Made in two weeks for #LOWREZJAM2020. Theme is Life as an NPC.

What is a Tweetcart?
Tweetcarts are Pico-8 programs written in 280 chars or less (the size of a tweet!).
For example, Eclipse is just this code snippet:
circfill(63,63,10,0)pal({129,1,130,2,136,8},1)::_::circ(63,63,10,7)x,y=rnd(128),rnd(128)a=atan2(x-63,y-63)c=pget(x,y)if c!=0then
c=rnd()>.9and c-1or c
pset(x+cos(a),y+sin(a),c)end
goto _ |
Since their so small (even by Pico-8 standards) it's possible to fit them all in a single cart!
Special Thanks
- Michał Rostocki for their amazing tweets and a bevy of techniques.
- Marta Fijak for their lovely tweetcart tutorial series and tweetcarts.
- Zep for creating this wondrous artform.
Updates
- 0.0.5 Made screen flips work with menu. Fixed issue with Rorsach. Fixed Burning goto _. Added more carts.
- 0.0.4 Fixed bug with menu dset
- 0.0.3 Ability see the carts while still on the menu. Added even more carts.
- 0.0.2 Added a couple of carts, made menu prettier.
- 0.0.1 Initial Version with most existing carts.
Pico-8 occasionally seems to forget to select a new line if you've copied something and then create a new tab. Because there is no line selected, pasting seems to crash it
Most of the time a new line is selected after creating and switching to a tab, but occasionally it doesn't. I was able to reproduce although unsure if there's another step (may have to do with switch tabs or alt tabbing).
Controls
- Arrow keys to move cursor
- Z to select a piece and for confirm moving
- X to deselect a piece
Rules
- Pieces move like rooks (four directions, infinite distance).
- Pieces are captured when sandwiched between two opposing pieces.
- Corners and central tile can't be moved onto except for the King. They count as a opposing piece when capturing.
Winning
- Attackers win if they can capture the King by having pieces/corners/board edges on all four of the king's side.
- Defenders win if the king gets to any of the four corners.
bbs version can show new chars. neat!
