I was mucking around in the sfx editor and came up with something that sounded really close to a helicopter effect. I thought, "I don't do helicopter games, but this might be useful to someone else. I should share it."
Then I realized anything I post will be visible for, like, two days before disappearing into obscurity. Not useful for others who might be able to use the sfx in the future.
Have you ever considered adding a searchable repository of resources? Maybe sprites, sfx, music. Whatever people want to share (license-free) for others to use or prototype with. If things are taggable and maybe previewable, it would potentially be a great resource for people with limited time budgets, or mediocre skills in some areas.
It's probably way too much work, but hey, I thought I'd throw it at the wall and see if it sticks. At least the exporting is easy now that we can copy/paste stuff as ascii.

This is a demo of an earlier (messy and bloated) build of simple puzzle game I've been working on in my spare time. Your goal is to get the color blocks on the appropriately colored switch. Colors can be mix together to create other colors. Also, activated switches can be used to mixing as well. This is just a demo, so it's really short (5 levels).

I'm making a game using the dev kit mouse and want a line to go from the character to the mouse location
But I can't figure out what place that the line needs to end in order for the line to end before it gets to the player
http://imgur.com/a/vscVn
on the top is what I have, and on the bottom is what I want
How do I find/get the variable to stop the line short of the player?
Sorry for all the questions I've been asking recently

2019 edit: Since the Patreon page is no longer up, there was no way to get the readable source code - so I decided to update the cart here to the fully readable, commented version.
This Sunday, I finally did the Patreon $100 stream - and the topic was procedurally-generated pixelart planets. The results were very fun, so I decided to flesh it out a bit more and make a small demo out of it.
The controls are pretty simple, since this is a highly advanced spacecraft simulation: press X to warp to the next planet.
The full source code, as usual, is available on my [b]Patreon

Hi all,
Pico Diams is my first PICO-8 game.
It's just a remake of (what I could remember of) Boulder Dash, a game I used to play in the '90s.
This version has 20 levels. It's a WIP, it has no sound or music yet.
All comments are welcome ;)

My submission for #LOWREZJAM 2017. An action puzzle game where you try to match colors on each side of the board.
Up, Down, Left, Right: Move character
O: Match
X: Move
Hit O to remove matching tiles above, below, and to each side of the player. 1 point each for a pair, 2 each for a triple, and 3 each for a quad. Move next to a tile and hold X to move a tile with the player.

I'm porting this neural networks lib to pico8. But how I can see, int limit doesn't allow me to do that properly. The same code doesn't work on pico8:
but works with lua 5.2:
Is there a way to fix this?
Here is the full source code.

Hey,
Has anyone tried pico8 (or any retro gaming stuff) via a pico projector? I was thinking about those low res (720p-) you can get for cheap ; maybe led powered? I have no idea, never owned a projector.

I'm making a swimming game and need help making a jump/move
The current code isn't quite giving me the right feel because I don't know how to use calculus here
(i presume that's what I need to do)
can I get a fix for my issue, please?
cls(12) x=60 y=60 function _update() y=y+.7 if btnp(2) then y=y-10 end --slapsh up if btnp(0) then x=x-3 end --splah back if btnp(1) then x=x+3 end --splash forward end function _draw() cls(12) circfill(x,y,4,7) end |

It isn't really much of anything yet, to be quite honest, I am just learning the basics of programming, and as such am trying to keep it simple.
I have a few ideas for how I would like to expand it, but, before it becomes too messy, I am looking for feedback on how I could make this code more space efficient, more expandable, etc to maximize the amount I am able to add to it. For example, the bottom lower corner is being reserved for a graphical map, story elements, etc. This is just a basic start, from someone beginning in programming, looking for some feedback, good or bad.
An example of a minor annoyance, which I have yet to solve, is that I need to make the top item of each menu an unclickable word, else the keypress that leads to a menu immediately clicks the first item, even using btnp(4)
Also, the beginning stats are by no means balanced, at this point this is pretty much just a silly 'proof of concept.'

Really simple question, when (if at all) will there be ports of Pico-8 for Android and iOS?
I think that would be a perfect way to emphasize the portability and make-a-game-anywhere aspect that I love about Pico-8.
I have read in the FAQ that says "Ports for iOS and android and possibly other platforms are planned after 1.0", which I dont know if its still accurate. Any ideas on if this will still be a thing?
Id even buy it another time ;P
EDIT: if it does get ported somehow, please add Hardware-keyboard support, not just for typing but also for actually playing :P
