PicoMotos v.0.1 Demo
This is an early version of a small game I worked on in September, taking advantage of the few days of the paternity leave. I'm wrapping up a few things, so I decided to put it here as a WIP, although I'm not sure I will move forward.
I tried it with a joypad and the playability is better, playing with the keys might be a little challenging even with the many power-ups frequently spawned.
If somebody tries it I would love to hear some advice!

development log
i started when i got a YouTube recommendation of the 'it is a mystery' meme.
it took me three attempts in 2 weeks (with breaks) to finish this cartridge
most of the 2 weeks were forced breaks, because i had a lot of school work before winter holidays began.

MIGHT CAUSE EPILEPTIC SEIZURES
This is similar to my first demo effect but this time it's in color

Just updated to v0.2.5e, and found that it breaks a number of my tweetcarts.
The issue specifically seems to be that this shortcut is no longer supported:
if(...)do --thing1 --thing2 --etc. end |
Now to make things work, I have to replace the "do" with "then". Not a huge change, but it does require a couple more characters, and every one counts when dealing with strict character limits.

Controls:
Hold X to make a snowball. You have to hold until you hear a little dinging sound
Press Z to throw

I know a lot of people have posted functions for drawing cubic bezier curves, but I'm tossing my own into the pot because why not. Just skimming threads, it feels like most people use pset() to draw them pixel by pixel; this one uses line() to draw them segment by segment.
Some animated gifs, because they're fun:
To save you digging into the cart, here's the two versions of the algorithm I'd recommend, based on my testing. If you want to see how fast they run, there's a pause menu item in the code that draws sets of 5000 random bezier curves with a bunch of different algorithm parameters in two sizes - 16-pixel square bounding box and 128-pixel square bounding box - and adds up the total CPU needed at 60 FPS.

Something is awry at December Village.. Everyone is unhappy; Record time blues!
It's up to Deci to run around and use her boombox to cheer everyone up!
Talk to villagers and find songs to play, Or just take a nap that's fine too.
Kinda a mess and experimental but hope it's chill. Happy holidays!
Made for advent calendar 2022

A little holiday puzzle game!
It was kinda rushed in 1.5 weeks to be done before christmas, so it may have some bugs...
I think perhaps I could have developed some ideas and made some more advanced complex puzzles, but that will be for a possible sequel or update.
Hope you enjoy anyway! Happy holidays!

The other day I pasted together a mockup to see what Picotron could look like on a 4:3 CRT monitor, see photos below.
I noticed the display spec for Picotron says 480x270. @zep, Have you considered allowing other video modes, like 320x240?

Hi! You want to draw pixel art? You like puzzle games? You can't wait for Christmas? Well the game's for you! Solve puzzles by following clues on grids to draw pixel art that'll turn onto Xmas-themed patterns. Each solved pattern is saved and retrieved in following sessions.
Xmas Patterns is part of the Twelve Days of PICO-8 Christmas 2022 you'll find there: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=50644
The game lacks a proper ending and some other bits I'm probably the only one to know. Despite two months of work the game's never looked like it wanted to be finished. It's sorry about that and hopes you'll like it nonetheless.
