I was tempted to try but not sure how to implement the rotation.

This is my first submission for PICO-8!
I am trying to make a Christmas musical game but it turn out sync audio and video is a real pain...
right now, the game isn't a game, only a procedural generated map and a single tune. I will work on this title until the end of the year, introducing new old Christmas tunes and gameplay.

Just a wee little game I made to take different parts of pico-8 for a spin! Your typical space shooter in which you destroy things with love.

I started translating a lot of the CV2 soundtrack to the Pico-8. This is one of the finished ones that I think turned out nice.

Pico-Sprint is a tribute to Super Sprint and my Xmas gift to Pico8 users :-)
Up to 4 players can drive like mad to finish first on 16 tracks.
Picked up wrenches can be spent between races to enhance your vehicle.
I tried as much as I could, but there's no music and only a few (ridiculous) sfx.
So if someone is kind enough to provide an epic soundtrack I'll be forever grateful.
As usual, comments and critics are welcome!
Merry Xmas!
Version 1.01 : Tweaked cars' speed.
Version 1.02 : Fixed to work with 0.2.0 (thanks to @Felice)

This is the orthodox vertical shooter that compete for the high score.
- It is possible to enhance the ship by obtaining an item.
1.Weapons change (3 types)
2.Weapon enhancement (5 stages)
3.Speed up (5 stages)
4.Pod add (Maximum 2) - The weapons and pod has endurance is set.
- The enemy will appear in random.
- To proceed to the next stage by defeating the boss. Enemy becomes stronger.

Note: this cart has been superseded by Pico de Pon: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?pid=74540#p
v1.02 notes:
- Add more celebration sfx (trumpets) for big chains, depending on chain reaction length
- One-player scoring is scaled by the initial difficulty selection
- No garbage blocks fall in easy mode
- Fixes crashing and correctness bugs (Thanks everyone for testing!)

I've heard of this engine and it's incredibly awesome.
Been planning to buy it but it would work if i buy Pico-8 instead of Voxatron (which it comes with Pico-8)? I'm gonna learn some LUA with this thing. :P

Here's my Ludum Dare submission, "Moss Covers Everything".
This started out as "Qix in the dungeon" and grew into a thing of its own. LD being what it is I was running out of time and energy around the point I finished the gameplay mechanics so there aren't many levels or things to interact with (and no sounds at all), but I hope you enjoy what's there.
While I didn't actually end up taking much from it, Hyaku Man Ton no Bara Bara / The Million Ton Breakup, a Japan-only PSP game that's like Qix with airships, was a big inspiration. Here's an ad for it.

The music editor in Pico-8 only works in groups of 32 counts. This makes using triplets, or writing in triple time (3/4) very inefficient. If you loop a 3-count pattern, the music editor will loop it up to 32-counts, then restart. The only workaround is to not use loops when composing in multiples of three, but this takes up way to much space. For a future update, maybe the ability to edit the number of counts in the music editor? If I could have changed the counts from 32 to say, 24 or 36, it would have saved lots of work and memory. Does that make sense?
Another quick observation, though I don't think it has an easy fix: Gradual, linear tempo changes are also memory hogs. The title music from ALttP required 2/3 of the music allotment, even though it's only 20 seconds long (https://soundcloud.com/gruber99/sets/the-legend-of-zelda-alttp-pico)
Hope this is helpful!

This is my Pico-8 remake of Hyrule Castle from Zelda ALttP (I recreated the entire soundtrack in Pico-8. https://soundcloud.com/gruber99/sets/the-legend-of-zelda-alttp-pico)
I'm happy to upload any other of the cartridges, just let me know!

For LD#34, a game using the themes "Two button controls" and "Growing", as well as the rain theme I missed here. Because why not have three themes?
The engine and gameplay is done, though the later dance moves don't unlock yet. I'm thinking they'll activate at powerup points or after you grow 20 or so plants, though that's dependent on the still unfinished level designs.
Still to do post-jam: (and hopefully in the next 2-3 days)
- more puzzle designs
- music!
- win condition: grow 100 plants?
I'm a little disappointed that the special behaviors with planting on fires and shining sunlight to grow plants in rain and exorcise piranha plants didn't get into the jam demo, but they are coded and working well. You can debug the extra dance moves with Q for now, if you're interested.
I'm pretty happy with this project, especially how decent the pixel art I did in a couple hours looks. PICO-8 is really a good fit for gamejams.
