SantaMania
SantaMania is a rhythm based arcade game that started as a shmup and later turned into a boss rush. The goal is to finish the game with as much life as possible. All feedback is appreciated. Have fun!
The code runs on duct tape and wishful thinking, but if you have any questions about it, feel free to ask.
Special thanks to @Krystman for all the tutorials.

How to Play
Use the Left and Right arrow keys to control Santa.
Press X or O in rhythm to shoot "Ho Ho Ho."

Merry Christmas everyone! This winter, don't forget to spend quality time with your snowman friend. You can collect stars too if you like, but the real treasure is memories of whooshing through the snowy landscape together.
Use DPAD/cursors to fly around, and fly downwards for extra speed. After unlocking star mode, tab (or the pause menu) can be used to toggle it on -- press [O] (Z/C) to add a star and [x] to remove the last placed star. Toggle edit mode back off to return to collecting them.
Created for the 2024 PICO-8 Advent Calendar, which also comes as an itch collection. There are 25 great games in there, along with a lovely calendar cart by @SmellyFishstiks to explore them ~ check it out!

how do i test for big numbers that print different than their true value?
function _init() srand(39) a=rnd(-1) --prints -20954.2428 b=-20954.2428 end function draw() if b==a then ?"true" else ?"false" end --prints false end |
I have some big numbers that would be nice to know their true value.
thanks and merry Christmas!

Abyssal Shooter is a simple shmup set within a deep underwater abyss. Survive 10 waves of vicious aquatic creatures by shooting bullets, launching missiles, and unleashing devastating special attacks!
This game was made by following Lazy Dev's Pico 8 Shmup tutorial. Big thanks to Krystman for an easy introduction to Pico 8 development.
Changelog:
v1.1 - Previous release started the player on a later wave w/ 2 bombs already built up. Reset both of these to zero as intended
v1 - Release!

Ho, ho ho! Merry Christmas 2024!
I made a little thing or whatever you want to call it, where you can decorate a little tree with ornaments, and a star.
This is one of my first projects on PICO-8, and my first Release on the BBS!
Intructions
In the very bottom left of the screen, there is a button that lights the tree on fire! Don't worry, it wont damage anything! And the button above that, adds snow!
But the button above THAT, resets the whole tree, smoke appears and then when the smoke fades away, BOOM, nothing on the tree.
Those three buttons use the amazing particle effects from https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=53826 by atzlochtlan, credit to them. *(I hope its not illegal to use without permission...)*
In the very top right corner of the screen there is a button to go into view/screenshot mode, #Merry will appear at the bottom, you can use the a-z, A-Z, 0-9, and Backspace keys, to change the text that appears after the hashtag.
If you move your mouse off the screen in view/screenshot mode, the button in the very top right corner will disappear for optimal screenshot/F7 taking conditions, and if you move your mouse back on screen, it will reappear, but I have found that in Web-View the mouse cannot properly move off the screen.

It's that time of year again — Christmas is just around the corner.
This is just a tiny demoscene-inspired greetings cart. Nothing special, just a bit of pixel art for our loved fantasy console.
Greeting to the whole pico-8 scene, appreciate it! Appreciate you, keeping the spirit alive.
To all coders out there and gamedevs, musicians and graphic wizards.
Big thanks to Lexaloffle.
Enjoy the holidays with your loved ones and families, and have a great start to the new year.

Overview
"Pen Factory” is a port of a mini-game that was originally included in Part-time Job Hell 2000 for Pico-8. The player, as a factory worker, is constantly putting caps on ballpoint pens that are flowing on the conveyor belt. There is no game over or time limit.
Game controls
Z key: Put a cap on a pen
X key: Rotate the pen to adjust the direction.
Rules
Check the orientation of ballpoint pens flowing on the conveyor belt.
Rotate the pen as necessary to attach the cap in the correct orientation.
If the cap is put on correctly, the score is counted. If you make a mistake, it counts as no score.
The game has no time limit or end condition, so you can continue until you are satisfied.

At this time, there are no plans to release the source code. Sorry!

Santa's sleigh has broken down and needs repairs! As chief mechanic, it falls to you to collect the necessary parts to fix it!
In this game you will need to venture into the floating mountain tops to retrieve Santa's Sack of Generosity, and visit the Elf Propulsion Labs (EPL) to obtain the Wonder Drive that power's Santa's sleigh.
Controls:
Move with the d-pad / arrow keys.
Jump with x.
Grab and throw items with z/c/o.
Note: to grab items you must be standing directly on top of them.

Thanks to @bikibird for organizing the advent jam and to the Holiday Jammers for playtesting and encouragement! (... are these my Christmas Jammies?)

PicoZ: A Turn-Based Zombie Survival Game
Hello, Pico-8 community!
I’m thrilled to present my new game, PicoZ, a turn-based, grid-based survival game set in a post-apocalyptic world filled with zombies. If you love strategy, tactical combat, and a bit of resource management, this is the game for you!
Game Description
PicoZ combines classic turn-based gameplay with resource management and stealth mechanics to create a tense and challenging experience. Plan your actions and avoid the undead as you make your way through the levels.
Key Features
- 🎮 Turn-Based Combat: Every move counts! Make strategic decisions to outwit the zombies.
- 🧟 Dynamic Enemies: Zombies with unique behaviors add unpredictability to every level.
- 🗺️ Fog of War: Explore the map cautiously—your visibility is limited!
- 🛠️ Resource Management: Collect keys, potions, and weapons to improve your chances of survival.
- ⚔️ Multiple Weapons: Use melee weapons like knives or firearms like pistols (but beware, they’re noisy!).
- 🧩 Challenging Levels: Progressively difficult levels with new challenges and surprises.

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to share a demo of something that I've been working on as part of journey of learning Pico 8. I've drawn so much inspiration from popular shooters, especially Xenon 2 on the Amiga.
There's plenty still left to do but I don't know if this will turn into a proper game as it's somewhat unconventional how I've done things. All of the game graphical output is using custom code and interacting directly with the video memory. I'm not using any of the in-built command set - mostly using memcpy.
The next part I'll be working on is enemy AI. It won't be anything spectacular, probably just plain old predefined paths but, lets see where things go.
Anyway, hope you like the demo.
