A small bullet hell game made for Bullet Hell Jam 6 ( https://itch.io/jam/bullet-jam-6 ).
You just try and survive as long as possible as more and more bullets try to get you. You do have a bomb and get another one every 30 seconds (if you make it that far...). There are local high scores so you can try and improve over time.
It's inspired by this old game called TKKN / Crazygame that I used to play way too much like 20 years ago - the only record I can find of it is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1NarRBrpmY . I've added different type of bullets and bombing, and it's a lot more cramped due to the PICO-8 resolution, so it has a bit of a different vibe.
My first Pico-8 game made in the small hours of the evening during the last week or so, so the code is pretty horrible. Major thanks to Krystman and the Lazy Devs PICO-8 shmup tutorial series!

PicoMayor
"Be the mayor of a tiny city and carefully plan your way to glory!"


PicoMayor is a city builder game where you have to balance seven Resources (Wealth, Labour, Professionalism, Science, Art and Culture, Logistics, and Happiness) while trying to grow your city. Each building can either consume or produce one or more resources, in addition to either requiring a yearly upkeep or generating a yearly income. Many buildings also interact with each other in ways that may or may not be beneficial, so planning is crucial for your success.






Hello everybody,
I'm trying to implement collision and knock-back(?) for the particles in my game. I've got it sort of working, but--as you can see from the gif above--some particles behave oddly. Some drip down the tiles, others get caught in mid-air.
I was hoping some kind soul could take a look at my code and tell me if there is a better way of going about this. I'm guessing my issue is a result of how I'm checking for collisions. Thanks!
parts = {} function make_px() for i=1,10 do p={} if not p1.left then p.x=p1.x+7 else p.x=p1.x end p.y=p1.y+7 p.c=4 if not p1.left then p.dx=1+rnd(2) else p.dx=-1-rnd(2) end p.dy=rnd(1)-rnd(.5) p.age=rnd(2) add(parts,p) end end function update_px() local g = .05 --check pixels left, right, above, and below. If there is a collision, add knock-back [ [size=16][color=#ffaabb] [ Continue Reading.. ] [/color][/size] ](/bbs/?pid=166778#p) |


ever looked at the picotron default file icons and went "man, i wish i had more icons in these icons"? well have i got the solution for you!
INTRODUCING: icon base!
icon base lets you customize the default file and folder icons, without any metadata shenanigans! want your gif files to have their own icon? want color with your .lua files? want a treble clef on your .sfx files? want your font folder to have a big "T" on it? well now you can do all that and more without having to manually change each file's icon!
for help, consult the "read me" menu item when you open the cart, or you can just ask stuff here.
also it might be a bit broken but ill be trying my best to fix any bugs

About
I created a racing game.
Original inspiration:
https://www.mameson.com/beforeweb/gekiso_racing.html
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPjtxpXzSeo
Race Mode

You can choose from practice, easy, normal, and hard.
For hard mode, I haven't been able to clear any course other than the first one (EIGHT), but theoretically, it should be possible.
If there's a course that feels absolutely impossible, please let me know.
Controls
Left/Right - Steer
X - Accelerate
Edit Mode

You can create your own courses.
Controls
Left/Right/Up/Down - Move the cursor
podtree number / string bug
In podtree if a number is overwritten with a string it remains as a string, even if the user re-enters a number. For example in /appdata/system/code.pod change selcol to "yellow" then back to 10. 10 remains as a string. And results in the code highlighting to go awry (see image) until code.pod is deleted and reset by app.
This is minor, but I was hoping to offload all app settings to podtree,(ie stay in picotron os / app world) without recreating a settings pane, or having to save back to a pod from the app.
