PICO POOL:
how to play:
when you run the game, click in the direction you want to hit the ball.
your goal is to get as many balls in in a row as possible
if you run out of hits (you have 3 each level) then you lose
if you get the white ball in one of the holes then you loose
NOTES:
the farther you bring the pointer from the ball, the harder the hit.
after one hit, you cant hit again until the white ball stops.
DISCLAIMERS:
I am only 14, so dont expect it to be that good, im really really bad at pixel art, I did my best
I hope you enjoy :D

How do I move my unlisted game to the public forum? While editing it I clicked on 'Move to public forum' but I'm not sure if it did anything.

I posted a few days ago about implementing Nuclear Throne style level generation I have been tinkering around with it, current progress so far,
- I got a character
- larger rooms
- An "accidental" flame thrower.
Wrote a custom ECS system that can handle well over 2.5k entities easily(probably can handler much higher but I didn't bother to check :p)
Still need to implement enemies n all, but I am having pretty fun with pico8 :D

I have just installed pico-8 on my Ambernic RG351P and it works but the controls are not right.
The d-pad doesn't work on any game, tbe left analogue stick works but is reversed so left is actually
right and up is down etc.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Implementing nuclear throne's level generation on pico8
I have been tinkering around with procedural level generation and Pico-8 for a few days which lead me to reimplementing a portion of Vlambeer 's iconic game Nuclear Throne's level generation.
I decided to not exactly follow their algorithm but a pretty close implementation of it. Mainly because the 1:1 implementation didn't create a very good looking map on pico8 imo.
Using a combination of
- Random walk and
- Weighted directional bias (a.k.a a random % that I hand tweaked to look satisfactory, no maths involved :p)
The algorithm was able to carve out organic levels that were pretty similar to Nuclear Throne.

I am making a typing game in pico-8, however when I press the enter and p keys it always brings me to the pause menu. Is there a way to prevent this?
