Hi there!
I'm just bought pico-8 and I was wondering if there was any way to change the input keys around? I tried researching if I could change things around with the SDL controller configs, but nothing I tried seemed to work...
I'm a huge dork and just don't want to move my hands after i've typed some code....
Also, my right hand is not used to moving around, so playing games like Celeste is really difficult for me...
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
BLD is a BoulderDash like.
The player:
- can move (arrow keys)
- goes not too fast
- can push the rocks
- can collect gems (50 points)
The rocks and gems fall (bottom, left or right). Take care, they can kill (3 lives).
=> You can destroy the butterfly !!!

This goes to an end... Now, I will start a new projet... "chop" !
Kind regards,

Pixelmind V1.0
My little take on the classic Mastermind....
Controls:
left/right to navigate left and right
up/down to shuffle through faces
z/x to submit guess (and to continue when round ends).
For each guess submitted little lights show you info about the guess:
GREEN: is a correct guess and correctly placed.
YELLOW: is part of the lineup, but is misplaced.
RED: is not part of the lineup
You've got 7 tries for each game and it gets a bit more difficult for each level, as you are awarded stars - No really, real 80s superstars! - for each level completed. This makes it a little more difficult.
Hope you enjoy it, and let me know if you think 7 tries is too much or too little!

Hi, this is my first pico-8 "game".
I never coded in lua, as a java programmer, it's hard :(
Notes:
-The colision check is so buggy (maybe my fault, i think).
-I speak spanish, so... "sorry for mah bad english".
-Also, the game is a port of my javascript version of the game
-I forgot to update the score when you destroy an enemy, duh.
I'll appreciate your feedback c:

Sometime ago, Josh Millard made the PICO Junior.
A few days ago, sta64 found out about PICO-8's Screen Resolutions.
I had the idea to combine the ideas, so I present the PICO Junior (Jr. for short) Challenge.
Requirements:
- 4 colors in total (transparency doesn't count)
- Must be 64x64
- One Player
Everything else? Fair Game.
To make sure that the games are easy to find, I've got 2 ideas:
- Put them all in this post.
- Tag them with "picojr".
I've got an example cartridge, lemme know which method would be easier.

Hi, I was trying to cache an entire frame in ram to be able to blit it later on on screen.
However the user defined memory is not big enough to hold an entire frame (lacks 1kB)
Fair enough, as I was not using sfx at all, i tried to overlap on that memory but for some reasons some bytes in that area seem to be masked and cannot take value greater than 0x7F
So my question is: Is there a place in RAM where i can safely read/write the extra 1024 bytes i need to cache an entire screen frame ?

Hi everyone,
I am a bit new to Pico-8, so I'm not sure if this is a known thing or not, or if it is even an issue.
Bitwise operations seem to act funny, specifically XOR.
For example this is how XORing something with 1 should work
0000
xor 0001
= 0001
0001
xor 0001
= 0000
|
I've tried implementing this in code by doing:
switch=0x00 if btnp(4) then bxor(switch,0x01) cls() print(switch) end |
But switch just stays at 0. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if this is just the way it's intended to operate.
Thanks for your time!

I've installed 0.1.2. In the SFX editor, when I hit SPACE i don't hear the sound i'm working on but the first bar is selected. In the pattern editor, SPACE selects the first row of the first pattern. When a game is running (for example te demo api.p8) I can hear neither music or sound effects.
If I run 0.1.1 everything works fine.
I'm on MacOSX El Capitan.
