Hi
I was looking around to see if I could use the notifications that pop-up in my game.
I was unable to find anything.
Example: "high scores cleared", "game saved", ...
Does anyone know if this is achievable? And do you care to share? :)
thanks in advance

Robbo is a classic arcade game released for the Atari XL/XE computers in 1989 by the Polish studio LK Avalon. The game was designed by Janusz Pelc, and the gameplay is focused on solving puzzles and using logic to find the best path through each level. The game was praised for their unique and appealing design, and remains a beloved classic that has been ported to many other systems over the years. I believe that every platform deserves a port of this game, and a few weeks ago I realized that there is no port for the Pico-8.
I ported the full original version of the game, consisting of all 56 levels. I tried to keep the resemblance to the original version as close as possible. This was quite difficult with the lower resolution, different pixel proportions and square screen, but my advantage was the higher number of colors - 16. I also added some title music, there was none in the original version. It took me a few weeks, and I'm quite pleased with the result.

Space Game
a continuation of this project but with actual gameplay
Use arrow keys to turn and move, z to explode (currently just to test the feature, will be removed later)
The Idea
A game that mixes many popular space games, with movement similar to Asteroids, space fights like Galaga, and maybe more in the future. There will be an element of upgrading your spaceship and a currency and whatnot as well.
Current Features
- Parallax background effect
- Goodish movement
- Cool particles
- Runs at 60fps
Planned Features
- Asteroids / Asteroid mining
- Space Pirates
- Space Stations

Feature Overview
Capture the string for "One-off character" used in P8SCII from the sprite sheet and copy it to the clipboard.
- Simply print() the copied string to draw an image like spr().
- No decoder implementation is required.
!! Uses mouse control which does not work with BBS.
Please download and use it. !!
Type on your console
> load #p8ooccapture |
Note: Turn on "PUNY FONT MODE" when pasting into the code.
Depending on the character, sound may be made or the display of raw characters may be corrupted.
I have made one in the past with fillp and rectfill for equivalent purposes(FILLPatDraw), and I believe P8OOCPrint will be lighter and faster performing than this.

At the command of the Airwolf, you must rescue a prisoner scientist in an underground complex.
Your time is running out.
Destroy the buttons to open the path.
- cursor keys to move
- z to fire (w on ascii)
About the game:
This game is inspired by the amstrad airwolf game released in 1985.
At that time I was a kid and I expected a lot from this license.
Unfortunately, the game was far too difficult.
A legend even said that the destruction of the last switch of level 1, crashed the game and prohibited going to the next levels. No one had ever seen level 2.
Last year, I thought about it and said to myself: this mystery must be solved.
So I completely reversed the assembly code of the game.
In doing so, I noticed that the crash of the last one came from an infinite loop which seemed voluntary.
There is only one level and no code to handle the end.
Everything in the sources suggests that the game was released too quickly and not finished.
When you spend hours studying someone else's code, you end up bonding with their ghost.
Since then I have the impression of guessing what the author (Richard Chappels) wanted to do at the time.
So, I wanted to push the concept to the end.
Here is the airwolf game of my childhood; rewritten to follow through on its original concept.

As the old saying goes: the road to hell is paved with robots and spikes and stuff. And, to Boomerang Betty, that sounds like her kind of fun! Armed with her ancient magic boomerang, she's off to adventure. Guide her through 8 intense platforming levels, filled with traps, pits, and all kinds of hazards.
Boomerang Betty is side-scrolling platformer, where you jump, run, and throw a boomerang with teleportation powers.

Today is 3/14 (In America, sorry everyone [?] else). This is Pi day.
I present a "fun" program that kinda calculates an approximation for Pi. It uses a Monte Carlo method, which isn't exact, but can get close over time. Being in PICO-8, it can't run for very long before running out of memory, but it still kinda works.
For more on Monte Carlo methods, I adapted mine from this Wikipedia page
fun fact: If you edit the program to have the line srand(314) toward the top, it will get 3.1416, the closest you can get to Pi with only 4 decimal places (It would be 3.1415, but the next digit is 9, so rounded, it's closer).

Get as many blue detonators as you can.
Get the + for more weapon
Controls
Single Stick:
Arrow keys / d-pad to move
Z / 🅾️ to shoot
X / ❎ to toggle direction lock
Dual Stick Sort Of:
Arrow keys / d-pad to move
S, E, D, F to shoot
(we're cheating by using the 2-player controls because I honestly thought I would be satisfied with single stick, but here we are)
P: Pause Menu
From the pause menu you can swap move/shoot keys and turn on "autopause" for a more turn-based experience.
Made for 7 Day Roguelike Challenge 2023.

My first try at making a genetic algorithm, I will use it as the base for other projects.
I recommend using the black and white filter in the accessibility settings, since the values are based on the darkness of the color, darker to clearer as values become larger.
