Results screen after playing a song
Highscores for each difficulty
Support for hitting multiple notes on the same frame (doubles/chords)

Remapping keyboard inputs in HTML5 export

Mon, 26 Apr 2021 17:00:05 UTC

I'm currently working on a game that requires ~10 different buttons. As it stands, I'm using all of the inputs from controller 1 (Up,Down,Left,Right,O,X,Pause) aswell as a few inputs from controller 2 (O,X)

This game will be exported to HTML5 to be played in browser, and I was wondering if there was any way to modify the exported js/html files to allow me to rebind player 1's O/X to be Q and W, and player 2's O/X to be O and P.

This would also mean I would need to rebind the pause button to ONLY be Enter instead of being both Enter and P.
(I use the Enter key as an input in my game by using poke to disable the pause menu)

If anyone knows of a solution please let me know, it would be greatly appreciated!

PS: If remapping the pause button isn't possible then I can work around that, I just need the ability to rebind the main controls :)

Play as a marble that can slow time and shatter other marbles by charging into them. Go for a highscore across 3 different difficulties, collect power-ups, and try to survive for as long as you can!

How To Play

Use Arrow Keys/D-Pad to roll your marble around the map. Hold Z/C/🅾️ to slow time and charge your marble in the direction you're holding. Release to send your marble flying in that direction. While your marble has a flaming trail, it will shatter anything it touches. Shattering other marbles has a chance to drop power-ups (The higher the combo, the higher the chance) and large marbles have a greater chance of dropping power-ups. Hearts will heal your marble by one heart, Invincibility will allow you to shatter marbles without charging, and x2 Charge makes your charge shots x2 faster while also instantly shattering large marbles. Have fun!

Voxatron crashes when loading .p8 files

Tue, 28 Jul 2020 03:08:46 UTC

Whenever I try importing a .p8 file into an object, Voxatron just instantly crashes with no error. I saw someone else post about this on the BBS to no helpful response :(

Hoping this gets fixed or hoping there's a known workaround
