The sequel to MoonShine's RGB puzzle game, with expanded graphics, feel and gameplay!
Gameplay
This game plays just like its prequel and expands on the original code, but now pieces fall smoothly and there's a brand new game feature: shape-coded blocks. Instead of just simple pieces with three stripes of color, there are three varieties of each one with different shapes, and blocks of a certain shape can only be merged with those that have the same one. By pressing up or down on the title screen, you can even change the number of shapes generated by the game.

The Galaxy is suffering under brutal reign of a mad tyrant, and all cower in fear of his doomsday weapon capable of vaporizing entire planets. But a brave rebel leader has arisen, to free the people or die trying.
To win the game, strike at the tyrant's capital - the more ships you have, the better your odds of succeeding. 6 ships are a guaranteed victory, but even with 5 or 4 you have a decent chance.
To get more ships, visit planets - their chance of giving you a new battleship are displayed as percentage. Planets with more than 50% chance are highlighted in blue. However, beware of occupied planets, highlighted in red - they are garrisoned by tyrant's warships, and will destroy one of your ships each time you arrive at one.

So I've noticed in almost all the carts I've played on mobile that the games have an audio delay. Does anyone know if it's fixable?

I wanted to put celeste mods in a multi-cart so I did.
I pretty much stole
(used as a base) the code from this (https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=31895)
What other carts should I add?

Hi! So I'm very new to Pico-8 and recently purchased Pico-8 to test my skills in coding and currently I'm having problems trying to find collision. My Current Code is shown below:
function update_game() if fget(2,0) then --wall else if btnp(⬅️) then p_x-=1 end if btnp(➡️) then p_x+=1 end if btnp(⬆️) then p_y-=1 end if btnp(⬇️) then p_y+=1 end end end |
To describe my problem, I currently can go through any wall I want to, and it still moves.

Here is a little something I wrote because I was bored. It doesn't really have a use, you just watch a simulated user type an (almost) functional program into the Pico-8 CLI and run it.

The gameplay of the game
does not satisfy me :(. Some ideas to improve it would be welcome. :-)

Bomb Hunt v1.1
This is just another Mine Sweeper clone. It's also my first PICO-8 game.

@zep There is a mistake in the PICO-8 manual.
6.14 Additional Lua Features > Coroutines > costatus(c) Return the status of coroutine C as a string: "running" "suspended" "dead" |
The status "normal" is missing.
When coroutine A calls coroutine B, and you check the status of A in B, you will get "normal".

Combine the R-G-Blocks and clear lines to get the highest score!
Gameplay
R-G-Blocks! is a falling block puzzle game based on the concept of additive color mixing and the RGB color model. Each piece in the game features three segments which correspond to the colors red, green and blue in that order. When these segments get combined after placing them on top of each other, they form different colors and eventually white blocks, which cannot be modified. Filling a line with white blocks clears it, but be careful! While the game runs, there's a constantly increasing meter that fills the bottom row with garbage blocks when it gets filled. When you complete a line, the meter gets reset, and the more lines you've cleared, the faster it fills. What's the highest score you can get? Play and find out!
