PicoBrained

A small, configurable brainf*ck code editor, interpreter and visualiser, while only using the default Pico8 scheme.

Picobrained is a...

Code editor

Code interpreter

Code visualiser

Configurable code editor

And yes, the configuration persists, even if you reset the console!

Clipboard

The editor fully supports pasing and copying to your clipboard.
The catch is that the Pico8 needs you to press Ctrl+V while the console is focused to have access to your latest clipboard entry.

So, when copying code from an outside source, make sure to press Ctrl+V while the console is focused before pressing "Paste Clip" in the menu.

Controls

Move the cursor with the DPad.

While holding the O buttons:
Press Left/Right to switch the BrainF*ck tokens.
Press Down to bring down the menu.

Press X to place down a token.

Oh, River... you really want to do this, huh? Well.. who am I to stop you... but, keep in mind, Becoming the new rain maker will not be easy.

Your name is River, you are a 19 year old trans girl looking to become the new rain maker and save your town's crops from drought and death, and the gem is right there, were the stories all false?

Exposition

This is my first go at a game like this!!! I've never worked on a game that required design and wasn't completely endless! I'm really looking for constructive criticism and code suggestions! I really wish to improve my code and my game design abilities!! The dungeon is completely the same every time as I didn't know the Pico8 could do procedural generation. :(
The game is inspired by The Binding Of Isaac!!

Controls, and other stuff

This is kinda important as I was super limited with what I could do with the controls!\

You aim with the mouse, and clicking will make it rain once you've picked up the gem!
You move with the DPad, and pressing the O Button will make River "think" and unable to move, this is where you can can cycle your inventory, pressing DPad Left or DPad Right will move the inventory cursor!
Pressing O while hovering above a Chest/Item will pick up said item.
Pressing X will consume the item the inventory cursor is on.

The controls on your keyboard are as follows:
DPad -> Arrow keys
O button -> Z/C keys
X button -> X/V keys

The game is completely open source and licensed under MIT!

Collision Template

This cart is a small template for ground collision!
I struggled with learning collisions for about two years in the past. And I do not want for ANYONE to go through that, EVER!
This is the cart I used to learn. I really hope it will help someone, it sure helped me!

The comments I left in the code try to explain what's happening as best as I could

Quirks

I used table:function() instead of table.function().
What this means is that the function is called with a secret argument, self!

I also used num \ other_num instead of num / other_num.
That is floored division! If either numbers are decimals, they will be floored down.

Controls

Jump with the O key
Move with the dpad.

Verdant Vanguard

Oh no! Your forest has been invaded by nasty creatures!
It is your duty to save it.

Verdant Vanguard is a turn based, endless little game about protecting what's yours, it is a proof of concept. It is also my first pico8 game in more than two years! I hope I improved since last time hehe :3

The game is published under the MIT license and it's cleaned up source is available on my CodeBerg

aquatic ventures is a game where you're a fish, running from other fish!

I know, not that much fun, but it was fun making it!

My first game.

Catchit 1.1

Added better graphics.
Added high score mechanic.
Fruits fall faster over time.

Catchit 1.2
ALL SCORES RESET.
I have reset all scores due to the change in gameplay, it'd be unfair.

Added boost meter.
