So I did this little pomodoro timer today for fun. It implements 20 minute work cycles with 5 minutes of rest between. For every work cycle you complete, you get a gold coin. :)

The code is horrifyingly rushed and sloppy so take it for what it is ... a project to while away a lazy Sunday.

I even wrote a proportionally spaced text routine for the 3 lines of text this thing displays. I'm THAT kind of nerd.

I really hope I'm doing this correctly.

Anyway, this is my first project - done entirely so I could get a handle on PICO, on Lua and the various processes.

It's a basic breakout game with endless bricks coming down from the top - it even has a few power up bricks!

If the bricks reach the bottom or you lose your ball, it's game over!

Here's hoping this works... heh.

Now ... I have no idea why it's "Untitled". I set up the top of my lua file like the code below ... isn't that correct?

Some retro music for your coding and zoning ...

So I'm new ... sorry if this is the wrong place to ask about bugs BUT I have a weird behavior in the sound effect editor.

Mainly that if I hit CTRL+Z (out of habit from other apps) it doesn't undo anything AND has the rather unfortunate effect of wiping out every wave I have in my file. They all reset to nothing.

So ...is this a PICO-8 bug? Or is my computer doing something weird?
