I don't know if its intended or not, but when I enable has_frame=false and do
windows = fetch("/ram/shared/windows.pod") then its not there. Windows that have no frame don't show up there and I can't find the place that handles which windows are added there. thanks in advance

Well, this is no pong.

This game was made for the NOKIA 3310 JAM 6, in like 2 days or so.
The entire game was made in only like 823 compressed bytes! which is like a 1/20 of the original donkey kong game :O
Check out the original jam post Nokia Jam / Nopong

READ THE CONTROLS!

Left and right to move
DOWN TO GAIN MOMENTUM DOWNWARTS
you have to keep your height to break the blocks

Gain points by breaking blocks,
when you break all blocks you have to die ONCE and then go on the platform again,

Move: arrow keys
Jump: X or V

About:

I watched the first Indian Jones recently, that should explain most.
Also you may find alot of similarities with my other game i just published "downmole". Thats because downmole wasdeveloped it for quite long and I kinda made a mini engine. then this game is basically just the same but using other tiles and so on.
This is a update to the original microjam 34 submission, which you can play on itch. But this one is better.

You land deep below the surface and know nothing, not even the language. It feels still and lost in time, it's silent (I need to make music). Will you encounter "it"? or do you get lost in the depts of the deep.

X to Jump
C to Perform a skill
? + ? + ?

Enter or P to open Map

About:

I made this game mainly to learn better OOP (Object-oriented programming) and to make a nice project.
I also wanted to have a more mysterious approach without telling the player everthing. So there is alot of open space for your own interpretation, or is there...

Will surly make updates with more content soon.

thanks for playing :)

Can Someone please tell me if its even possible to get the spritesheet into a png image.
doesn't have to be png can be any format that can be somehow formated to a png.
I cant even find the gfx file on my file Explorer (not the picotron one, the real one).
The only way I know, would be to make a screenshot of the map where all the tiles are, but is this really the only way?.

thanks in advance

About

Do you know Bitsy, because if you dont you need to check it out.
I wanted to make a game that also serves a template for future works.
Its very simple to work on, since my main focus was to make creating objects easy.
this is a average object in the game:

  {name="milk",
   tile=53,
   pushable=true,

   text="milk"
  },

When you open the project you will be greeted with a message telling you which tabs are important.
there is a documentation but it will be easier if you use a external editor to read.
If you cant code, or dont want to work in pico, you can use tab to open the editor mode.

Now you can place tiles with lmb and get with rmb.
even creating you own things is possible.

You can't save your work during the in-game editor!
Use the code editor if you want to save.

Controls in the editor:

scrollwheel for scrolling
lmb to select or place tiles
rmb to pick a tile
during the creation menu:
- hover over the text button to write, then to confirm lmb
- lmb/rmb to place color or black

Have fun, and share the things you make.

Which game should I finish? You Vote!

Mon, 16 Sep 2024 17:57:53 UTC

I just noticed, why is the page so weird? how can I fix it.

I have a problem

this is how my daily life goes:

I get a awesome idea.
I start forming the vision (in my mind or paper)
Have a full gamdesign document
Next day start new project
Next ~month I work and improve the game every minute possible.
the motivation starts fading
forget for a few days or I work way less
cycle repeats

And just by following this workflow, I have created many many games.
They are (mostly) all basically finished and are missing very little to completion.
Here is a list of all:

Failed Monsters
Man oh man, this is basically my first game and I havent been working on it for months.
This project has been dragging me for years. Because this has been looking like this
- Make new feature
- Oh, 8192...
- Next two weeks optimizing and learning new things
- Oh, I was so bad three weeks ago, this code could be done way better
- One week later, what can I add next?
and thats how time went making this game, which is a shame. To me this game is a result of my learning with pico 8, thats why its full with bugs. and my current skills clash with my old ones. thats why its hard to work on it.
boxig

A two player game ( had to play alone in the gifs )
where each player is a glove and has to try to kick of the other one
a newer verion has diffrent gammodes and more arenas.
Which then are randomly combined to get alot of uniqe combinations.
Jelpeste

Celeste but jelpi
simpleste

Celeste but simple
Duckling

a 1-2 player game having 64 levels, hard-mode, secret-mode and ???.
You can team up with your buddy or play against each other.
diffrent ducks are also here. One of my favorite games I think it only needs music.
Music for Duckling
dungeon game

After seeing bitsy.org i was truly inspired.
making this game was more of a programming practice.
This Game includes the simplest way to be expanded, which you can see in the Gifs.
And if you dont own Pico 8 then there is a option to make new "Objects" (npcs, cats, interactables) inside the
running game, with super easy ui and even a build in sprite editor.
Golf game

A cozy Golf game having currently including following features: multiple golf-balls and goals (not always 1-1),
non-one-screen-levels, nice sfx and much more.
green ( I suck at naming)

A recently made game and really its just missing some map, and like a menu or starting screen.
My goal with this game was to change the visuals which I usually do. I also wanted to make something original, to
show and change the standart. like
the jumping ability which you can test soon, or some other things.
new platformer ( project name, dont ask why )

I am really unsure about this one, I made it a while ago and the learning curve is really steep.
The goal is to get to end very quick, and find the best route. Now there is only one level.
the meist (the most + the heist = the meist money)
My most recent project, its in a very early state.
Goal: rob bank
todo:
- make random bank and more stuff
many more....

Now I need your help to choose which game to be published first or even be finished.

picotrons

[Click to Play]

welcome to picotrons v0.8

A game about picotricity and what you can do with it.

This is a early concept and I would like to build upon this even further. If anyone has any suggestions, please share :)

place picotrons with:

lb: vertical
rb: horizontal
mb: spining
x: source
c: static

Ui:

left side is "edit":
now if you press a picotron it will change to 1 of 4 states
right side is "delete":
now if you press a picotron it will be deleted
the skull delets everything, press it or use the key "d"
Press "I" for the cpu info.

I am struggling to make the picotrons have a stable connection, It doesnt work if you place a static then the source.
You need to place the source always first. So if someone could help resolve this it would be great, thanks in advance.

share your creations, and have fun :)

Mini Cars [early]

It was just an idea I had; I wanted to code working streets, and I did. It was like a fun mini-programming challenge.
There are three cars that you can switch between with [O/C]:
normal: takes a random turn
clockwise: takes a right turn
counter-clockwise: takes a left turn

Use Mouse and X to place cars. Cars on grass will be destroyed.
You have a budget of $100 when a countdown will start; if during that time a car crashes, you lose, but if nothing happens, you win.
Your score is how many cars there are after the countdown.

About

After the streets worked, I had no clue what to do. So I came up with this, which I am not very proud of. I would be happy if someone had a better idea.
Any directions or ideas for the game are welcome, thanks.

This game was made in two days. If anyone wants to make some good music then please do so, thanks.
You can pause to go to clean mode or enable quick death. Also you can reset your highscore.
My best is 65 seconds. I just updated the game, is it better with the more askew lasers?

Stages

Stages will be added to the game the more score you get. if you are at the very beginning, its easy.
But the longer you survive, the more things will be added to the game to make it harder.

Just lasers
Aim Lasers
Super Lasers & even more Aim Lasers
Cluster drop-Lasers & even even more Aim Lasers
...

A simplistic game about lines and green fluid.
If anyone wants to make a soundtrack, fell free to post it in the comments.
I made this game in a week or so.

Controls:

mouse to click and rotate the lines
Space to confirm the build
If The fluid doesn't get everywhere, and you don't finish the level, click anywhere with the mouse to try again.

Goal:

All white should be green, so that doesn't always mean everything has to be connected.

So basically over some time now i've been working on this cute multiplayer game.
And I think everything is done, except the music. Thats because I cant make very good music, and I think that the game deserves better. So if someone wants to make music for a game (check out the gifs) I can send them the game per Discord.
Im not sure where I could ask, so i figured out I can just ask here.

I saw this youtube video a while ago and decided to recreate the stuff from the video
turned out pretty cool. In the code you can easily edit stuff like add more variants, make more particles etc.
you can use it as background, i think it works well.
