Hey guys, a little update after a few years :)
Next steps:
- Golfing strokes (with angle / height / strength inputs)
- Change state/colors when the ball is hidden
- Level builder
Keys:
Arrow keys to move the ball,
Z and X to change between maps (used for block testing)

When I was starting programming this Flash experiment by André Michelle really struck me.
It had beauty, conciseness, and I could see the (at the time really cryptic to me) code.
This cartridge is a humble and sort of crude hommage to this good memory
Ideas for performance improvement, increasing particle quantity:
- Maybe using QuadTrees to avoid looping through too far away neighbours
Use arrow keys to move Blob
Z to Attract
X to Repulse
Windy is really moody today... maybe the weather will get better if you play a little bit with her.
My first cartridge is this little physics demo.
Had lots of fun learning PICO-8 with this!
Sorry but there is no playability yet.
Who knows, maybe i'll work a little bit more on it.
Code will be updated over here: https://github.com/cauli/PicoBox
