Did a really simple snake game during Saturday night :) haven't figured out how to properly increase the speed of the game so help with that and feedback is vert much appreciated.
Edit:
Added particles screen shake high score and difficulty selector
if you want to increase the speed of your game you could use
function _update60()
instead of
function _update()
which will double your FPS if possible.
This would make your snake move even faster though and in my opinion it is way to fast already. I d suggest changing this part :
line:
0047 if snake.d == "�" then 0048 y += 1 0049 elseif snake.d == "�" then 0050 y -= 1 0051 elseif snake.d == "�" then 0052 x -= 1 0053 elseif snake.d == "�" then 0054 x += 1 0055 end |
to x += 0.3 or similar values, 1 is just to much, it 30 pixels in one second and your pico 8 screen only has 128x128 pixels.
I like the switching colors! :) :)
I didn't explained myself sorry, I want it to increase the speed more smoothly currently if you change the "s" variable to 4 it's the "normal" speed or the initial speed the game should have, but the steps between speed 4 -> 1 is the thing that is causing me trouble. I move the snake 1 unit in the grid so the position always matches the grid and it doesn't end up on half a cell of the grid, I tried moving it a fraction of the cell and it felt really frustrating to play, so I think the solution is to only move certain frames, and that's the part I'm having problems with
Sorry if it's confusing.
