Your spaceship is travelling back to Earth.

After 15 years of hyper sleep, you awaken to find your ship badly damaged and off-course.

You are orbiting an unknown planet with no communications network, and no way of knowing where you are or how to get home.

Your priority is to restore and upgrade essential systems to contact Earth for rescue.

DEEP SPACE is an incremental game where you take control of a damaged ship lost in space. Restore the ships systems, deploy a fleet of satellites and rovers around the planet you orbit, and contact Earth for rescue.

Hey folks! I'm trying to get Pico 8 running on my ODriod Go Advance running Batocera 37. When I select a cart and run it using "lexaloffle PICO8 OFFICIAL", it does nothing. I have exhausted all Google sources. I followed the Pico 8 wiki entry instructions on the Batocera site. The log says I'm getting this error: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/userdata/bios/pico-8/pico8' However there is clearly a pico-8 directory. I did set execute permissions on the pico8 file. Any thoughts?

How?

• It's recommended to run it in Pico-8 with "-displays_x 2 -displays_y 2".
• If you don't (say, if you run it in the BBS), you'd have to move the mouse around to see the whole window

• In particular, move the mouse to the bottom-left corner to see the Spectrum prompt

• You can use the keyboard to type stuff
• The symbol key is Tab.
• ZX Spectrum keyboard layout: http://slady.net/Sinclair-ZX-Spectrum-keyboard/layout/
• ZX Spectrum user manual: https://worldofspectrum.org/ZXBasicManual/

• Non-spectrum keys like punctuation/backspace automatically press the right shift/symbol combination

• To load a tape:
• First type 'j' for load.
• Then type double-quotes (") twice. On the BBS or on non-standard keyboard layouts, you're better off pressing Tab+P to get double-quotes. (On BBS, '~' might also work - looks like an emscripten bug).

This small cart was made from scratch during a live coding video: Instant Coding episode 18 (the conversations are in French, but hopefully you can easily follow the code).

Don't expect any game here, it is more a "prove of concept"-demo.

Control:
X for jump
o for grabing things

down+jump - fall down on "half-tiles"
stand+up - look up
stand+down - look down.

there is a coyote-time, that you can jump for a short time, when you run over a "cliff".
up - run on "half-tiles-slopes" (the green on the right side, behind the "secret"-Wall

Hi everyone,

I tried to re-create a Mode-7 style pseudo-3D effect in PICO-8 and ended up making a little minigolf game out of it. It has 9 holes with a steady increase in difficulty, including some nasty sand bunkers and tricky slopes. If you don't like the courses, you can simply create your own using PICO's map editor. Have fun!

---Controls---
Left/Right: Rotate camera
Up: Charge up shot

Cheers!

musi pi toki pona

I'm currently learning Toki Pona, and made a
little multiple choice game to help me memorize the vocab.

Wrote logic for encoding custom draw palettes, and additional 48 color virtual palette (by tiling) for my little encoder.
The tiling needs a lot of fine-tuning per an image, but I begin to know how...

bounce V2

again a test to get better at pico.

im just trying to make little mechanics now.

controls

X = Change friction.
Z = Add speed.
⬆️⬅️➡️⬇️ = Choose direction to add speed.

I found this website (https://tic80.com/) witch is pretty much just Pico-8 with fewer limitations and a cheaper cost, Pico-8 already has an education edition for free so this is not really needed and seems to be just a knock-off.

Introducing Pirouette

Pirouette is an animated, explorable, generative art toy. So named for the dancing, twirling shapes the algorithm generates, I was inspired to make this after seeing a RISC assembly version that debuted recently.
https://youtu.be/VxGOBxy6oAY?feature=shared

A note from the creator of that implementation pointed me to a message board with a version running in Sinclair BASIC, whose author says he's not sure where he obtained the original algorithm. My hunt continues. Other ports to BBC BASIC, Owlet, and Processing (Java edition) are available at the board posting.
https://stardot.org.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=25833

The port

This Pico-8 implementation tries its best to present the beauty of the 20-line (!) original within the 16-color limits of our beloved fantasy console. I tried to match a 15-color (need black for background) palette from Pico-8's 32-color extended colors to the original 32-bit color gamut and was happy (and a little surprised) to see expected shapes and swirls emerging from the void.

Hey everyone!

I've been messing around with picotron, and some people keep saying (including myself) that they hope for more buttons to work with or more input methods, but i've discovered something interesting that anyone can use! (until api changes)

I've made a keyboard tester that is fully commented out, and explains how it works and how get_key works and how to use it. to run the cart, click "show" below and copypaste code into picotron, then run it.

-- get_key_<state/pressed> usage example
-- made by antibrain

-- define list of all supported key names

keys={"1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","0",
       "q","w","e","r","t","y","u","i","o","p",
       "a","s","d","f","g","h","j","k","l",
       "z","x","c","v","b","n","m",
       "[","]","shift","space","backspace"}

--define vars

currentkeyname=""
keystr=""
keyoffset=0
kpressed=true
ikd=false

-- get_key usage:

-- get_key_pressed(key) checks if key "key" is pressed and returns "true" for the frame that key "key" is pressed.
-- get_key_state(key) returns 1 if key "key" is held. if key "key" isnt held, returns "nil" 

-- "q", "1", "space", "backspace" are all valid key names.
-- "Q", "!", "^", "`" are not valid key names.

-- lowercase letters, numbers, and control keys (space, alt, backspace, etc) are all valid key names
-- uppercase letters, symbols, F keys and hotkeys are NOT valid key names.
-- if you want to use symbols (eg. shift+4=$), you can check if shift is held, then change output chars while it is.

-- an easy way to check for all keys is to make a table of all supported keynames, then iterate over it.

-- main update loop (30fps)

function _update()

    -- clear screen and reset drawing vars

    cls()
    kstrx=6
    kstry=20

    --for every key in keys, run key checking script

    for i=1,#keys do

        -- check if key "keys[i]" is held and set it to currentkey
        currentkey=get_key_state(keys[i])

        -- if current key isnt held, set it to 0 so future calculations dont die
        if currentkey==nil then currentkey=0 end    

        -- if current key is held, then set its name to currentkeyname for later
        if currentkey==1 then currentkeyname=keys[i] end

        -- if key string length in pixels is longer than screen length, move it back by 476 ish pixels
        if (kstrx-(keyoffset*5))+(#keystr*5)>480 then kstrx=6 kstry+=8 j=#keystr-keyoffset keyoffset=#keystr end
        if (#keystr<(keyoffset)) then keyoffset-=j end

        -- display all keys and change its color to red if key is held
        print(keys[i],6+(i*6),6,currentkey+7)

        -- draw line at next char in keystr to show where next char will go
        if sub(tostr(flr(time())/2),-1)=="5" then
        line(((#keystr+1)*5)-keyoffset*5,kstry+8,(((#keystr+1)*5)+4)-keyoffset*5,kstry+8,currentkey+7)
        end
        -- draw key string at kstrx,kstry in hyperlink blue
        print(keystr,kstrx-(keyoffset*5),kstry,28)

        -- if a key hasnt been pressed this frame
        if ikd==false then
            -- set ikd to true if one is
            ikd=get_key_pressed(keys[i])
        end

        -- if a key has been pressed this frame
        if ikd==true then

            -- set space to " " so that it doesnt just add the word "space" to keystr
            if currentkeyname=="space" then currentkeyname=" " end

            -- if backspace has been pressed, set keyname to "" so it doesnt print anything, then remove one char from end of keystr by setting keystr to substring of keystr from char 0 to char #keystr minus 1
            if currentkeyname=="backspace" then currentkeyname="" keystr=sub(keystr,0,#keystr-1) end
            keystr=keystr..currentkeyname

            --reset key vars
            currentkeyname=""
            ikd=false
        end
    end
end

This is just a test to get better a pico 8

might use on a bin ball machine :)

there are still a lot of bugs.

controls

X = y boost. only goes down.
O = x boost. based on current x direction.

Before I make anything fun, I need an image format (and encoder/decoder) which works on PICO-8.
And yeah, I LOVE reinventing THE WHEEL...
It's the result of my first day with PICO-8. I wrote the encoder in Javascript, which I wlll release somewhere.
