Hi all,
Now that family stuff is a bit more under control, I want to fire this up again! I've got limited availability but I'll do my best to give prompt replies. If in doubt, stick to the guidelines below.
Let's make a 17-in-1 cart of minigames! 16 games plus an over-arching "meta" game to tie them all together, give the player a "final score" etc.
I've built a space-themed meta-game already (see below). I'm looking for people to make some minigames for the player to explore. The first 16 (serious and functional) submissions that conform the the rules will be added to the cart.
Please read the rules fully before submitting your game. I'm flexible to a certain extent but please check with me first!
Games finished so far: 6 of 17

Streetwalker is an exploration-based game where the player must collect map pins hidden across the map. No idea when I'll get to work on it next but feel free to throw some idea and criticisms my way! Any and all improvements are very welcome.

Controls:
Left/Right - Move Lil' King
Z - Jump
Push ladders from the side, but don't get poked by them from beneath!
Jump on knights' heads to knock them off the wall.
Grab powerups!
The Story:
Once there was a Lil' King. He was small in stature, but also small-minded. He believed that everyone in his kingdom was making fun of him behind his back. While this was definitely true, Lil' King had no way of knowing that. But one day, he was fed up. So he banished every last nobleman and peasant from his kingdom. Finally he could live in peace. But, a neighboring kingdom caught wind of his utter aloneness. That very knight, a siege began...

This is my first PICO-8 prototype, a port of one of my few LÖVE prototypes, an Asteroids-like space shooter.
The game just starts immediately and resets itself whenever you destroy all the rocks or you hit one of the rocks; win or lose, the result is the same. There's no sound, but it's OK because it's space so it's more realistic.
Controls
z to shoot
left/right to turn
forward to thrust
At the time of the initial version I was trying to get my head around Metatables and figure out a sensible way to do useful inheritance in Lua, so you may find the code either interesting/useful or unnecessarily over-engineered, depending on your disposition.
I'm really enjoying the PICO-8 so far and feel like I could actually finish something for it thanks to its tight constraints, but this probably won't be it. Posting as a sort of hello to the BBS :)

Made a test to see how using map data to reference other map data worked out; specifically, drawing a mini map wherein the sprite numbers are used to pull rooms from the rest of the map. Works good.
things got spooky after that.
<v^> = move
O = show minimap

Hello there,
Just presenting my other game here^^. "Spikes and Jumps" is a Platformer. Your Goal: Reach the end of every level and avoid everything that hurts.
It's some kind of a Standard-0-8-15-Jump'n Run. The Player doesn't have any special abilities, he can only walk and jump. You have infinite Lives, and you're walking from the left to the right^^.

Hey! I am looking for somebody to help me on my first game, NEST. The game is practically finished, except that there is no music nor sound. I have tried many times, watching many tutorials online, but I realised that I am not musically inclined enough for the job. So, if anyone would like to give a helping hand on 3-5 sfx, I would really appreciate it.
Thank you all in advance!

Beebold! is a cute, simple game about collecting bees.
In Beebold!, you're a kobold who's collecting bees for her beehive. Unfortunately, there's a Critter wandering the field, and Critters love bees. If the Critter catches you, it'll eat all the bees you're carrying, so you have to be careful.
Critters love cookies more than they love bees, though, and as luck would have it, you're carrying a couple. If you get in trouble, you can distract the Critter so you can get away safely with your bees.
Beware, though - the more bees you have in your hive, the more desperate the Critter will get...
Music and sound effects by the lovely maple syrup!

I wanted to let folks know that I'll be streaming a beginner-friendly introduction to PICO-8 this week and beyond! You can find the schedule on my Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/bridgs_dev/events
The plan is to make a game together, touching all the features of PICO-8 in the process. If you'd like to learn how to make PICO-8 games, you can join the stream or watch the recordings, which'll be posted on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2Ea8uwt3r2NOttXY8gcOSw/videos
Hooray!

...doesn't work in HTML exports.
(oops) stated as such for v0.1.11:
"Mousewheel when devkit mouse enabled: stat(36) // not supported in web"
not sure if "not yet" or "not ever" though.

I am creating a single pico-8 game
http://pico-8.wikia.com/wiki/Btn
this link says
pico-8 supports button numbers just between 0-5
for me, that buttons are not enough.
I want add for example button number 6 which detects "S" for player 0
It's just example
If it is impossible, I want use key "M" or "N" as a special button so pico-8 PICO-8 could detect
" Oh it is N! Not Z or C"(Z,C,Ns button number are same)

Updated with some interface improvements suggested by aaaidan:
-
When hovering with the selection cursor over a city, the two other cities with which it is paired (those with which it "exchanges" traffic) are "highlighted", i.e. they are drawn with a white number on a black background (negative image). This function is disabled while holding "z" down (e.g. when planning a new line).
- When the cost of a planned line exceeds the current budget, the additional (unaffordable) segments are drawn as a dashed (not continuous) line.
For the previous update (V1.2), see: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=30979
For the "complete" manual, please refer to the original post: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=30916
