Escape Toaster Hell
This game was made for the Illinois State University 2023 Winter Game Jam. Theme: Stronger together
Features:
- Esoteric Toaster Hell
- Orthographically Projected 3-D Graphics
- High Score List
- Bread
Technicalities:
The 3-D effects in this game were achieved by layering 2-D cross sections of a toaster, The images were layered based on the screen position, to achieve an orthographic effect. These computations are relatively light and can be easily handled by pico-8's limited CPU. The platforms are similarly rendered, but slight perspective is added by calculating the two sides of the platform separately.
Nemonic Crypt
Nemonic Crypt is a self-made-bullet-hell-lite-roguelike.
Fight your way through 5 randomly generated floors in search of all 6 crystals.
Each Crystal can be used as a weapon against the monsters in each room, but beware: the strength and number of monsters will also grow as you adventure further into the crypt.
If you miss an enemy with a shot, the energy bullet will bounce around the level, giving it another opportunity to hit. However, the crystals energy bullets can also damage you!
Features:
- Randomly generated crypt layout
- Daily Crypt that is the same for all players and repeatable throughout the day
Nemo's Snake!
A colorful snake clone.
This is my first game, feedback is welcome!
This game started as a simple snake clone I made in a day. I kept adding features until I ran out of tokens
Features:
Dynamic Colors and Music
With the Dynamic skin set, The color of the fruit you eat will be the color of the segment that is added to your snake.
With the music turned on, the music will get more intense as you get closer to the highscore.
(shoutout to Dev Quest on youtube for the dynamic music tutorial)
Juicy Menu
The base game of snake doesn't take many tokens, so I spent most of the rest on a fancy menu system.
