This is a small project from years ago I never finished. It is playable so I figured I would upload it.
Project Alice
Project ALICE is a small game based a variation of Shannon's Switching game as described in on Oxley's survey on Graph Theory.
BOB destroys a connection every turn
ALICE protects a connection from being destroyed every turn
BOB wins if the network is disconnected
ALICE wins if all nodes are reachable through protected edges
Playing as BOB can be trivial if you know what to do. I recommend playing as ALICE (Protector)

this is an extremely minor bug, but the built-in documentation for PGET and PSET shows example code for SGET and SSET instead.

It is my first SHMUP WIP demo.
- x: Normal shot (4 steps power up)
- y: Missiles
- P mark: Power up
- M mark: Missile supply
- You get bonus scores by continuing to get P and M marks without getting any damages.
- Getting damaged, you lost a power-up.
** RECOMMEND PLAYING with a GAME PAD!
It is currently a technical demo, and there is no gameplay adjustment. Sorry.
Music is temporary. (Please help me with your music)
You can play the following two stages.

A small demo of line-of-sight visibility in a procedurally generated maze.
Cells fade based on distance, and walls block the view.

I haven't used Pico-8 in a while but I just tried it today and suddenly I am getting stuck at the pause screen whenever I try running a Pico-8 game on the web.
The pause screen comes up right after Pico-8 initializes. I can dismiss it, but it reappears again right away.
This doesn't happen when I run Pico-8 locally.
I've tried on both Edge and Chrome and I get the same thing.
Any ideas?

EAT food
DASH over walls (& yo'self!)
BUILD your combo
BE a snek
Controls
- Arrow keys to turn
- [O] to dash (keyboard 'z')
How To Play
An updated take on the classic Snake formula. Snake is fun, but it tends to drag. That's where the DASH comes in. You can dash over walls AND yourself. This allows for much quicker gameplay, more unique situations, & a higher skill ceiling.
Combos add extra points when you eat food. Eating food with a dash is worth more points. Skillful balance of picking your path & timing your dashes is key!
I hope you enjoy, and thank you for playing.
Post your high scores in the comments!

My first not-totally-trivial pico-8 cart. Uses velocity. I'll be using this to cover pico-8 basics so if there are any ways to clean up the code at all I'm all ears.

hey everyone, I was watching this video going over the basics of ECS, and I was inspired to try a lightweight pico-8 implementation of the concept. this is pretty rough and unoptimized, but I thought I'd post it here in case it's of use to anyone or happens to spark a conversation.
I implemented it slightly differently, with the "systems" and "relations" part bundled into one system I refer inside as "relations". essentially, you can easily specify pairs of entity types to call a function over. this is the part that isn't super optimized, since there's no caching going on. but the upside is the whole thing is only 242 tokens atm.
