I'm learning, S L O W L Y.

I noticed that deli(tbl,0) doesn't seem to affect tbl[0] at all. Is this intended behavior? Was just sorta curious since I haven't had any issues with deli() otherwise

Hello I am GeK and I am wondering if anyone could share me some good games since I am new here and I dont how to find some good games so this is the only way I know of Thanks!

Forgive me if this is commonly known (I am new). I simply want to know how I could set a different folder as the directory for saving existing carts and creating new ones as opposed to the files being saved right in the \pico-8\carts file. Say I wanted to save all of my projects in the folder \pico-8\carts\projects.

Put all requests for games, mods (and genres) here:

format games as
name
:name|author|id|

format mods as:
▒cart name|creator|#id|

IMPORTANT:
a genre is needed to add it to the program

ALL future [carts,mods,genres] added will be a result of comments
I want to put in what you want to play!

(mods for already added games work as well as new games)

game is here (again):
https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=46049

once added, please delete your comment to remove clutter and make it easier for me to know what I still need to add

hello

Hayo! i've been working at teaching myself game programming with pico-8!
i'm a huge fan of this program and it's community.
here is my first attempt at cart sharing. nothing super crazy, but learning about sine waves and stuff.

thanks for looking!

I'm trying to make a tentacle using sin().
I want the base (the top circle) to be static, and the wiggle of the tentacle to get stronger until it reaches the tip (the bottom circle).
So far I have only achieved a pendulum
I'm not that good with math so I'm not sure about how to do it
here's my code

function _init()

length=20
x=64
y=40
end

function _draw()
cls()

 for i=0,length do
 circfill(x+sin(time())*i,y+i*4,length-i,14)
 end

end

A couple weeks ago I bought pico-8 to try and learn lua, but now I am stuck with the old version because it's not showing in my purchased products page. Any ideas? (I didn't use the weird 3rd party purchase save thing)

I'm working on a platformer game. I'm having an issue with enemy AI.
I want that the enemy will turn the opposite way once it reaches a cliff, much like a collision with a wall.
I want to make a collision check that will check if the floor of the tile after the enemy doesn't have any flags.
How do I do that if 0 means the first flag?

:/

Very simple sprite-hack of Celeste made for my sister Payton for Christmas. Madeline has been changed a bit to look more like her and some text has been changed to mention Christmas.

All credit due go to Thorson and Berry for the original game.
