My 1st game's next version.
I prepared 50 puzzles that you can solve more interstingly.
UX has also been improved to make it easier to play.
Enjoy please~

On a particular Linux system I was recently using wget was not installed by default. Splores in game message was "could not connect to bbs" which led me down a rabbit hole of network checks until I noticed the wget missing error in the terminal. I was running via a pico8.desktop entry without the terminal originally.

Could curl be used as a fallback? Running "curl -L -O" can usually be used as a fallback in many cases. Better yet just use libcurl in the compiled binary and then you don't need wget or any external tools.

Thanks!

Hey! Remember when I suggested putting next in the globals, since we could get to it anyway by doing next=pairs{}? You did! And that's been great!

Would it be okay to get inext the same way? It seems to be present, since I can get it by (similarly) doing inext=ipairs{}, and it seems to work the same way, just limited to index,value instead of key,value.

It's just not officially exposed.

I'm asking because there's a token saved when you switch from the first to the second implementation here:

for k,v in pairs(t) do ... end
for i,v in ipairs(t) do ... end

-- these are a little less clear to the reader but they work the same and save a token
for k,v in next,t do ... end
for i,v in inext,t do ... end

Technically it also shaves a couple of cycles off of the loop setup by inlining the return tuple from pairs()/ipairs(), but it's really the token savings that would be handy in some cases.

This is my first game on Pico-8. I find that Pico-8 can be a useful training before starting the real retro gamedev.

Red vs Blue Tic-Tac-Toe. A simple crosses-noughts game between two players: Red and Blue. In this first version you always play as Red and you always start first.

Update 2022-04-10:
AI no longer plays randomly

After modifying the code I got rid of the error message however now the problem is that its not printing

Code:
h=7
t=64
if h < 23 then
print("to much food",t,t,0)
end

Info:
h=7 it can be upped by 1 when x is pressed and lowered when z is pressed
if h reaches 23 or 7 it will say at that sprite

v1.1.2 update: added loop jump hotkeys (v1.1.1) and fixed a crash bug.

RP-8 is a synthesizer and groovebox inspired by Propellerhead Software's classic soft synth, ReBirth RB-338. It has everything you need to make entire tracks: two paraphonic synthesizers, a drum machine, a pile of effects to process your sound, and an integrated song mode sequencer to pull everything together. The audio is lo-fi, 8 bits at 5.5kHz, giving the output a distinctively crunchy sound.

If you're nostalgic for the early era of soft synths, a fan of minimalist computing, an acid squelch connoisseur, or just someone who likes to discover new sounds: I made RP-8 for you.

You can find this cart, including native builds, at https://luchak.itch.io/rp8, or try it out below. Note that this cart works much better natively than on the web - see the Web section under Compatibility Notes below for more info.

Ever since 0.2.4c came to the BBS, copy/paste seems to cause a crash/hang:

  • stat(4) when there is something in the clipboard hangs
  • printh(<..>, "@clip") hangs

Say hi to the newest member of the PICO-8 family! A free, web-based, account-less version of the console making it a more accessible way to learn how to program, push pixels and write chip tunes. It comes with a fully functional set of cartridge editing tools, and can load and save .p8 and .p8.png files to and from your local drive (as well as storing them to a temporary filesystem in the browser's cache).


Just run it from any browser that has a keyboard + mouse attached:

If you are new to PICO-8 you can find a manual and tutorials on the main site, or click on the blue bunny for some tips. Here's a 2-minute GIF showing the creaton of a simple PICO-8 cartridge from scatch:

I made it as a submission for Ludem Dare. It's a 48 hour game jam, but I only had a few hours to put in to that submission. This is the more refined version where I had time to add sound, particles, new sprites, a map, and a little easter egg.

I had a bunch of fun making it and I've had a bunch of fun playing it. The gravity is surprisingly entertaining to mess around with.
