Hello,

I am new here. Not sure I should post here.
I am trying to get an invite to slack but when submitting my email I get "Hmm.. Sorry, something went wrong." error.

Can anyone help?

Thank you

How do you get the mouse x and y based on world space ?

Hi all, just a quick noob question. I'm struggling with making two objects (asteroids in this case) coming down a trajectory on x,y and colliding, deflect each other a little more realistically (but without having to implement a physics engine!). I don't have the maths skills as of yet, I'm guessing something to do with angles/trigonometry?

At the moment I'm basically forcing the leftmost asteroid to the left and the rightmost object to the right, but 90% of times this just looks very unnatural.

Would someone kindly point me some resource I could check up on/read/watch on how to approach this? I don't have the smarts to figure it out on my own, but will be more than ok researching it on my own - just need to be pointed in the right direction. Any tips or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Pedro.

With the theme of this jam being "Roll the dice", I made a game where you set your team up and roll the dice on who attacks. There are different effects that interact with each other and I am still working on the game! After years of saying that I wanted to join the game jam, I am making my first game!

I haven’t had the time to make a proper tutorial, but here is a little explanation. At the beginning, you choose three heroes you want to bring to the battle. Afterwards, you can press x to “roll the dice” and a random hero will attack. Each hero can have attributes. There's: Lighting (battery icon), explosion (bomb icon), nature (leaf icon) and fire (fire icon). Lighting does 2 damage to lighting, explosion does 1 damage to all the opponent, nature heals everyone 1 hp, and fire does 2 damage to nature. I still want to keep working on it and improve and add stuff to it. If you have tips and recommendations, tell me!

this is that but I didn't use a tutorial.

My first ever game which isn't just a tutorial, and my second total.

Hope it brightens your minute

What are everyone's favorite development environments for working with Pico8? What are its pros/cons?

Personally, I enjoy the built-in editor. I always launch from the command prompt to make use of the printh() debugging features.

But I've also messed around with using visual studio code and had a good time there.

Aw man, I'm so sorry, I feel really silly... How on earth do you generate a random bool? I can't find any way to cast an int into a bool, so I'm down to doing the sort of stuff below:

randbool=flr(rnd(2))
if randbool==0 then randbool=false else randbool=true end

This feels really dirty and silly. What's the established way of doing this please? And apologies in advance.

Thanks,

Pedro.

A fun little project trying to replicate a tamagoshi like game, now in english!

I've been drawing for 8 months every single day. and I really like Pico 8, so I thought I can mix two and two together . my profile drawing was made 4 months ago so my art skills have been going up from there. I'm not the best at pixel art but I can try. thx for reading.

hi guys >:)

ive loved pico 8 the whole year, but now that schools over, i dont feel like playing as often. ill come in time to time, but i will probably not be playing at all anymore. i will never forget all of the amazing games created by all of you, but im afraid its my time to go. love you all, Jaeson Pickens.
