Decided to arrange some of the colours from the 32 colour palette, and this was the result. It consists of four gradients. Every colour has been named by yours truly to give some inspiration to the uses, but you can really use it for anything. If you use this for anything, please comment here! I want to see what you create with the colours.
EDIT: Due to SPLORE attempting to preserve explorer colours to keep visibility, it has sacrificed some of the colours in the label preview on native PICO-8. Not a bug, but I'm saying this just so that people don't get confused.

This is a WIP remake/port of the "Space Race" TIC-80 game by Fubuki. I have managed to make a version of the game that, with some compromises, runs at a stable 30fps and provides a simple game experience, in which the ship has to run along an endless tube, avoiding walls.
I have added collision detection and a simple scoring system to the game, as well as made the game use perspective-correct maths for everything.
Version 3: added a rendering hack that simplifies the topmost and bottommost parts of walls hidden by other walls, should make the game run at a stable 30 FPS all the time.

See repro cart - unless I am totally wrong on my software tline, pico8 tline ("hw tline") is not correctly rendering lines with arbitrary slopes.
Software version eventually converge toward correct pattern, tline does not.

For the newest #tweettweetjam I made a very basic space shooter (layout inspired by Gyruss/Tempest) in <560 characters. It even includes a bit of sound via poke-ing to the sfx memory, since the jam rules say "code only" without separate gfx/sfx assets.
Use ⬅️/➡️ to move, ❎ to fire.
(I may write up a commented / uncompressed version of the code at some point...)

This started as an experiment to learn PICO-8 music creation, and wound up being one of those projects you can't stop working on.
Happy birthday to Gawr Gura, you silly shark you.

Hi all,
This is a question I asked on discord, but I thought to get some feedback on here.
Stupid question maybe. I'm editing in vscode. I've put rulers at 32 chars to match the in built editor. How the heck do you all make your code fit inside a pico8 editor horizontally.
I don't mind going over every so often but 32 chars is very very little.
ico_zoom_in = create_icon(0x3844.92ba, 0x9244.3a01, 100, 40) |
comes to 62 chars.
even if I rename to be
zi = ci(0x3844.92ba, 0x9244.3a01, 100, 40) |
it comes to 44 chars but zi is a horrible name for zoom in icon. and ci is a horrible name for create icon.
maybe something like this.
local top = 0x3844.92ba
local btm = 0x9244.3a01
local x,y = 100, 40
zoom_in_ico=c_ico(top,btm,x,y) |
That fits but need to lift a lot of variables out and still c_ico isn't very clear name.
Do you all even consider this?
I find I just can't work with 32 chars.

in fact, you don't even have to dodge anything! You can just fly in peace without those pesky pipes ending your life.

He is in fact, a birb, not to be confused with a bird.

About
Teleport between dimensions to satisfy the Guardian's thirst for shapes! Ascend through all 10 stages to attain transcendence!
How to Play
Tips
- The longer you spend in a room, the more perilous it is likely to become.
- If you find a room particularly difficult, use the nearest teleport shape to get out quickly, even if it doesn't take you directly to the next shape you need.
- Score high by activating the more dangerous node effects.
