A game where you try to knock the other soap off the ice block

I tried my best to implement more interesting things such as power ups and different levels, but I gave up. I might update it sometime, but probably not.

Thanks to everyone in the Pico8 discord who gave me suggestions!

Known flaws:
The collision is a bit janky sometimes

My first Pico-8 experience

Hey there! I’m a Game Development and Design student, and for an assignment I was encouraged to try a new engine outside of Unity and Unreal. PICO-8 came highly recommended, so after exploring how different it feels from Unity, I put together this small project in just two days: Oceanfall.

In this game, you play as a cute axolotl blowing bubbles at pieces of trash to stop pollution and keep the ocean clean!"

In the future, I might add menus (main menu, lose menu and some sort of settings menu), sounds (I got a headache just from looking at all these buttons!) and some more engaging gameplay loop (difficulty ramping up, etc.)

Hex Die is a time-freezing tactics game where your only weapon is a very special die.

Roll the Hex Die to unleash a variety of skills while avoiding the enemy attacks.

The Hex Die gathers power after each fight - Upgrade its pips, pick a stronger skill, or add unique effects.

The Hex Die is powerful.

Each roll of the die freezes time until you act. Outmatched by increasingly dangerous foes, this power is your lifeline.

But don't waste too many rolls, because...

The Hex Die is cursed.

At night, one of the sides becomes cursed. Each roll has a chance to make you lose a tile on your side of the board. Play efficiently or this curse could be the end of your journey.

"Chagrin d'amour" is a very tiny small platform game that can be completed in a few minutes. There are currently 49 levels. In each one, you need to collect all the hearts to move on to the next level before time runs out. Watch out for the ghosts, they're super annoying. If you beat the game under 10 mn you could try the hard mode.

"Chagrin d'amour" was made as part of the Low Rez Jam 2025, I hope you like it.

z for shoot and x for bomb
the drink can make you shoot faster, and the coin is just for point, it will also count how many plane you crash at last
it's a simple shmup game with random plane appear and have a last boss fight, hope you enjoy it

First time making a pico-8 game! This is our own spin on the "cave diver" game from mboffin's pico-8 gamedev zine! Includes code to generate stalactites and stalagmites, ice and moss, and (visual-only) water, as well as our own custom soundtrack! It's probably not very balanced but that's okay lol.

Asher's Big Toy Trouble

Added - Jumping cancels invincible frames

For my 5th completed Pico-8 project, I wanted to try a platformer, and I was inspired by the recent birth of my first grandchild. I thought it might be cute to be a baby fighting off a toy rebellion Mario-style. As always, any feedback is appreciated, especially regarding level design as this is my first attempt at it lol.

Objective

Defeat all the toys in the nursery by jumping on their heads (beware the Marionettes) or throwing Pacifiers at them.

How to Play

Asher can be moved around the level with the arrow keys or D-pad. Left or right runs, and down will crouch or slide (to dodge through enemies or projectiles) if he's running. Wall Slide by pressing left or right while falling down a wall.

A tiny fishing game made for the Chili Code Jam #3, Theme WAVES: https://itch.io/jam/-chili-code-jam-3-ranked-400-in-prizes/rate/3830073

The game can be already finished and high score chasing can be done afterwards.

Features:

  • 5 different levels with different characteristics,fish, difficulty, music and theme.
  • Shop with upgrades for the fishing ship.

Still to be improved:

  • Game balance and progression
  • Generation algorithm

Nice to have:

  • Depth-base graphic effects
  • animated sprites

I'd really appreciate any feedback and recommendations! :)

Tetro8 is a simple Tetris clone designed to provide a "modern" Tetris experience.

Controls

By default the game uses the following controls.

  • Left and Right: Shifts the active piece left and right
  • Down: Increase the drop speed of the active piece
  • Up: Perform a fast drop which will instantly drop the active piece to the bottom of the board
  • (X): Rotate the active piece
  • (O): Hold the active piece. If you already have a piece in the hold cell, that piece will be swapped in as the active piece

Got so inspired by the upcoming Falling Block Jam that I made one early oops !!

You play as a wizard who has bad aim and bad magic... your goal is to rebuild all the castles... includes a couple of cheeky references to a previous cart....

UPDATE - you can invert the spin direction and disable flashing from the pause menu

It’s the year 1997, with the recent surge in developing homebrew for the PICO-8 home computer, I've decided to take a crack at it and remake my favorite LX-II game, OVERBOLD, which I have fond memories of playing back in the 80's.

DISCLAIMER: This is a fan-made remake of the UFO 50 game OVERBOLD, I have no association with Mossmouth (the studio that made the game this is based on).

Overview

OVERBOLD FME (fan-made edition) for the PICO-8 is a brutal, topdown shoot-em-up, with strategic planning. You fight various enemies, gaining more rewards the more enemies you choose to fight. Play aggressively to net powerful upgrades- just make sure not to go over bold!

I made this little snake replica as my 1st game (not counting tutorial follows). Very simple, but I am still proud of my self. I have yet to add music to the game, and I think I wanna add a "half-step" to the moving so the animation is smoother. Code isnt perfect either and could use a bit of clean up, but I am very lazy.

Update 24/08:
Added score to the game (wow such a big change)

Update 30/08:
Added turning sfx and cleaned up the code a little (still not good tho lol)

Update 31/08:
Added music and further refined the code to have an easily extandable state machine. I think I'm gonna leave this project and do other stuff.

Also known as Insanity or Madness. Peg Twister is a simple board game where a single player moves red and blue pegs from opposite ends of the board to the other side, switching their positions. The player can only move forward one space at a time or jump over another peg.

Hello folks,

Just thought I'd share my current WIP.
The main reason behind this game for me was to work very minimally with sprites to understand how they work, this then developed into one of those "big number gets big" kind of games.

The idea of the game is to get 32767cr in the quickest time possible (game will tell you end time when you reach this number).
You must balance the amount of power you have while upgrading your modules to make them product larger sums of cr each tick.

Basic controls are:
up,down,left,right = move cursor
x = select/more options
o = go back

There is quite a bit of balancing to be had with each module but it works for now.

While releasing STAR SPLORE, my second cart, I realized that it's nice to change the default title of you carts and its threads.

Here's what happens when you search for "star_splore" in "New Carts", for example.

You get a nice cart title, "STAR SPLORE 2025-08-16". If you click on it, you go to STAR SPLORE's thread.

  • The thread will have a nice title, "STAR SPLORE", which is independent of the cart's version.
  • The cart will have the same nice title as before.
  • Note that both titles are different from the cart's ID (star_splore).

I didn't pay attention to that when I released Tiny Tactics, my first cart.

You can see how it didn't look so nice.

Maybe those titles weren't exactly BAD, but I could do better.
