A cover I made of a lovely song from a fantastic animated series called Kaiba. The animation is also based on that show.

I hope you enjoy!

I wanted to take a screenshot and draw it back to the screen like a sprite.

This is useful for screen transitions, like in Bubble Bobble where you scroll up to the next level.

The nice folks on the Pico-8 discord helped me put together this, which copies the screen to 0x8000 (the extended map location in 2.4+). Then when we want to draw it we copy it over the whole sprite sheet, draw that like a sprite, then reload the original sprite sheet.

Celeste Classic collab

Mimicking the idea of collaborative map pack mods from celeste's steam release, this cart has 3 maps from individual celeste modders, assembled in the form of a multicart.

Carts

Noir

Contains a few new mechanics and has a special secret route, if you're having trouble finding it you should

Storm

A mod containing several new mechanics. While there is no secret route, there are still a few secrets hidden in various places.

Roundelie Adventure 8

A difficult puzzle focused mod utilizing some of the more obscure mechanics of celeste for beating levels. If you need some help, you can reveal the spoilers. Remember that the enter menu has a reset level button if you get stuck.

Small issue, but ctrl-8 and extcmd("rec") should work the same. Yet when you use the latter you don't get a message saying "set video starting point" pop up. It still works though, just hard to tell if it started.

Hi there,

I have recently watched a video and just learned that if you hold ctrl while drawing notes in the SFX editor you will draw notes in the C# scale.

Question; Are there other shortcuts for the other scales?

Bonus Question; what other handy shortcuts are there for music editing in Pico-08 to imporove workflow

Thanks

Update: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=142452

Made a menu to navigate picowesome while running pico.pi by gamaral. Using splore to navigate large directories of carts was tedious. Mainly because there was no way to back out of a directory besides scrolling to the top.

One challenge I ran into was there was no way to use ls() on a nested directory or run cd from the cart (that I could find). So my initial version had the entire gamelist in the menu cart. This worked well but the file was to big to upload here and felt not in the spirit of writing this app as a pico-8 cart.

So I wrote a python script to move and rename all the carts to one directory so they could all be accessible by ls(). This caused a notable slower initial menu cart load time on a raspberry pi 3. Pico.pi takes ~18s to boot and then ~12s after pico-8 does its boot chime. With those carts nested in directories that 12s is saved.

I've been experimenting with wave function collapse a bit, got some basics working, and wanted to share the results.

Restart the cart or press X to run the map generation again.

The rules so far are hard-coded and unsophisticated. As of now, there are a number of rules defined about which tiles can border which, without regards to direction.

I'm still experimenting and planning to add more complex rules with the ability to handle lining up mixed color tiles properly. There's also an issue with top-left tile always being black, but haven't tracked that down yet.

I'm also working on a snowball game, so you can hit Z/circle to get a glimpse of that as well.

Does anybody have any info on what this command line parameter is? I tried a little bit of experimentation, but I didn't see anything different. The API functions are always global, otherwise how would pico-8 even work? What is this and how is it useful for debugging?

-global_api n           1 to leave api functions in global scope (useful for debugging)
