Here's my entry for #B&W Jam.

I kind of ran out of time so it's a bit janky but perfectly playable.

There are mazes. 21 of them. There's a friendly narator to help you through it.

Simple. To start off with.

Enjoy ;)

SOLAR BLASTER: CHALLENGE STAGE

The Earth is under attack from the invading alien war machine! Take control of the Solar Blaster fighter ship and strike back!

Solar Blaster: Challenge Stage is an action packed space shooter where you’ve got 2 minutes to get the high score. Destroy as many enemy waves as you can within the time limit, collect power ups like rapid fire and spread shot and cause massive destruction with your 3 super bombs.

This game is based on the 2 minute ‘caravan’ shooter format from classic PC Engine games. I wanted to create a simple, fun shooter that was easy to pick up and play and that players would want to keep coming coming back to again and again.

Hangman game I made for a friend. Music and sfx needs improvement, as well as more phrases. I plan on adding categories at some point too, but for now I think this version is good enough to upload :)

Heavily inspired by this

A Master System/Game Gear sound chip emulator in Pico8 using the PCM channel. Features 4 songs from SOR1&2 for the Game Gear (use left/right to select)

How it works:
VGM files are logs of register writes. I wrote a program to decode them, save what the reg settings were every 60th of a second, and RLE compress them into strings. The sound chip is basic enough to write a simple emulator for Pico8.

Limitations:

• Not really an audio guy, may still be glitches
• Looping only goes back to the start of the tune, rather than part-way-through as in some songs. Probably would need to decompress the songs to pico8 memory to do that, instead of my "clever" on-the-fly RLE decoding

If I'm in tab 0 and press ctrl-f to search for, say "world" because I want to change it to "universe", ctrl-g will help me find all the other instances of "world" in tab 0.

Then I switch to tab 1 and want to do the same thing.

I hit ctrl-g... nothing. I have to press ctrl-f and type my search again.

It would be great if ctrl-g remembered my search term even when I switch tabs :)

I'm currently setting up a pi-based arcade cabinet with pico8, running through emulationstartion on retropie. I've got pico8 working sucessfully, with the exception that i cannot quit pico8 without a keyboard connected.

Looking at this thread here: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=28629, it seems that from version 0.1.11 the "menu" button should bring up a menu from the splore home, which you can then quit pico8 from. I assume this menu is the one brought up when the esc key is pressed. This doesn't work for me, the menu button lets you exit a game to return to splore, but does not let you shutdown splore itself. In the main splore menu the menu button functions as a select button. The only way to quit pico8 is with the esc key, not feasible for me as I don't wish to have a keyboard attached to the machine.

I am currently using PICO-8 v0.2.2c on both my computer and the pi, and both exhibit this same behaviour.

Has this feature been removed? Is the function of the menu key configured somewhere?
