Right now, tostr(n) converts to decimal, and tostr(n,anything_except_nil_or_false) converts to hex.
Could it use the optional second arg as a base if it's a number? e.g.
>?tostr(255) 255 >?tostr(255,false) 255 >?tostr(255,true) 0x00ff.0000 >?tostr(255,16) 0x00ff.0000 >?tostr(255,10) 255 >?tostr(255,2) 0b0000000011111111.0000000000000000 |
For the sake of simplicity, you could limit it to the bases the parser can read. I think that's just decimal, hex, and binary.

You're a bomb about to explode. Can you get to water before exploding?
This is the first game I made without a tutorial. Its pretty bad but I think it turned out fine.

Hi people, thanks for checking out my game.
Instructions:
This is a high score game; you need to get as many gold coins as possible.
Go to the red flag to progress to the next level.
Notes:
This is my second published game on pico-8.
I made this throughout the night and now I need sleep.

UPDATE: The dungeon generation logic has been revamped. Rooms are not always rectangular, and can often have a bit more cover (or hiding places for monsters). Also added a couple of new enemy types. Gold has been removed (I needed the extra tokens), but it didn't really do anything anyway.
Grab your magic staff and venture deep into the demon realm to defeat Bahmott and his evil servants!
Trial of the Sorcerer is a procedurally generated 3D first person shooter inspired by Wolfenstein 3D and Catacomb Abyss.
Shoot monsters, collect loot, find keys to unlock doors, and try to find the exit to the next level.
And don't forget to pickup the power crystals to level-up your magic staff along the way.

Tinymal Crossing
A very early start to what I guess could be called a "demake" of the first Animal Crossing on the N64/GameCube.
This started life last year as a modification of Oli414's "Pico Crossing", so while there have been a fair amount of changes to it, you can still see the blood of the original in places. Work on making it its own thing has been fairly on and off, so if someone sees the potential to build off of/improve it, then do what you want with it.
What the game has
- A working real-time day-night cycle, similar to that of the GBC Pokémon games. To change the appearance to night, the colors are replaced with darker shades, usually from the hidden palette.

Embarrassing question but please be gentle. I'm very new to all this.
I have this code: (Lower down there). It's a bit mock up really for this question.
Lower down still in my code I'm working on a collision detection bit that needs, among other things, the value of x.
As you can see, it's all referencing 'self' and I have NO IDEA how to get the x value from this line:
spr(17,self.x,self.y,1,1,false)
Would someone please help a noob out.
Many thanks
Peej
function add_new_enemy()
add(enemy,{
x=80,
y=96,
w=8,
h=8,
dx=rnd(2)-1,
dy=rnd(2)-1,
life=20,
draw=function(self)
spr(17,self.x,self.y,1,1,false)
end,
update=function(self)
self.x+=self.dx
self.y+=self.dy
self.life-=1
if self.life<0 then
del(enemy,self)
end
end

I know we haven't seen a Celeste 2 mod in a while, but I present to you, Celeste 2 Flip!
(Inspired by VVVVVV by Terry Cavanagh and Gravity Guy)
In this mod for Celeste Classic 2, Lani has discovered the gravity suit, use it to flip your gravity (X/V) and traverse the mountain. Enjoy!
Changes:
- Replaced Lani's grappling hook with the ability to flip gravity!
- Controls: Left and right arrows to move, Z/C to jump, and X/V to flip Lani's gravity!
- Removed grapple points and carrying functionality.
- Going too far off of the top of the screen also kills you.
HARD MODE: Well, shortly after creating the mod, I received some suggestions from the EXOK Discord for a new version which I have implemented into a new form of the mod,

Hey guys! This is my first Pico8 submission. I'm hoping it will motivate me to work more on it. I'm trying to port the classic shmup Gradius to Pico8. I'll likely run out of room, but if I can get the first level in playable, I'll be happy.
I'm concentrating on accuracy. Currently there is no real gameplay. I worked on the ship animation, parallax scrolling, and spent far too much time on the music. Next thing to do is enemies so we can actually shoot some things.
Hope you enjoy this prototype and lemme know any feedback!

LCD Custom font
Recreation of the font used by some LCD screens.
Please credit Yolwoocle if you use it, feel free to use it anywhere, like your Idle MMORPG Metroidvania with LCD screen graphics!
(Jokes aside, I would be very curious to see what a game using this font as graphics would look like -- there's an LCD screen pixel art included in the cart.)
Some characters might not correspond to their usual pico-8 counterparts. This is because the character codes are copied directly from the lcd character sheet.
Copy these lines to use the font in your cart:

V1.1 I forgot to comment the code. I felt like that would be a useful thing to do so that people understand how this works. Also, I changed the massive if chain in the tick() function to an elseif chain which should slightly improve performance, though optimization has never been my strong suit, so if anyone wants to try to fix my spaghetti code, be my guest.
This is my first thing that I made outside of simple experimentation with the engine! I hope you all like it! Most things have interactions with most other things, so just play around and see what you can do!

This is a small game about a small dragon kid that jumps around collecting gold and video game treasures.
This was my first PICO-8 project (and "finished", published game).
How to play:
You control a small dragon kid. You can jump on slimes, and bounce off slime balloons. You can jump up — or off — walls.
If a slime knocks you out, or if you land on spikes, you will lose 5 gold. Gold is worth 1, and video game treasures/large gold bricks are worth 10. Try to collect as much gold and treasure as you can!
Special thanks:

I found that, when entering the editors, the map resets itself and, furthermore, resets the map for the game being currently played as well.
An example of this bug (using Super Mario Remix):
@zep can you please fix this or make this a setting or something? (I would prefer it being a setting available using config)

Hi there.
I wonder if this is a bug.
I'm messing around with pico 8 trying to make a shmup and after woking for a while in the shooting mechanics of enemies and player I decided to start with the level design.
The thing is I drew some enemies on the map just to try things out and now my spritesheet is showing some strange artifacts as if it had become corrupted.
Is this normal?
Thanks, have a good day.

The Pacifist is a shooter where you don't shoot, you move. It builds upon Geometry Wars' Pacifism Mode.
How to play
The goal is to pass through gates when there are enemies in the circle around it. Each enemy killed that way raises the multiplier and gives points.
There are three lives, represented by the condition of the ship. The darker the ship, the less lives you have left.
There are two base powers:
- Time Freeze: Use the Z/0 button to freeze time for 1.5 seconds. It uses a portion of the power bar.
- Shield: Use the X button to use a shield, repelling enemies that are close to you.
Powerups pop up now and then to help you.
Known bugs
- When dying after the third life, enemies spawn immediately but they shouldn't.
Version History
Version 0.8.4
- Bugfix
Version 0.8.3
- Fixed a bug that made it possible to have virtually infinite shield
- Changed the way power-ups are picked. You have a choice of two power ups and have 10 seconds to decide which one to pick. At the beginning, you don't get two power-ups like you used to, but the time between power-up spawns has been reduced.
Version 0.8.2
- Replaced the Dimensional Shift with a time freeze power on the Z button.
- Added a power-up to level up the time freeze (making it use less energy)
Version 0.8.1
- New enemy type spawns later
Version 0.8
- Changed the color palette so enemies would be even more clear
- Added a new type of enemy
- Adjusted the difficulty
Version 0.7.4
- small bugfix relating to Performance Mode
Version 0.7.3
- Fixed some powerups that were not spawning.
- Fixed the shield radius.
- Added a power-up to level up the shield, decreasing its energy usage and increasing its range slightly.
Version 0.7.2
- Added a shield on the x button that shares its power bar with the Dimensional Shift. I think it's fun to use, but renders the Shift almost moot. I'll have to rebalance those two powers in a future version.
- Made the enemies go in slighty off directions the farther they are from the player. It's subtle but it prevents enemies from all doing the exact same thing.
Version 0.7.1
- Hotfix
Version 0.7
- Added audio and visual feedback when gates are spawning.
- Pink dot's countdown now affects the background grid.
- Added a true difficulty curve (instead of hadcoded spawns) For now it's not a curve, it's linear, but I'll try to adjust it to make it fair to new players and fun for veterans.
- Fixed the diagonal player angles which made it possible for enemies to spawn in the trajectory of the player.
- Small ajustments to powerups.
Version 0.6.2.2
- Fixed a memory leak caused by some particles not removing themselves.
- The physics-based grid now updates at 30fps instead of 60. It makes it run almost flawlessly on RG351 devices.
Version 0.6.2.1
- Added a menu option to disable the physics-based background grid for slower devices.
Version 0.6.2
- Re-arranged enemy physics to make them more bouncy. As a result, it can be a bit easier, but I think it's for the better.
- Added a physics-based background grid to make things more dynamic. The physics engine was made by aatish (https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?pid=84525)
- Fixed the GateUp powerup. Now, you are limited to 3 stacks of this powerup.
Version 0.6.1
- Made the pink and orange enemies more aggressive
- The Slow Pink powerup was removed
- Added visual and audio feedback when catching a powerup
Version 0.6
- Expanded the play field to 192x192 instead of 128x128. It drastically changes the balance of the game so I'm still not sure if that's what I want.
- To counter-balance the first point, I changed the spawn rate of enemies. The pink one is less lethal so I'll try to balance it in the future.
- Added 5 types of powerups that spawn randomly every 45 seconds
- Extended the song
- Cleaned up the UI
- Removed the fake background scroll because it became very weird with the real scrolling field.
Version 0.5.2
- Fixed the score limit. Now the theoretical limit is 999,999,999 points, although the display will probably be broken at that point.
- Fixed a very minor sound problem when killing enemies
- Small refactoring
Version 0.5.1
- Nothing added, simply a refactoring because the code was getting messy and hard to work with.
Version 0.5
- Initial version here. To learn to play, look for the "How to play" section below.
What's next?
- Balance out the powers
- Add more power-ups
- Add debuffs (maybe)
- Adjust difficulty
- Adjust, adjust and adjust to optimize the fun and make it rewarding
Enjoy!
