Man I'm tired. Aren't you tired ? Good day of coding indeed. Even busier day tomorrow - but no time for coding then.
And then this evening I started messing with the RUN command, thinking I could clear all variables but start running code at a different location and got this:
::here:: print"*" flip() run(here) |
Got it all typed in ? Good cause soon as you run it WHAMMO, not only does it crash it exits the whole blooming PICO-8 system like you pressed ALT-F4 ! Wow.
Any ideas what's going on here ?

I'm tentatively scouting around for a good OLED display for Pico8 project in the future as a handheld computer (i.e. think Pocket Chip stylee, with full keyboard). I'm not a fan of LCD screens or TFT at all and prefer something that gives off an image that more closely resembles CRT with deep blacks and rich colors. Thus far, I found this, 128x128 color OLED screen.
Does anyone else have any experience with hooking up piZero to OLED? Does it require any kind of specific device driver?
Link to the screen if anyone's interested.

Controls:
[Arrow Keys] - Movement
[Z/C/N] - Shoot Paint
[P/Pause Icon] - Pause (you can choose to go back to the main menu here)
NOTE: This is the intented entry point for our game.
Here you can chose between TUTORIAL and NORMAL.
We strongly suggest playing the tutorial first (takes < 5 minutes).
The normal level can be quite rage inducing, but could propably be rushed through in ~1 minute.

dw817's BOOK READER AND WRITER
First off, converting a book to a cart (not just for Pico-8) is not a unique idea.
I originally saw this being used back for Gameboy Color many years ago by Jeff Frohwein. At the time he was using a font very similar to ZEP's at a 3x5 pixel scale, but also included a distorted 3x4 letters for lowercase. Surprisingly it had 32k of storage for the story, so back then it was even more capable of storage than Pico-8 is of today.
There have been countless Bible programs for the pc which claim not only to contain the entire Bible but also have a search routine so you can look for certain passages and entries.
Today I use a bookreader on both my cellphone and portable PSP handheld game unit especially for the works of Arthur C. Clarke.

It's going to be hard... Customers are annoying and they want really specific phones. Do you have red Nokia, blue Samsung or grey Sony with Android? If not you need to order it but there are only 3 spaces for them. If you get 3 the same colors you can be a real "red tycoon". Only currency here is your REPUTATION, so be careful because you can lose much more than money.
CONTROLS:
With Z - you can choose phone to offer and order a phone
With X - you make offer
Hopefully customer will like it!
PS Look out! iOS is available on these phones too!

A Ludum Dare 45 entry about trying to create a Ludum Dare 45 entry. Explore town, examine the scenery, and talk to those around you as you search for... inspiration.
CHANGELOG:
- 2019/10/12: Further collision detection fixes.
- 2019/10/10: Fixed the bar exit so it no longer glitches you into a wall.
- 2019/10/09: I fixed an error that caused the game to sometimes not progress past the logo screen, and added collision detection to the traffic cones so you can no longer glitch out of bounds.
