. Please forgive my trash code. It's somewhat variable, but has an issue with mazes not being entirely connected together. I was hoping I could get some advice on how to fix that by uploading here. Feel free to use this for your own projects, if you want.

It's a neat little title screen with a short musical loop and music jingle. Might end up being part of a new project, might not! I had fun making it, at any rate.

Surrealist Garden
Description
This is a quick little experiment whipped up in about two hours. It's janky and the code is bad (I got lazy) but even though it didn't turn out like I wanted, I think it's still pretty fun to look at. Enjoy!

Bingus Finder
Gold Edition
Disclaimer: This is a trash game made for the joy of making, much in the same vein as Bert: Get That Sports! So don't play it if you're looking for a real game, and also maybe don't play it if you have epilepsy problems. I dunno.

A lot of stuff, but mostly background. I'm trying some new stuff with entity processing.
UI improvements. Hold the down key to access items.

This is a work in progress randomly generated marble game. I have to shout out Eggnog, who made the excellent game PicoPutt. You should go play that, this game is only possible because of his excellent collision methods, and it's not nearly as good.

A tiny musical loop. While it's not particularly pleasant to listen to, I think making it helped me learn a lot about how Pico-8 music works.

Trying out an idea.
Well, I stand corrected. If you only process the necessary parts of the screen and fake the rest, you can get the effect to take up much less CPU.

Two Minutes To Sunset
You have a city full of people to evacuate and only two minutes to do it before the sun sets and zombies swarm you. Use your helicopter to evacuate the civilians and hold off the zombies with soldiers, snipers, barricades and missile strikes. Play with either a mouse or the standard controls, whichever suits you best! Enjoy RTS-esque gameplay in Campaign, Free Play and Siege modes, with 8+ maps to battle across. Also, George Washington is there!
Controls
This game can be played with a mouse, or with the standard Pico-8 controls. When using Pico-8 controls, the D-Pad moves the cursor, O left clicks and X right clicks. Left click to interact and place things, Right click to clear whatever you're interacting with.
