Platformer base. I'll do something with this later.

So this is the reason I've been wanting to make a new post for a couple of days

One of my favorite coffee shops / board game stores within walking distance of my place has had this hanging on the wall for a while and every time I saw it it gave me a really strong Pico 8 vibe, a few months back I met up with some family there and I guess they caught me staring at the poster because a few weeks ago it was given to me as a late birthday present which rocks because i was a bit bummed that i didnt grab it earlier or figure out who the artist was

i know its not actually an ad poster but its pretty close. i may have to buy a pico8 logo sticker to apply to the outside of the frame

edit: if the author is a user here speak up, if not il post the artists info next time im in the shop and can ask "who did it" so credit can be applied

Another edit: it just says video game if anyone was wondering

Hi, I haven't been on here in a long while, but I do own a copy of Pico 8, and even have a game WIP (That I never finished) and when I finally logged back in to give Pico another shot it seems I can't download any version of Pico 8. Can someone explain whats going on, and maybe fix it if it's a bug?

I'm just posting the first cartridge I was able to finish.

This is a tutorial by @ztiromoritz and can be found here: https://ztiromoritz.github.io/pico-8-shooter/#

I started coding and picked up Lua like 20 days ago and also found out about Pico-8. I did some other tutorials and I've been reading about coding and all that, but this one is important to me since it was the first tutorial that I could actually understand what I was copying from the tutorial to Pico-8!

-- what I added

1. Multiple enemies
2. Multiple levels
3. An ending

After finishing it, I added some extra features that I could code - after a lot of trial and error lol.

-- stuff that I ended up not adding because I don't know how to:

So here comes the second tutorial from Dylan Bennett's "Game Development with PICO-8". I would love to come back to this and add some animations.

Next Project will be the breakout-tutorial by lazy game dev on youtube.

After a week of programming I'm happy to release Mars Defender.

It's my first game for PICO 8.

5 waves of attack will keep you occupied for about 10-15 minutes.

Your mission: Destroy all the aliens and save your men.

Keyboard controls:

Start game with x

Navigate ship with cursor keys.

x = fire
z = Go to intro page after game over.

Or use our favorite controller.

Enjoy!

Controls:
up = cursor up
play again = X

I made this as my first project after the tutorial by Dylan Bennett in "Game Development with PICO-8".

Just changed the sprites and colors for now.

Does anyone know how to change the keyboard bindings in the HTML export?

I want to change the default key controls so that the keys are more natural for my game than the defaults for one and two-player play. Is that supported? In which file are the key bindings specified?

Second pico-8 project, this unfinished/abandoned gameplay clone of "copycat" by terry cavanagh (distractionware.com)

Unfinished because the cart's design is just too stupid and any sort of effort to fix things via contrived hack solutions would be wasted compared to just starting fresh.

One day i want to make a "replic8r 1" from the ground up that is actually good, but in the meantime, figured if I'm done with this i might as well post it even if it's broken.

if you enjoyed the gameplay you should check out the original, and maybe even make your own take on it.

I challenged myself to complete a creative project every week for the rest of 2022, and this week was Pico-8.

For this week I decided to tackle a favorite infinite waves-of-enemies survival title from my childhood. It is my take on Worm Whomper by Tom Loughry on the Intellivision. I have included an Intellivision mode that gets a bit closer to the classic graphics.

Gameplay

Defend your corn from an onslaught of hungry pests!

Controls

• Move with direction keys
• Z for plow ball
• X to shoot

If you lose your gun grab a new one from the barn.

I am not a game artist, musician, or developer. As such, the code in this game is filled with redundancies, magic numbers, and is wildly optimized. I have a lot to do, but it is (mostly) playable for the limited effort I was able to put in while simultaneously trying to learn all the things. I had a blast getting this far, I learned a ton and can't wait to revisit Pico-8 in an upcoming week.
