found a bug in 0.2.1b (also current bbs version) while using tline() to shear rectangles
see the cart
observe that there's only 2 configurations that get chopped incorrectly (one where the startpoint is below the screen and one where the endpoint is above the screen) (although others also have ugly artifacts)

I was looking into methods for extending the spritesheet memory of a cartridge, but the only result I could find on google (after an admittedly short search) was a post that was slightly inefficient when it loaded the spritesheet into memory, making it only suitable for use in fullscreen graphics like a title screen. This was noted in the post, but I thought that I could make some improvements.
Limitations
This code is very small when inserted into the cart, other than the actual spritesheet data. The current data is stored in a completely uncompressed binary string, which in the worst case can balloon up to 16-20k characters.
(NOTE: This is only when storing a completely black spritesheet, which should ideally be never. If your spritesheet has large portions of completely black (color 0) space, try replacing it with some other color you're not using, or using palette swapping.) The average spritesheet should be able to be stored in 8-10k characters.

Long ago, while working on another game that I never finished, I stopped and made a quick & dirty version of Memory. I only just realized, more than a year later, that I stuck it in Work in Progress unintentionally!
Use the arrow keys to navigate the grid, ❎ to flip a tile, 🅾 to toggle show/hide the time clock (useful if you want to see how close you are to a personal best). When you match two tiles, they'll stay flipped. When you match all 16, the game is over! Try to see how fast you can match all 16 tiles. My personal best is 23 seconds, but I'm sure it can be done faster. I blame my arthritis for my performance :). If you beat 23 seconds, let me know in the comments!

EUROPICO 88
The unofficial tie-in video game for the 1988 European Championship in West Germany!
EUROPICO 88 is a top-down football game heavily inspired by 90s semi-arcade-style football games like Sensible Soccer and International Superstar Soccer (recognise that menu music...?). Simulation aspects like substitutions, through-balls, slide tackles, teams with different stats and referees were eschewed in favour of speed, simplicity and an AI that won't let you have it easy but is satisfying to outfox. Players can choose any of the 8 teams participating in the EURO 88 finals in West Germany, and can pit themselves against their friends, the computer, or just sack it off and watch the computer play itself!

Due to some rendering issues, Chrome is smoothing out Pico-8 displays. So, if you are using the BBS, use Firefox for that.

There's been quite a bit of chat on the discord about bitplanes. So:
Unmangled source:

so this is a game made by a tutorial (here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1wvvbVQ5zo it's not made by me ), remember this is an alpha, so i'll change the sprites (make original ones) and maybe make some sounds.
press X to open the inventory
thx for testing and have fun!

Someone was asking about how to encode multiple text images as smaller multicolour images on the discord. Well:

Hello! I've recently discovered fantasy consoles and this seems to be the biggest one in terms of community. What I'm curious on is why someone new to fantasy consoles should use this one over others? Sorry if this question has been asked numerous times but I'd like to know the reasons to use this over others before I drop $15 lol

You're on a mission to collect asteroids.
Invite invasive species to the sector to inflate the value of the asteroids you collect.
There are also upgrades you can get for your ship, such as a booster system and a barrier.
Watch out for the space squid's deadly ring, the red dwarf's mass ejections, and more!
Collect enough money to enter HARD MODE, which earns you double the money, but you're all alone in a much more aggressive sector.
CONTROLS:
Left/Right/Up/Down : Move ship
(O) : Start Game / Buy upgrade / Boost (if unlocked)
(X) : Open shop menu
Version 2 is out! Enjoy all of the enhancements and new content :D
Note: the game only saves which mode you have reached and your high score record

Dialog Box Library
For Full Moon Sweet, we created a dialog box inspired by Oli414's Dialog Text Box Lib that could be used for both the intro story and the battles. All of the code for our dialog widget was pretty self-contained, so I thought I could package it up for others to use in their own games.
How to play the demo
Z = Continue Text
X = Skip to the end of the line
How to use in your game
- Copy the dialog object from this cart and paste into your own game.
- In your game's _update function, call dialog:update() and in the _draw function, call dialog:draw().

What if i, instead of doing games, i make mechanics for games?
i feel like this is a good idea.

I present to you my first public cartridge, a simple countdown timer.
I made this to show on my stream while working on the Ludum Dare game jam.
It is currently set to countdown to the Jam deadline in BST time.
To use it for your different time-based or competition deadlines, simply edit the day and hour variables at the top of the code.
Does not work over a month boundary - as the next LD is all in October I didn't spend any time to support it.
The day value will always mean that day in the current month.
