FARM BOT

Hey. This is a toy and not a fully fledged game. I was working through @SpaceCat tutorial on YouTube and developed a touch further than where he left off. I learnt a lot from his video as well as, I have to give a shout out to @Lazydev and @DocRob. They all have amazing informative channels on YouTube as well.

EDIT: Also I forgot to thank NerdyTeacher as well. I yoinked the LERP function from the PICO VIEW web zine. Would really be awesome if there was a PDF/printable version of PICO VIEW. Being out at sea with bad internet makes looking up reference hard.

Like I said, this is a toy. I am still learning a lot and have only completed one Fantasy Console game (CHIPPY - LowresNX). But I have to admit that this is far too addictive playing with Pico8.

I dabbled with adding caterpillars as "enemies" but haven't taken it further than spawning them.

V1 - I have added some sounds to play around with the feel. I have also looked at adding character portraits.

  • LEFT/RIGHT/UP/DOWN (Movement)
  • Z/O (Selection in the hotbar/Action in menus
  • X (Action button in game/Open+Close menus

A good start.


@Ahai64 Thanks!

I've played with a few sounds. Feels more tactile when there is a sound played when actions are performed.

...

I think I won


@Wynn You only win if you enjoyed it enough to spam farm haha. There isn't a goal set yet and the "levels" are very attainable at the moment :-P But let me know what you think though

@Wynn @thesailor
I'm clearly the winner, the game says so.


@RealShadowCaster I don't know. It almost feels like you used AI. :-P


@pablonicholson Pablo! What's up man! Haha... I have seen your updates on TANK. Awesome job man. As you can see I'm still trying to learn haha


A good start and I hope you can polish some things, like a second entrance for the lower hut.
I like the orange/blue indicator for harvest/water but miss the "what field do I stand"-indicator.

Finally it looks like i lost some pico-8 colors and the game :(


@Zellente
Thanks for the feedback. This was created just as a learning project. I didn't plan on taking it further.
