I am starting with Pico-8 and I thought the best thing when learning a new technology is trying to emulate things that have been already done. This time I made the classic game Snake. When game core was functional, I decided to add new things which, I think, are fun like turrets shooting at you and powerups to speedup gameplay like a bomb to destroy bullets and dead limbs and a tongue for eating apples faster. Also, if the Snake eats a turret or a dead limb, is game over too!
I hope you have fun for a little bit!
Great idea! Adding powerups to the game makes this old concept feel really refreshing 🐍
Great game. I've noticed that you can't hold a power up and a directional button at the same time and have the power up fire off.
@MasterNyborg thank you! It started as trying new things for coding but I think it ended up fun!
@joealarson thank you! Whoops, true! I've just uploaded a new version fixing it. Thanks for pointing it out!
