This is the first game I've ever published, and I would greatly appreciate your feedback. My game is an homage to the most important videogame of all time.
<h2>Story</h2>
This is the end of a long journey. After a mysterious system failure, two rockets, Nebula 6 and Mars 18, are plummeting towards an unknown planet.
To avoid a catastrophic crash, they must compete in an intergalactic match during their descent.
The high-energy plasma sphere they exchange can rupture, adding an extra layer of danger, requiring skills from the crew.
The winner will gain control and steer towards salvation, while the loser faces inevitable explosion.

Hello everyone
I want to add an item for pick up on my procedural generated levels.
I have a pick up quantity and a table to hold them, and an individual table for each object.
I want items to be placed on tiles with the flag 5 because it's a busy street where my character can't get to a lot of the places.
Seemingly my only option is to use a while loop to iterate through x and y positions until it finds a flag 5 and then discount 1 from the pickup quantity until it's 0.
Unfortunately this results in the game not loading.
while crateamt > 0 do
local x = rnd(map_end)
local y = rnd(map_endy)
if fget(mget(x*8,y*8),5) then
add(crates, crate:new({
x=x,
y=y
}))
crateamt -=1
else
x = rnd(map_end)
y = rnd(map_endy)
end
end |
What other options do I have?

After 2.5 years of on-and-off work, I'm thrilled to share my dream PICO-8 game with the community. Cortex Override is a labor of love where I've attempted to blend elements of Zelda and Armored Core into just 32kb. This project pushed me to the limits of the platform and taught me so much about game development.
I personally handled every aspect of the game from scratch: the graphics, music, game engine, and all mechanics. It's been an incredibly rewarding journey, and I'm excited to share it with you all.
This first version is playable and complete, though probably not perfect. I welcome all feedback, comments, and suggestions - they'll help me grow and improve the game further.

Hello everyone, I'm thinking about de-making Xblast, a linux clone of bomberman that allows up to 6 players at the same time.
Here's a early WIP screenshot :
What I'm worried about now is the 6 players local game play.
On paper, Pico-8 has native support of up to 8 controllers.
I wrote a simple cart that just highlights in red the active buttons of the 8 controllers.
Could anyone confirm that this actually works for up to six controllers before I go further into the dev ?
I'm a bit worried as I've never encountered a pico8 game that plays with more than two controllers at the same time so far.
If you get it it to highlight buttons of players 3 to 7, could you please tell me how you set it up ?

3 and a half months ago, I had a silly idea of "What if Celeste was randomized?". So, I started to work on a little proof of concept, and I really liked it, so I kept improving and adding more content to the point that it really should be shown to the world.
So, here it is. Celeste Randomizer. A cart-mod of Celeste-Classic that randomizes the entire game with a variety of in-game settings to select from.
Original celeste game made by Maddy Thorson and Noel Berry
Randomizer Options
- Seed customization, allowing for people to play the same seed (maybe for races?)
- Changing player spawning or even have multiple at once!
- Berry placement, or none at all
- Changing the map to be vanilla, random tiles, or even procedural generated!
- Changing background and spike tile placements
- Game modes to select from
- Custom player graphics!

I got this idea a week or so ago and got curious if Speako8 could sing. Turns out it can! It's my homage to 2001: A Space Odyssey. The idea is Hal 9000 is now in heaven with Daisy, (who of course was built by Bell Labs) on a bicycle built for two.
Thanks to @bikibird for speako8, making this possible.

An accurate calendar for when you need to know what day of the week any date is on but don't want to leave Pico-8 for some reason
⬆️/⬇️ change year
⬅️/➡️ change month
❎/🅾️ change day
❎+🅾️ toggle day highlight
Allows years between -32767 and 32767 because why not?

Collect coins and race against the clock as you traverse 4 unique levels in Oscar's Adventure! Do you have what it takes to beat the fastest times?
Controls
| Action | Keyboard |
|---|---|
| Move | Left/Right |
| Jump | Z/C |
| Crouch | Down |
| Slide | Down + X |
| Pause | Enter/P |
Pro Tips
- When you jump while performing a slide you can carry the speed of the slide into the air. Try using this technique to reach those hard-to-get coins.
- Press Pause to access some additional options, like toggling the ghost player and Restarting the level.

hey everyone, having some trouble.
im trying to make it so that when you collect the emerald a bit into the first level, it prints "gem get!" next to it.
however, when I collect it, nothing happens.
i would also like the text to disappear after a few seconds. how would I do that?
the emerald code is in tab 5 under function upickups2(). apologies if any of the code is difficult to read, I'm pretty new to this.
also, any further feedback for the game is much appreciated!
(please don't mind the door sprites at the beginning of the level, its just for debug purposes so that I can test level 2 quickly!)

Cocktail Hour
Inspired by true events, Cocktail Hour is a game built to prepare you for real life social events. Your mission: sneak around a party venue and eat as many delicious hors d'oeuvres as you can while avoiding having a conversation with anyone.
However, Aunt Ethel hasn't seen you since before you left for college and she's determined to ensure you miss every single Pig-in-a-blanket and slider and shrimp cocktail there is.
Run, hide, and eat.
Controls
Move using the arrow keys.
X allows you to grab food, only while standing still.
Tips
- When you grab food your score multiplier increases by one. However, entering a conversation can reduce your multiplier or eliminate it completely with bad timing.
