It's Alive!

It's Halloween and my favorite game this time of the year has always been the legacy flash game titled "Trick or Treat BEAT!" from CartoonNetwork.com since I was 10 years old. Flash Software has been discontinued from Browsers and took with it a library of thousands of games, but thanks to Flashpoint Archive project most of them are preserved on computers.
The problem is, what about handhelds? Well, PICO-8 is the solution! I never coded a game before, this project started with me following the "PICO-8 Top-Down Adventure Game Tutorial" 10 part series by Dylan Bennett, but later I got stuck, until finally a friend suggested me to try ChatGPT for debugging and BAM! Prompt after prompt I started reverse engineering the original Flash Game into a 1 by 1 PICO-8 DeMake. My coding sucks, I bet there are a bunch of redundancies, but the game loop is complete, therefore, IT'S ALIVE! I hope you enjoy. Feedback and even help is welcome.

Está Vivo!

Halloween chegou e meu jogo favorito essa época do ano sempre foi o Flash game "Trick or Treat BEAT!" do CartoonNetwork.com desde que eu era uma criança. Com o software Flash descontinuado nos navegadores, milhares de jogos desapareceram, mas felizmente, a maioria está preservada e disponível em computadores graças ao projeto Flashpoint Archive. Mas e os consoles portáteis? Bem, PICO-8 é a solução! Esta é minha primeira vez escrevendo código pra games, comecei com a série de 10 partes "PICO-8 Top-Down Adventure Game Tutorial" por Dylan Bennett. Só que eventualmente eu travei, até que um amigo sugeriu o ChatGPT para depuração e BAM! Prompt após prompt, fiz engenharia reversa do Flash Game original em um DeMake PICO-8. Meu código tá longe de perfeito, tá cheio de redundâncias, mas o loop do jogo está completo, por isso, ESTÁ VIVO! Espero que gostem. Comentários e assistência são bem-vindos.
