Line Of Sight Function
I`ve created a Line-Of-Sight function that should work for most projects. It checks for map-collisions(using flag0 as the collision layer). Please use it and let me know what you do with it!
I was inspired by this post: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=48889
But i wanted a simpler starting point for my own approach. A Line Of Sight check is a good starting point for you own approach but also involves some math. So to bypass that step use my function:
UPDATE 16/9/22
added a optional length-variable. Use it to define a max "range" of the that line. Keep in mind that the function already neglects far away points.
Also added a new break point for perfomance.
function can_see(x1,y1,x2,y2,length)
--x1 and y1 are the point of view,length is the max distance of the two points
local max_length=length or 1000
local xvec=0
local yvec=0
local len=0
local ret=true

Just wanted to try my hand at a classic game that fits the pico-8 remarkably well.
What's your high score? Have a go! I found it pretty hard getting more than 15.

I'm new to PICO-8, and am trying to get a basic top-down movement system. So far I have this:
left = btn(⬅️) right = btn(➡️) up = btn(⬆️) down = btn(⬇️) xspd = (num(right) - num(left)) * player.speed yspd = (num(down) - num(up)) * player.speed if fget(player.x + xspd, player.y) == 0 then xspd = 0 end if fget(player.x, player.y + yspd) == 0 then yspd = 0 end player.x = player.x + xspd player.y = player.y + yspd |
num() takes in a boolean, and outputs a number (true being 1, false being 0)
The problem I have, is that I'm trying to stop the player if they hit a wall (The wall's sprite having flag 0), and I'm not sure what to do. Does anyone know what's going on?

DESCRIPTION
A.N.N.A. SYSTEMS OPERATIONAL.
PATIENT STATUS IS CRITICAL. MASSIVE INFECTION.
BEGIN PROCEDURE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
GODSPEED.
CONTROLS
Directional Keys control menu navigation and the A.N.N.A. CANNON. Press Z to fire and interact with menus. Enter to pause and reset / edit config.
NOTES
I was very lucky to be picked for the livestream of the game jam's submissions, and I had a great time working on what I would describe as 'Blood Peggle' - I hope you enjoy it as much as I liked making it. I do think we made it a bit too hard, but given that you can start on any level you like, I've opted to leave it as is.

This is something I made for a request on reddit a while ago, and thought I'd share it here.
The timing objects are excellent for using in any game that needs precise timing actions. The timer bars are something I added later, and are not perfect.
> Hope this helps somebody! Timing can be a real headache. But this is very user friendly. There's a full section of notes in the cartridge!

This is a simple way to browse the internal pico-8 api, which I posted about on Twitter a while back.

I'm creating a small game where a player is on a grid of tiles. I want the player to move smoothly from one tile to the next, not appear instantly in the next tile. I tried to create a delay loop in the update function when the direction key was pressed, but the sprite still appears instantly 8 pixels to the left, right, etc.
The sprite is drawn, then when I hit, say, right, then the loop increments the x position, but it doesn't draw the sprite again until the loop is completed. How would I go about moving the sprite 1 pixel per frame for 8 pixels then stop?
I can sort of imagine what I need to do, but it's just a sort of jumble in my mind right now!

Add speech synthesis to your games with Speako8, a speech synthesis library for PICO-8 in under a thousand tokens! It's loosely based on a Klatt synthesizer and will remind some folks of Software Automatic Mouth (S.A.M.)
To add Speako8 to your games, copy and paste the library below:

Let me clear things up:
I don't know trigonometry.
I made this from my incredibly basic understanding of it.
Do not expect this to be great.
But I mean, it kinda gets the job done?
anyway, here it is.
PHOTOSENSITIVITY WARNING: If the character reaches the mouse, it moves left and right fast.
(Please explain to me how to do trig for this in the comments)

This is just a simple first game I created in order to get used to the engine and get back into the swing of LUA.
Any feedback is of course welcome, but I don't think I'll touch it much after this!

PICO-Patch is an 2OP instrument and music sequence creator for PICO-8, developed by MegaSparky as a spiritual successor to his independently released tool 4OP-8. It allows users to create instruments by mixing two sine wave operators in different ways and create melodies with them.
Controls:
All actions are controlled with the mouse cursor/touchscreen, except for playing notes. To trigger a note outside of play mode, press (o) - z on the keyboard - and use the d-pad/arrow keys to change the note that you play; left and right changes it to the previous and following one respectively, while up and down switch octaves.
Creating instruments:
PICO-Patch features four types of sound synthesis: phase modulation (PM), amplitude modulation (AM), ring modulation and additive. The "ADSR" parameters allow you to modify each operator's attack, decay, sustain and release respectively. The "V" meter controls the operator's global volume, and the "M" parameter defines the multiplication of its frequency.
