Another little game for the four-year-old, who is unaccountably into bin lorries. Seriously, once a relative came round with a present for him and they were all like, 'sorry, I wanted to get like a fire engine or something but they only had this dustbin lorry, I'm sorry, I'll take it back' and it was, reasonably enough I suppose, quite hard to explain to them that no, this is exactly what he wants, this is better than a fire engine.
Anyway.
Drive the bin lorry to the bins, get out (with O) and pick up the bin (with O), then walk it back to the truck, put it in the truck (with O), get back in the triuck (with O) and keep going. There are 30 bins, get them all emptied into the truck as fast as you can.

Just a color spiral thing I thought was cool, and wanted to share with friends! 😅
rev01:(updated, cleaned up the code a bit, and added psychedelic mode 😆)
rev02:(...we don't talk about rev02)
rev03:(was playing around with some prameters and thought the effects were interesting, so added a system to where the user can play with them themselves! param numbers are in the bottom-left, scroll through them with left and right, multiply / divide by two with up and down.)

Pling Plong Galaxy!
A Revolutionary Spin on Classic Arcade Gaming!
Dive into an electrifying reimagining of the iconic brick-busting genre. In Pling Plong Galaxy!, you're not just moving side to side - you're in full 360-degree control! Steer your ship in a continuous loop, keeping the ball bouncing and smashing bricks, but always stay alert; one wrong move, and it's game over. Combining classic nostalgia with a fresh twist, this game offers endless excitement.
Do you have the reflexes to master the circle?

Working with the music editor. Made a little chiptune demo program.
X and O will play drums, bass and snare
Left and Right will move the dancing man.

I found a simple way to use printh on Windows without any setup by using Terminal in VSCode.
Using Lnk file
- Drag and drop the lnk of PICO-8 into VSCode Terminal;
- Press Enter to run it;
- Use
printhin PICO-8!
Now printh will output its info to VSCode Terminal.
Using p8 file in VSCode
And if you set pico-8.exe as the default program to open your p8 file, you can just drag and drop your p8 file in the VSCode to Terminal. It will open PICO-8 and load the cart and printh still works.
Another way by editing lnk file: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=42367

Controls:
Use the arrows to move. You can use O/X to move the player left or right.
On the keyboard, Z/X corresponds to O/X in the game.
How to play:
Your main task is to reach the exit which is shown in green. The starting position is in red, and yellow is the teleport that teleports you to the gray color. Watch out for obstacles that are active when fully exposed, only then can they kill you. When you die, you return to the starting location.
In "Timer" mode, your task is to get the highest score possible. Finishing rooms and collecting coins gives you points, while dying from obstacles takes them away. Finishing rooms also gives you 5 seconds to the timer.

Z/O in the menu to select the chosen flavour from the menu
SINE SURF
SINE SURF is a Bullet heck-ish type of game where you play as a pair of eyeballs stuck on a rapidly moving sine wave dodging flying hands who are very eager to poke you in the eyes.
The goal of the game is to survive for as long as possible by avoiding the hands while trying to keep up with the sine wave so that you don't get eaten alive. Try to survive as long as possible so you can get the highest score and unlock new flavours along the way. Beware, for the longer you survive, the more frequently the hands begin to appear.

Total Planetary Destruction
06 September Edit:
- Fixed some bugs
- Added label name and author (which I forgot to include oops)
This game was my entry into the 'PICO-1K Jam 2023'
The aim of the jam is to create a game in under 1,024 compressed bytes. I managed to get it done, with 11 bytes to spare! Definitely cut it close.
Happy planet hunting!

I'm seeing an issue on mobile (Android) when trying to play any cart.
Once ran, the top buttons for fullscreen, mute, etc disappear. I can no longer toggle fullscreen to play on my device.
I have just noticed that this happens when you are logged in. If I log out from the bbs and try to run a cart, the buttons show up again :O
(tested on Android with Chrome and Firefox).
Does anyone know a workaround for this? Or is this a known bug? (couldn't find anything by searching the bbs)

This is a modified version of this cart: DVD Logo Screensaver by Discoh. I modified it by using the PICO-8 logo and making the collisions work across the entire screen. Nothing special happens if it hits the corner.

When you have a creature that reproduces, and this reproduction is imperfect, then you have the necessary ingredients for evolution.
This simple simulation shows evolutionary mechanics occurring in a virtual petri dish.
Each "individual" has a single gene, that determines its color and its reproduction probability. When an individual reproduces, there is a small chance that its offspring will mutate, earning a smaller or higher value of the gene.
Over time, individuals with higher reproduction probability will slowly dominate the petri dish over their slower neighbors.
Inspired by Avida-ED
I still want to improve things a little bit. Give the creatures more visual variety, and add some more audio-visual juice. Suggestions / comments / hacks welcome!

Lidar devlog/update #2
Sorry i was gone for so long, but im back now!
Here is another update for my lidar game!
In my last post i promised some puzzle mechanics, so ill reveal them one by one. the first mechanic is in some levels you can find a green tile, that when stepped on it removes red spaces from the map! this can make for some interesting level design where you have to find a switch to progress into a previously blocked-off area. click the link below to see a video showcasing this feature. (also im using twitter for videos because i cant put a .mp4 in a bbs post)
