PicoCo Clicker 🍪
A bite-sized idle empire, baked fresh in PICO-8
What is it?
PicoCo Clicker is my year-long love letter to Cookie Clicker and the wider idle-game genre—hand-crafted inside the delightfully tiny, 128×128-pixel world of PICO-8. I’ve polished it until it gleams, squeezed every token I could out of the fantasy console, and wrapped it all in crunchy retro charm. It’s not “perfect,” but it’s exactly the flavorful little treat I hoped to serve.

Submariner
by Freddie Baldwin
This game is my submission for my Design Games module in my 2nd year of university.
This is an arcade-style game where the only objective is to drive your submarine as long as you can while deadly sea mines surround you on all sides. Shoot them with gathered missiles to clear a path, and pick up bubbles to restore oxygen to your crew!
Changelog:
Version 1.1
- Halved oxygen deplete and replenish rates
Version 1.0
- Initial version

A couch multiplayer game for those who like blowing things up.
Gone Fission! is my take on a strategy game that was a popular PD/Shareware title for the 16 bit microcomputers. To win, eliminate up to 3 other players by blowing up your tiles and claiming their squares.
How To Play
⬅️⬆️⬇️➡️ - move cursor
❎ place atom
🅾️ next player (2+ human players only).
- Place an atom on any empty square on the board.
- You can use your next turn to place an atom on another empty square or on top of your current atom.
- After up to 4 atoms are placed on an empty square (2 in corners, and 3 in sides) they explode, throwing the atoms onto adjacent squares and turning them your colour.
- Cause chain reactions by blowing up multiple squares at a time.

My first ever finished (or as good as) cart :) I tried to make a demake of the solitaire minigame from Zachtronics' Last Call BBS as I've been playing it a lot on my phone. I've only included mouse controls, which I know isn't recommended, I might come back later to add button controls as well if I feel like . There's also no auto solver so you'll have to drag the cards to the foundations manually.
How To Play
This solitaire variant works in a similar way to klondike-solitaire. You can stack cards of alternating colors and decreasing values, card stacks can be moved onto empty columns. Clicking on the deck in the top left will deal out three cards, you can hover over the cards to see their values. When the deck is empty a free cell is unlocked that can be used to store a single card. To win stack all cards in the foundation piles on the left from ace to king! :)

It's feltkat! In space!
This is a fan game about feltkat by Amatrine. Use the directional buttons to move, collect coins, and avoid spacerocks. Help feltkat make it to the planet!
This is my second game ever, so the code isn't very good, but I had a lot of fun making it! There's one extra life at 20 coins, one at 40, and one at 70, but they only spawn if you've lost one or more lives. Feedback is appreciated :D
See if you can beat my high score!

hey guys, can you please explain the hit function in my code. I used a tutorial for it but i want to understand it.
x = 63
y = 35
dx = 0
dy = 0
grid_x = 0
grid_y = 0
map_tile = 0
flag_tile = 0
function _update()
dx = 0
dy = 0
grid_x = flr(x/8)
grid_y = flr(y/8)
flag_tile = fget(mget(grid_x,grid_y))
if btn(⬅️) then dx = -1 end
if btn(➡️) then dx = 1 end
if btn(⬆️) then dy = -1 end
if btn(⬇️) then dy = 1 end
if hit(x+dx,y,7,7) then
dx = 0
end
if hit(x,y+dy,7,7) then
dy = 0
end
x += dx
y += dy
end
function _draw()
cls()
map(0,0,0,0,16,16)
spr(2,x,y)
end
function hit(x,y,w,h)
collide = false
for i=x,x+w,w do
if fget(mget(i/8,y/8))>0 or
fget(mget(i/8,(y+h)/8))>0 then
collide = true
end
end
return collide
end
