feature request: a keyboard shortcut to switch tabs/pages of the sprite editor. Something like a Page Up/Down.

(if this already exists, someone please let me know!)

holding W technically works but it takes foreverrrr :)

edit: WHOAA I just discovered you can hold Shift + Q/W to go up/down which is a much better workaround! Still I think if there are tabs which are selectable via mouse, they should also be selectable via keyboard somehow.

is there a build in function that rotates a drawn tile by 90 degrees for the 4 possible values of 0,1,2 and 3?

My first "game" using Pico, I'm having a lot of fun so far!

Also, if someone could explain why the walls jump like that it'd be fantastic. I followed the Gamedev With Pico-8 tutorial PDF exactly (I thought) but it doesn't seem to be deleting/creating the walls correctly or in the right order

This is a simple game for a presentation that I will give at Knoxville Game Design to demonstrate the basic structure of a Pico-8 program.

The core of this game was written on a BoltBus from Portland to Seattle last fall, and I've been tinkering with it ever since. Time to call it done - especially since I've got another bus trip coming up soon! 🤔

This is also the first time I've tried my hand at a boss fight. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

The Antagonists' Bar Brawl

My first non-tutorial-guided game. After a fun night of D&D I woke up with inspiration to make this. Was done over a single weekend.

Although it's possible to get 10+ bots in the arena, it'll generally demonstrate how poorly coded physics can make the console suffer, haha.

Controls

• ARROWS = Player 1 move
• X = Player 1 Shoot
• ESDF = Player 2 Move
• Q = Player 2 Shoot

While making this, I had a newfound appreciation for PICO-8: I was running into the same problems regarding multiple player collisions that I would have with every other game engine (The one coming to mind being Unity). Hopefully I'll remember the lessons I'd learned on future games.

This is a breakout clone I made following the amazing tutorials available here:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLea8cjCua_P0qjjiG8G5FBgqwpqMU7rBk

Thanks to Krystman and Lazydevs for creating the series and allowing me to make my first game in Pico-8.

HOW TO PLAY:

• Arrow keys Left/Right to move the pad, X to release the ball
• Enter to pause the game
• Clear all bricks to advance to the next stage
• Change the direction/angle of the ball using the pad

I'm loving coroutines -- they make it so easy to write complex animations and user interactions. But without error stacktraces, debugging them is a nightmare. What's the plan around this? Can we expect a new version of Pico-8 with better error reporting from coroutines?

Hello! I decided to remake Celeste's feather minigame from the chapter Golden Ridge. I found it as a good coping mechanism for anxiety, but I struggled to do it without a visual aid, so I made this game. I tried my best not only to recreate the minigame, but also to make a shortened PICO-8 version of "Postcard From Celeste Mountain" by Lena Raine!

I'll gladly take any feedback :)

I don't know if this is just a quirk of how print does its job, but I've found that print statements with strings that begin with a "\n" newline character get cut off in the middle of the line.

In this image, the lines who are cut off are formatted with a \n at the beginning
print("\nthird")

print("\nfourth")

print("\nfifth")

I'm in a bit of a hurry, will update with more later.

Couldn't find any info on this but when I launch pico-8 on Raspbery Pi 4 I get this error.

pi@raspberrypi:~/pico-8 $ sudo ./pico8
./pico8: error while loading shared libraries: libsndio.so.6.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Raspbian Version Info:
Version:June 2019
Release date:2019-06-20
Kernel version:4.19

I wasn't totally surprised it didn't launch as I think there is new version of Raspbian for RPI4 so there could be issues.

I tried running it on a Pi2 (I think it was) that I had and it launched fine there so this isn't necessarily a problem that I need a solution for (as I can probably just use the much slower 2 for a bit), though it would be nice to know if there was an easy fix. I'm mostly reporting it just because I came across it and didn't see it reported.
