@zep, could you PLEASE remove or give an option to remove the warning message that appears only in this newest 0.2.4 version of Pico-8 that states the following everytime I boot or type REBOOT:

WARNING: RUNNING BELOW 30FPS

Remember we can always press CTRL+P during runtime to see if frames-per-second is lagging in our code.

Thank you.

Stack boxes
Aim for the gates
The higher the better!

This is my first pico-8 game
It is inspired by a game I played ten years ago called folder by @Morusque(I can't find a working version anymore).

A game where you fly around and collect planets (and comets, if you can catch them). My target audience is mostly my 3-year old son, who also liked the original Evan the Astronaut. This cart started from the Stars & Space tutorial by Liquidream.

Originally the controls were relative (left/right buttons to turn, like Asteroids), but my son had trouble figuring that out. I switched to cardinal directions by default. I find the latter more intuitive on a controller, but prefer the relative controls on keyboard. It can be changed in the options.

I made this experiment back in 2020 and I finally decided to polish it up a bit and release it. Contains:

-Speed!
-Momentum!
-Horizontally looping level
-Loops!
-Damage!
-Collectables!
-Music!
-Rain!

Source code should be somewhat readable. It's mostly done using the Sonic Physics Guide as a reference. http://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_Physics_Guide

So I'm reading the docs about pico-8's memory space.

https://pico-8.fandom.com/wiki/Memory

Am I reading this right and the game code is not in addressable space? I wanted to "read" the program code at runtime using peek(...) is there any way to do this?

There's a section on that page talking about Lua memory, and separate from the pico-8 memory space. The way it's described it sound like runtime memory space for variables etc. Not what I want.

Any ideas?

Mitt's Marble Adventure!

Explore the town of Townton and the surrounding area and battle EVERYBODY* in intellectual duels of marble supremacy.

*You cannot battle mom or the dog, sorry. But you can pet the dog.

This cartridge is part of the Twelve Days of Pico Christmas, our Advent Calendar project for 2021. https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=45525

Stuck? Open the spoilers for some hints:

At the start of the game, go into the house and talk to Mom. The bad guy will show up. After talking to him, talk to your little brother. After that, the path forward will open.

In the town, you need to win against each of the villagers. Once you have 5 trophies, talk to the mayor. The mayor's puzzle is one of the hardest ones in the game, but it can be done. Try clearing a path in front of the gold marble with your first shot. After winning against the mayor, you can move on into the woods in the northwest.

Very simple sprite-hack of Celeste made for my sister Payton for Christmas. Madeline has been changed a bit to look more like her and some text has been changed to mention Christmas.

All credit due go to Thorson and Berry for the original game.

Devlog

Codebase expands from Ghost Rally, no longer limited to a single dynamic/static response.
Collision hulls are limited to solid rectangles to benefit from simplified overlapping tests and clipping maths.
The whole engine could be plugged into any 3d engine if you don't mind the staggering token cost :/

The game went through multiple iterations (initial idea was a "chamboultout"), including odd things like:

What with the Christmas holidays coming up there's a good chance a bunch of you may be stuck in line in some grocery store or shopping mall so - having seen all the little paint programs rolling around, thought I would write up my own for you to test your art skills in as you're waiting to make your purchases.
