You won't believe it, but Space Battle is a shoot 'em up. Besides different enemies (and bosses), it offers various extras (explained in the opening credits), more firepower, a high score list and a cheesy background story.

Credits & Behind the Scenes

Triggered by @Krystman's SHMUP tutorial on his Lazy Dev YouTube channel, I thought it would be a good idea to program a game together with my ten-year-old son and teach him a little programming logic along the way. He was immediately hooked, but was more interested in the sprite editor and kept coming up with enemies, bullets and new ideas for a few extras. In any case, we both had a lot of fun.

I'm working on a Minecraft (2d) clone. I have world generation pretty much complete, but I need to have a way to store said generation. I know that using printh() lets you write to files, but I want to read the contents from an external file like new_world.dat or something similar.

Satan has taken over Santa's house! Luckily, Rudolph (that's you) has escaped from the cage he found himself in. Rescue Santa! Rescue reindeer! Stop Satan! Collect Christmas things! Save Christmas!

I thought I'd try my hand at the proud, proud tradition of making a lazy asset swap Christmas game. Turns out this was vastly more work than I anticipated but also a lot more fun. Trying to make sense of my own code from two years ago was not fun though.

This started out life as Banana Chase, one of my first games. All the sprites needed Christmasing up, I heavily remixed the map and also jammed in some Christmas jingles. What was not fun was trying to make sense of the absolute nonsense that passed as the level sequence code, this is not a place of honour etc.

spooky scene (with tile decoration generation)

before i could create the full scene, i made a fake screenshot in a pixel art editor
so i could look at the picture and imagine which commands i would need to add the details

behind the scenes

warning: long text

i added details by selecting tiles that should have added details, storing the tile numbers as variables on a code page (the 2nd one), then programming on the next (3rd) codepage how the tiles should be decorated.
the last (4th) code page has only the main loop, and the first one has no code because it's for a bit of extra documentation.

the decogen…draw() (decoration generation draw) function checks every tile for if it's one of the special tiles, and then decorates if it is.
each tile has distinct decorations, so they have very different approaches to being decorated:

• pillars are generated from the base (the only pillar sprite in the spritesheet).
  they check for a ledge above to know how long the pillar should be.
  when they hit it, the rest of the pillar is drawn from top to bottom, with three parts
  • the base sprite but mirrored, is the capital (the top)
  • a dark line shades the capital
  • a rectangle connects the base and the capital
• every brick wall tile on the map checks if it is below a ledge tile.
  if it is, it draws a shaded row of bricks below the ledge
  using a one-off character that i made in my one-off character creator
• the lamp's decoration has two parts
  • the pole is almost like a pillar, but in reverse:
    the lamp checks the tiles below the bulb (the only lamp sprite) until it hits the floor,
    then it draws the pole. it has four parts
    • mirrored base sprite as capital
    • line that shades the capital
    • rectangle that connects the pillar
    • base sprite used as-is for the base
  • the emission lines are just six lines that get drawn next to the bulb — no checks needed
• the door has only its bottom tile in the spritesheet.
  the part above gets generated — no checks needed.
  it has 4 parts
  • the top third of the door is another one-off character
  • the row of bricks above is another one-off character, but only the bright pixels
  • the single dark pixel of the brick row is drawn with pset()
  • i added a black outline to the left and right of the door
    using 2 lines
• the clock is also getting decorated with no checks. the decoration has 3 parts
  • a black filled circle for the clock face
  • a bright hollow circle for the outline
  • because the filled circle overdrawed the clock hands,
    the clock hands sprite gets replaced
• every cloud tile checks if it has an empty background tile to its left or right.
  if it has, it draws a line to complete the outline

So obviously it’s difficult to find cheap Raspberry Pi’s anymore but Libre Computer’s Le Potato and La Frite seem to be really similar. I don’t have a ton of experience with Raspberry Pi or anything but I can follow guides just fine, would I be able to follow the Raspberry Pi handheld guides found on these forums and just replace the Pi with a Libre Computer?

Thanks

Hi all! I have a problem. I made a game and I've lost the source code (my laptop was stolen and my code wasn't backed up 'cause I'm a dummy).

Regrettably I didn't post it to BBS either :/

I'd like to be able to recover the .p8 file from the exported html and js files. Is there any way to do this?

Many thanks <3

I don't know how to run a line of code when one sprite collides with one another, could someone please help me out with this. (I am VERY new to pico-8 so keep it simple) Thanks :)

This cart is designed for offline use and will let you select any area from your spritesheet and draw it in any other code or even a different cart - without using the spritesheet.

Use the arrow keys to navigate.
Try selecting any of the color rectangles to test the system.
Hold down the CTRL key to jump in a grid of 8x8.
Hold down the SHIFT key to start selecting an area. The area is inclusive so the cursor must touch the area borders you want to select.

Hold down BOTH CTRL and SHIFT to select in fields of 8x8 where the box is 8*size-1

This is my second Pico-8 game!

Instructions

This a 1 or 2 player game.

When a player makes a move the block underneath reduces one on its counter, and when it reaches 0 the block crumbles appart. The idea is to make the other player (human or computer) fall.

Controls

In 1 player mode, you can move with either the SEDF letters or with the arrow keys, in 2 player mode one player uses the SEDF letters and the other one uses the arrow keys.

1 player mode has three different levels of difficulty, I used a minimax algorithm to implement the AI.

Other games

I also did a game called POF, a speedrunning boss shooting game: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=46519

Was looking through UFO Swamp Odyssey and saw that they had multiple sprites or sprite pieces per sprite tile. Like how they have 2 pairs of eyes in one sprite tile. And I'm completely clueless as to how they accessed the bottom half of the sprite. I know in the arguments for SPR() you can choose to only use a fraction of a sprite, but it always starts at the top left corner. So how did they only use the bottom half? I looked at the code for a good couple minutes but couldn't find anything and I don't know what this technique is called so I don't know what to search for.

TEZARTMTL2022

This token is a special gift for those who attended #TEZARTMTL in 2022. Huge thanks to the organizers for making this event possible, and to everyone who attended. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

This piece is interactive and a bit playful, so please play with it! To experience the full interactive elements, it is best viewed on a PC or laptop using a USB gamepad or keyboard. If you are using a mobile device, touch control buttons will be visible. If they are cut off, please open the objkt directly via the IPFS link for a better view.

The controls are as follows:

-> up,down,left,right arrows: pan the texture along the torus, you'll see it makes sense

So I recently had an idea for a pet game on PICO-8 akin to Tamagotchi, or nintendogs. where you take care of pets, and you would use a cursor and buttons. My ideas was to have 2 main areas, one area for just watching and feeding your pets, another for mini games and for training your pet. My idea was once you feed a certain pet enough it would lay an egg and give you more pets My idea for the mini games would be something simple like button mashing or something easy to do. I'll also have to figure out how to make the pets move around on their own (I already have the pet sprites). I'm still pretty new to PICO-8, and have only made short top-down adventure games, so sorry for my lack of knowledge. Comment how you would go about this idea. Thanks!

P.S if I use your code or ideas I'll give you full credit where it's due.
