"I'm an enchantress, focusing on spells of arcane geometry. I believe each of us possess a natural understanding of magic and it's only a matter of focusing on it and allowing the creative spirit of the natural world to guide your hand.
To test my theory of everyone's inner arcane knowledge, I'm collecting sigils, magical symbols, drawn from natural born creativity, not the white tower wizards with all their years of study, but raw potential ability that I sense in you.
Here's a blank page from my collection, draw whatever comes to mind in the square here, and let that guide your decisions of naming and describing what you think it does.
Enjoy the process and I so look forward to adding yours to my collection."

"I'm a cartographer, a map maker that is. And I've heard you're quite the adventurer. I'm collecting maps of dungeons from all over the kingdom to help other adventurer's survive. I have all the supplies, scrolls, pens, and ink. I just need you to draw what you remember from any dungeons you've explored.
All I need is an outline of rooms and corridors. Oh and it would be extra helpful if you could label the map either with words or symbols.
Please make it as detailed as your memory allows. I'll accept any map by the way, even if it's not a dungeon! Maybe you've explored a magical forest or a dragon's den.
I love maps so much, I can't wait to see what you draw for me. Thank you!"

"Hi, I am the local alchemist, and I've had a stall in the market, but I'm upgrading to a full shop in town and I need shelves to display all 16 of my potions! I've got my shop sign already and all the potions are ready to go, I just need you to help decorate the shop and display them nicely.
This is how the shop is prepared for you, and I've cast a levitation spell on the potions you see. You can move them around yourself, or just leave them be and build something like a bookshelf like this for me to place them on.
You can change the floor design, the wall color, and make the display as fancy as you'd like. Just make sure I still have my sign and all 16 potions on display.
Thank you! I can't believe I'm going to have my own potion shop!"

Steal pies. Feed the hungry.
In this sequel/demake of my first game jam game, play to beat your high score!
Notes
- I know the one-way tile collision is buggy. If anyone knows an easy fix, please let me know!!
- My original game (which used art assets, credited on my Itch page) is here.
- Have fun!!

"Leaves" (2022-11-07)
Wind is getting colder. You think about the elderly downstairs neighbor who passed away. You didn't know her well but she always assured you she doesn't mind the stomping.

The plasma globe at the flea market hums quietly. Beams dance under your fingertips. It looks just like the one you had years ago-until your brother smashed it. And laughed. Now, you hate this lamp.

One of the games I used to play the most was populous.
While some of my friends could play it with beautiful graphics on their amiga or atari ST :
I was playing on a slow TO-16 PC compatible with CGA graphics and a monochrome green screen. You can't even find an online picture of a setting that bad for this game, the closest I could find online was color CGA that is actually almost as bad looking as the green version.
Despite the visuals, I was hooked and somehow managed to finish the game (level 400 something), using every possible trick available. (save scumming so the "random" swamps would always spawn under the enemy's knights feet, abusing the bad AI when possible (enemy flood that insta-kill every single enemy unit was the most memorable), using a bug that allowed to raise the terrain to level 1 on levels where it was disabled...).
Despite all that, after level 400, the building speed of the computer was just insane : he would add a block every frame (around 4 times per second on my crappy PC), making enemy progressing absolutely overwhelming.

I've created a simple proof of concept online serverless multiplayer pico-8 game using webRTC
The cartridge will not be playable here but I've added it regardless
The game can be accessed and played here
WebRTC and game source code can be found here

would it be possible to add a feature to download carts directly from splore inside pico-8 to a folder in .lexaloffle/pico-8/ that would be configurable in .lexaloffle/pico-8/config.txt in the same manor the carts and save data folders are configurable?

Graphics issue
To fix this issue. Fully close the Pico-8 after load the game up. Load the game again. All fine after that.

Work in progress match-3-style puzzle game about baking. This is my first pico-8 game so lemme know what you think.
