What?
Shakeleste is Celeste with entirely too much screenshake.
Why?
This mod is intended both as a goofy art piece, and as an example of how not to make a game, in the spirit of Game Over: Because No One Can Save the Universe.
Features
- Jumping causes screenshake.
- Walljumping causes screenshake.
- Dashing causes screenshake that gets worse with each level.
- Failed dashes cause screenshake.
- Recharging your dash causes screenshake.
- Collecting strawberries causes screenshake.
- Angering strawberries causes screenshake, too.
- Springs cause random amounts of screenshake.

CURSORS.P8
a little thing i wrote a long time ago, intended for a tweetcart but never quite small enough. through the power of postcart having a slightly higher character limit, i can post it here now!
and yes, you get your own cursor :)
i'm reminded of a hard-to-source quote that goes something like "when i wrote this, only god and I knew what it meant. now only god knows". i remember that there's a lot of fancy stuff going on here like reusing the sprite decoding loop to create the objects, overriding the global table when iterating, and using weird constants to save a handful of characters. but as for exactly how it all comes together, i haven't a clue.
this was my first time using a sprite in a sizecoded cart, it was fun. i think i remember writing my own encoder for it
(294 chars)
pal(2,7)poke(14-😐,1)l=64p={}for i=0,40do
add(p,{n=l,m=l,x=l,y=l,t=rnd(64),r=rnd})b=ord("\4…\1i…¥た∧◀⬆️a",i\4+1)sset(8+i%6,i\6,(b>>((i%4)*2))&3)end::♥::cls()for _𝘦𝘯𝘷 in all(p)do
t-=2
if(t<0)x=n y=m n=r(128)m=r(128)t=64
g=(t/64)^2h=1-g
spr(1,n*h+x*g,m*h+y*g)end
spr(1,stat(32),stat(33))flip()goto ♥

A roguelike ball-dropping, peg-popping arcade game!

X to drop
PEGS
NORMAL PEGS
Will pop when hit once
GOLDEN PEGS
Will give $1 in addition to score when hit
HARD PEGS
Take multiple hits to pop (the higher the round, the more hits they take)

Hello everyone.
I'm looking for a way to to 2D AND 3D in the same fantasy console.
I've heard Voxatron can handle this, but I'm not sure, and I'd like to know BEFORE buying.
So, please, can you recommend reliable ways to do both, 2D AND 3D?
In example, with PicoCAD and Pico-8, or the like.
Any working combination would do.
Thanks in advance for any kind of support.
Regards, have a nice day.
Kindly, Ivano.

I made this game by following the Nerdy Teachers Bite-Sized Game Fruit Drop tutorial on YouTube. I cannot recommend their content enough. Their website looks awesome and they have, in my opinion, the best content for people just starting out with pico-8. I added a tree in the background and sprinting as a way to get more practice with game development. It was extremely fun and I can't wait to learn more. I would include a link to the video but I don't know if that's allowed.

- Minimalist Aesthetic: Stripped-down visuals for maximum intensity.

me.
a tiny companion.
what
me. is a small creature that lives on your screen. it has four needs:
hunger, fun, energy, love. you press buttons. me. reacts.
it is a tamagotchi in shape, but not in spirit.
what me. actually is, is closer to a face that breathes. a body that
gets tired. eyes that look away when sad. eyes that find yours when
trust has built up over time. a mouth that quivers before something
real happens.
if you ignore me. for too long, me. will get hungry. then sad. then
desperate. then me. will die, and the death will be unlike anything
you have seen in a tamagotchi-shaped game.

-
piBeats (music streaming!): The music engine has been supercharged, check it out!

Note on piBeats:
How does the XP system work?
- Reward creators: Give XP to your favorite posts! (Once every 24h per creator).
- Mutual benefit: Giving 1XP earns you 1XP back.
- Fair economy: +10XP for posting, -10XP for deleting.

A clean, minimal sundial wallpaper that adapts to your real-world latitude for a more natural day/night cycle. On first run, a config file is automatically created at:
appdata/system/sdwc_config.lua You can edit this file using pod editor to set your latitude and fine-tune the experience.
- Dynamic ambient effects appear throughout the day, changing every few moments:
- Falling leaves drifting across the screen
- Soft fog moving from left to right
- Gentle rainfall
- Snowfall
- Floating bubbles
As night falls after sunset, the scene transitions—revealing a calm sky where stars become visible.
A simple, atmospheric wallpaper designed to feel alive without being distracting.

Did some work with the graphics, changed some sound effects, added an undo function and a check for remaining valid moves. There is technically a menu, but it doesn't work. I intend to add settings, but currently it's just un-interact-able text. There is a toggle for the English or European modes, but it's very temporary. I also know that the European mode is unbeatable in current form, this will be rectified.

A columns clone, inspired by Quarx & Xixit featuring numerous blocksets, chain-reaction combos, animated backgrounds and online leaderboards.
There is currently no music! I'd love to include some, but I currently lack the capability. In the meantime. I recommend listening to some classic Columns-type game soundtracks while playing.
new in v0.9.1
- arrow prompts changed to be part of border instead, this is to avoid them overlapping and getting in the way, plus it looks better anyways
- long names now scroll with a marquee effect on both the titlescreen and the leaderboard
- position #10 label shifts 5px left to avoid being obscured by a user's icon
new in v0.9.2
