Instructions:
Use the arrow keys to navigate the maze. You must walk over each red checkpoint before progressing to the next level, which is triggered by the blue tile. Each checkpoint will also give you more steps, displayed in the top left corner. If you run out of steps before completing the level you lose.
About:
My main goal with this game was to better understand tiles and collisions. I also wanted to add some music and try making a game with levels.

Hi!! it used to be when i did podnet:// in the file browser and then clicked into my user, i could put files in there and see em. Right now when I go in there i dont see any of the carts ive put in there before, and if i drag a new one in then it still just looks empty. Same thing if i try to create a new folder in there. Is something up with podnet?
I did update my picotron to 0.3.0d cause I was on C or B, to see if that would fix anything, but it doesnt seem like it.
Cheers!

I've been playing around with PICO-8 to explore what it might be like to use for computer game art and philosophy. Here's my latest:
NHS Manager
A tiny art-game about public healthcare in modern Britain.
"This was the first time I addressed a contemporary political issue in an art-game. I thought it would be interesting to make a simple simulator about being a manager of an NHS hospital. I used to play games like Theme Hospital and Sim City. They always had a sharp satirical edge, something that was lost as the genre developed in the 2000s. Given the pressures on the NHS today, I wanted to go back to that. Like many people in Britain, I've received fantastic care from the NHS. But there's also times when I've been let down. And I've lived through all the rounds of 'reforms'. I even worked as a healthcare assistant for a bit, back at the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital when I was first swapping PICO-8 carts. This game is both a love letter to and a playful satire of an institution that we need more than ever."

As Facebook is wont to do, it showed me a "memory" today of what can probably be considered my PICO-8 Anniversary - 10 years today!
The PocketCHIP didn't last but the PICO-8 certainly did! I know I haven't released anything new in a while...life and all, but I'm always getting inspiration and jotting down ideas. Honestly, I can't even lurk on Blue Sky anymore because I see so much motivating stuff that it'll totally de-rail the projects I actually need to get finished! Curse you, all!
-
To those that helped me get started both in code and concepts, THANK YOU.
-
To all of those that have played my games and shared feedback, THANK YOU.
- To @zep maybe most of all...THANK YOU for making a platform that is as fun to create on as it is to play on.
I guess some of my games can be considered "classics" now after 10 years and they might be buried under piles of much better-looking and technically marvelous games, but I take pride in the fact that they largely still hold up even though they were early games in timeline.

I was wondering if importing music into Picotron was possible, I assume that translating audio files is a much different beast than simple image files (for spritesheets and such) but I was wondering if Picotron supports it? I couldn't find anything in the documentation about it so I assume it's impossible but I figured I might as well ask.
