So, i used the jam as an excuse to make my first little game on pico8 and learn more about the platform and its limitations, it was only a couple hours of work and really incomplete and barebones, but i intent on making it better and i also have some ideas for the next projects with pico8
EDIT: posted a new version, with game over screen, persistent high scores and a title screen
EDIT2: improved the title and game over screens and added some info on how to find me

Had a tooth extracted at the dentist, it's a weird experience. Decided to make up this sketchy cart loosely based on it, not interactive~

I started tinkering with an _update60 cart the other day and I was getting stuttery behavior.
Dug deep into possible performance bugs in my game. Then realized I had stuttery graphics (< 60 fps) in simpler cartridges.
Dug deep into updating drivers and BIOS on my Dell laptop. Still nothing. This laptop is from 2012, but is more powerful than my rpi3 which has no problem with _update60.
Then, I took a look at PICO-8's own config.txt file and found fullscreen_method. Tried method 2, which is actual fullscreen rather than stretching a window.
Totally resolved the issue.
How come 2 is not the default? Or maybe it is in fact the default and I'm forgetting having toyed with this months ago.

Hi! Folks. Here's my submission for 7DRL 2019.
It's a turn-based survival game, in which you play as a mountaineer trying to reach 7000m with limited supply. For now we basically have only one type of room.

Hi all, first time posting on here (my pico-8 interactions have all previously been on Twitter). This is the first game I've actually "finished" making since 2-player 1-on-1 top-down shooter "Reservoir Fish" in 1995. That was written in AMOS Pro on an Amiga 1200, and only ever existed on a single 3.5" floppy disk which has probably long-since perished.
Here I've attempted to create a historically-accurate simulation of the D-Day Normandy landings. Naturally, the game is completed once you have defeated Hitler. Don't anger him by killing his friends, though! He can sure fire a lot of grenades.
If you fail, Hitler gets to keep France, and that is not very good.

It's an educational game about sexism in public space. Be free to use it in class, feminist festival or everywhere it can be useful.
The original version is here (in french) : https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=31155
This is the english version of a french game which won 4 P8 AWARDS 2018:
"Underrated" Award / "Out of the Box" Award / "Ephemeral" Award / "Novella" Award.

Another 1-hour game, with the theme of "small". Use the arrow keys to escape to the bottom of the screen, as many times as you can!
