A little silly lil' game I made to play with my friends (so its only two player), and figured I might as well publish it.
Some things to know:
You gotta fast fall and let go before hitting the ground to gain height.
If you dash into a bullet it is reflected and bounces back and recharges your dash instantly (yes ping pong is possible).
The rest is to be discovered as you play, have fun!
Wallpaper that recreates the iconic 10 PRINT program for the Commodore 64 in your Picotron.
Instructions:
-
run
load #tenprint-0
-
run
save /appdata/system/wallpapers/tenprint.p64.png
(you might have to create the wallpaper folder, if you haven't done that yet) - open System Settings and select this wallpaper from the list
Good day, my monitor is 2560x1440, but on fullscreen there are black borders around the Picotron window. To get fullscreen without borders I have to enable stretching, which makes the image blurry.
1440p is just 720p doubled so I assumed there should be no problem scaling to that resolution, but it seems like the window itself is running at 1920x1080 in the center with black borders around it.
Is there a way to scale to cover the entire screen without making the image blurry?







Guide
Currently (in Picotron 0.1.0e) it's hard to use a PNG image as a sprite. You can fetch("myimage.png")
, but the result isn't in the right image format. So, here's a small tool to convert PNG files into picotron sprites.
Drag any .png or .qoi image into the tool to convert it into a sprite pod on your clipboard. You can paste this into the graphics editor, or into code.
Drag in a .hex file (e.g. from lospec.com) or a .pal file (e.g. from OkPal) before importing your png to change the import palette.
Details
Import speed
This tool prioritizes import speed. Images with only a few unique colors (e.g. an image already in the picotron palette) will import much faster than images with many colors.

About
Created by Pidibit as a jam game for Trijam #261, a three-hour game jam.
The jam theme was One wrong move.
This is my first Trijam entry and first project in PICO-8, I love it! 😍

A custom theme for Picotron that tries to recreate the iconic colors of PICO-8's editors.

There are two ways to get this theme into your copy of Picotron. The first one is the more complicated manual process that I originally posted, and the second is just copy-pasting a command or two into the terminal:
Method 1: The manual way





I was getting to grips with SSPR(), and whipped up something resembling a title screen for a...game???
I had so much fun just THRASHING that SSPR() command here! I'm aware SSPR() existed on Pico-8
as well, but this was just me messing with it, and since I made something resembling Contra on
Pico-8, I figured why not tease "something what could be..." while I'm at it?
Let me know what you think!




It's Factorio meets Scrabble!
