The character limit pretty much forces you to make something abstract, but I wanted to try and make a scene of some sort. :)

This takes advantage of the fact that comparing two nil values together is true to initialize a table on the first pass inside the draw loop!

Not tweet length, sadly >:(

end
end

circfill(120,50+cos(f)25,r3,7)

end


I decided I wanted to try to make something that was somehow interactive. Here's my tweet-length "RPG" (ha).

You press "Z" to "attack" and then the monster attacks. Monster HP on the left, your HP on the right. Attack until one of you (or both) is dead. If you run this in the PICO-8 app, it'll quit back to the command line after it ends. But in the cartridge version I guess it's perma-death. ;)

u=8
m=6
cls()function _draw()
if btnp(4) then
m-=flr(rnd(3))
u-=flr(rnd(4))
print(m..":"..u)
end
if(m<=0)print(":)")
if(u<=0)print(":(")
end

I had a version that displayed a bit more information to the player, but had to remove it to fit in 140 chars. :D

I couldn't quite do what I wanted in one tweet, so I used two (heresy!)

function n(a,b) return {a,b,(r(4)+1)*(2*r(2)-1),(r(4)+1)*(2*r(2)-1),r(15)+2} end

if (b[2]>120 or b[2]<8) b[4]*=-1
circfill(b[1],b[2],3,b[5])

If I only had two more characters I'd be able to fit in a cls() and fill the entire screen.
Edit: was able to squeeze in a cls() by using goto

@Alberton: oh man, that's genius. If it wasn't for the character limit you could probably do something nice with this by combining it with the secret wide characters (\130,\140 etc).

@NuSan: You could probably make a pretty good fire with that method if you change the math and the palette a little.


@Alberton and @qbicfeet These are absolutely amazing!!! Do you mind me using those snippets for a game later? There would be attribution of course. :)

use the submit cart option from the forum main area, then insert that tag in a normal post!
