PicoCo Clicker 🍪

A bite-sized idle empire, baked fresh in PICO-8

What is it?

PicoCo Clicker is my year-long love letter to Cookie Clicker and the wider idle-game genre—hand-crafted inside the delightfully tiny, 128×128-pixel world of PICO-8. I’ve polished it until it gleams, squeezed every token I could out of the fantasy console, and wrapped it all in crunchy retro charm. It’s not “perfect,” but it’s exactly the flavorful little treat I hoped to serve.

Submariner

by Freddie Baldwin

This game is my submission for my Design Games module in my 2nd year of university.

This is an arcade-style game where the only objective is to drive your submarine as long as you can while deadly sea mines surround you on all sides. Shoot them with gathered missiles to clear a path, and pick up bubbles to restore oxygen to your crew!

A little manic farming game where you have 90 seconds to farm as much as possible. Milk the cow with the bucket for extra points!

A couch multiplayer game for those who like blowing things up.

Gone Fission! is my take on a strategy game that was a popular PD/Shareware title for the 16 bit microcomputers. To win, eliminate up to 3 other players by blowing up your tiles and claiming their squares.

How To Play

⬅️⬆️⬇️➡️ - move cursor
❎ place atom
🅾️ next player (2+ human players only).

  1. Place an atom on any empty square on the board.
  2. You can use your next turn to place an atom on another empty square or on top of your current atom.
  3. After up to 4 atoms are placed on an empty square (2 in corners, and 3 in sides) they explode, throwing the atoms onto adjacent squares and turning them your colour.
  4. Cause chain reactions by blowing up multiple squares at a time.

Following some experimentation, I've found a couple of issues with sandboxed apps and how they are given permissions to read/write files outside of the 'special locations'.

Loading cart with sandboxed workspace app can cause data loss

When you load a cart, Picotron helpfully reopens the workspaces you were using to edit that cart. If one of those workspaces is a sandboxed app, however, the app appears to be given write access but not read access.

This results in the app 'opening' the files, but just creating blank, new files and then immediately saving the blank versions over the original files in RAM. This happens without the user initiating a save or doing anything beyond loading the cart. This makes it very easy for a user to lose data if they save the cart before noticing the issue (yes, I am speaking from experience...)

This assumes all the loading/saving is done through wrangle_working_file, I haven't tested otherwise.

The behaviour can be replicated by creating a sandboxed copy of code.p64 and using it to edit a cart, then saving and reloading that cart.

My first ever finished (or as good as) cart :) I tried to make a demake of the solitaire minigame from Zachtronics' Last Call BBS as I've been playing it a lot on my phone. I've only included mouse controls, which I know isn't recommended, I might come back later to add button controls as well if I feel like . There's also no auto solver so you'll have to drag the cards to the foundations manually.

How To Play

This solitaire variant works in a similar way to klondike-solitaire. You can stack cards of alternating colors and decreasing values, card stacks can be moved onto empty columns. Clicking on the deck in the top left will deal out three cards, you can hover over the cards to see their values. When the deck is empty a free cell is unlocked that can be used to store a single card. To win stack all cards in the foundation piles on the left from ace to king! :)

Strawberry Src

A slightly-less-simple code & text editor
Author: Matt Sutton / @xietanu.bsky.social
Version: 1.1.0

Overview

Strawberry Src is intended as an equivalent app to Picotron's in-built code or text editors, with a few quality or life improvements to navigating and editting code and text easier.

Important notes

Sandboxing

For now, Strawberry Src should be unsandboxed - it's my aim that this won't be the case forever (it shouldn't need to be unsandboxed), but for now there are some serious bugs in Picotron with sandboxed carts permissions. The bugs are documented here: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=149013

You can unsandbox the cart by either loading it using load -u #strawberry_src-2, or by right-clicking on a local copy and clicking 'about strawberry_src.p64', then unchecking the box in the bottom-left corner.

On MacOS 15.4.1 every attempt to store gui tables crashes the app and results in "segmentation fault".

eg
local s = pane:active().foot
store("/ram/dev.pod", s )

s is an attached gui element

{
child = {},
width0 = 126.0,
text = "footer",
width_rel = 1.0,
sy = 200.0,
parent = "<PARENT REMOVED>",
height = 16,
border = "rrect",
update = <function 1>,
head = "<HEAD REMOVED>",
z = 0,
height0 = 16,
t0 = 0.0,
draw = <function 2>,
vjustify = "bottom",
sx = 4,
clip_to_parent = true,
width = 126.0,
bgcol = 3
}

( I remove the head and parent from the inspect output from http://github.com/kikito/inspect.lua, to reduce the output)
