Mini Golf #pico8 game

Started a silly little mock up project today, which exploded into an actual one, so keep your eyes peeled for little updates over here.

(psst... there is already more on our discord server https://discord.gg/zjWFeSQnXa)

Here are the complete gif of the WIP evolution of #picocraft that I made with @brullov_art
Each sequence is focus on a feature, quirks, bugs, trials / error...

The game is playable on lexaloffle BBS, incoming on itch soon... :)

It is digging time!

We played the amazing Mole Mole by @adamatomic.bsky.social and gotta say, for anyone who hasn't played it, go and PLAY IT!

Half an hour of amazing sokoban puzzles for your pleasure!

Hoppy Easter from me and Pac Bun, still spreading the free love in their own special way 4 years on

As far as I know, no-one's ever unlocked the easter egg for completing all 16 levels without dying - especially me with a laptop up arrow not working reliably at all...

There's a work-in-progress version of my little #pico8 flight simulator here:

I'd really appreciate any feedback, particularly if it helps me tweak the flight model to be (somewhat) more realistic.

I'll check out pico8's music tracker and see how it works
me, 3 hours later:

I have never seen the #pico8 fantasy console pushed this hard. Just ran this demo in a browser on my phone no problem. https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?pid=145596#playing

“The cart data is stored using a steganographic process. Each PICO-8 byte is stored as the two least significant bits of each of the four color channels, ordered ARGB (E.g: the A channel stores the 2 most significant bits in the bytes). The image is 160 pixels wide and 205 pixels high, for a possible storage of 32,800 (0x8020) bytes.”

No freakin' way. I thought there was like a data fork in the PNG you could just chuck stuff into. #pico8

These artists are making tiny ROMs that will probably outlive us all

I think a found a new favourite fantasy console computer thingy. I like PICO-8 and TIC-80 deeply, but there’s something in Unx’s minimalism that stands out.

So pleased that #pico8 demo The Mind won the Meteorics Midskool award! https://youtu.be/jRGJVH90ka0?si=czuIoVOrgrXohhw-

Testing an overpowered plasma drill. It's time to start adding a proper game loop and for that I need minerals and a boat :)

Trying out outlines combined with other p8scii features for #picotron 0.2.0d. The outline command ("\^o") takes a colour and a bitfield indicating which neighbours to set. This will probably also make it into #pico8 0.2.7 along with rrect()

it has now been an absolutely terrifying TEN years since I got access to #pico8 and started doing the most comfortable and satisfying game development I've ever done. the constraints allowed me to finally get out of my own way and make things and finish them.

I used it for most of my ~5 years doing #onegameamonth and I've used it for a few fun things since (nothing released though, I think). you can see all my carts here, along with a couple of Voxatron ones:

try it!
