Howdy,
Pico8 is a cool little engine/framework!
I made a game with it in a few hours, and I like it.
I found myself editing the .p8 file directly with vim, and using the fantastic pico2png script for some of the art.
I'd love some feedback!

This is a board game by nestorgames called BLUE. It can be played with 2 or 3 players.
Each player chooses a color and tries to create lines (10 points) or dots (1 point) of their colors. There are 18 tiles of each type and once they are gone or no moves can be made the game is over.
Left/Right - Choose spot to place tile
X - Switch tile
C - Place tile
Changelog:
0.2 - Fixed crash when all tiles run out of specific type
0.1 - Initial Version

Hi there!
I'm totally new here but got an idea for a small game. A guy has to stay on a wheel which would start to spin if he's not right above it's center point. So I would need to somehow implement lever rules and I would need to rotate the wheel but I really don't know how to do this.
I already took a look at this but really don't understand the code. The first one seems a bit buggy, the second works fine but I can't find the point where the sprite is assigned to the car table.
https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=2189
so to start I would've thought of something simple like this
function draw_wheel()
spr(0,x,y,...)
------------- (get the rotated sprite and draw it)
function _update()
rotate_wheel(1) (add's one degree of rotation every frame (does not have to be 1°))
function _draw()
draw_wheel()
So in a sentence I want a sprite that get's rotated with ever frame by a certain amount.
Some tips?

I was wondering if anybody has tried pico-8 in a browser on raspberry pi and if so what was the performance like?

Someone make this happen :D
I was looking at that compohub.net for a jam I could use pico8 but surprisingly there is nothing left this year (except a game a month but an entire month is too long for me to participate).

Still being able to load carts, just not edit and save them. This would be useful in case of carts that are laggy in browser but fine when dl'd and when you want to distribute "standalone" version of your game.

It seems like it recognizes it, but the this happens after clicking .p8 file:
//edit: Also it seems that upper-case charset contains few cool c64-like semi-graphics. Can we access this in next version with shift?

According to the manual:
print str [x y [col]]
Print a string
If only str is supplied, and the cursor reaches the end of the screen,
a carriage return and vertical scroll is automatically applied.
(terminal-like behaviour)
But when I do in 0.1.2
print("aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa")
|
which won't fit on the screen, it doesn't wrap around.

i made this game in less then 2 days. its based on a game i made on the gamebuino console and i also made a version in lovejs

hope you like it

Hi,
This is my first contribution and it is not a game. It is a small terrain renderer I made to see what was possible to do with pico 8 and how far.
The terrain definition is based on height maps of 32x32. The cartridge goes with 4 different maps.
The rendering has two modes:
a real time one, sort of voxel based that allows to move camera/lighting
an actual rasterization that is computed in background when the camera/lighting stays still
controls:
arrows: in camera mode, move the orbital camera, in lighting mode, move the directional camera
when in camera mode, pressing x/v while moving allows zooming in/out

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!
