Not sure if anyone's done this before, but I created code to use the tile-sheet as a font. This allows you to use multi-colored fonts inside your cart.
This works for all ASCII characters (except for tab and new-line).

My two-week trip is coming to an end. While I was in my hotel room, I worked on this small puzzle game. There are still many things to do (including adding more girls, of course. It will allow for about 4 - 5 additional images).

PICOhaven 2 is a card-based tactical RPG / dungeon crawler inspired by my love of the board game Gloomhaven* (and less directly, of other 2D tactical turn-based games such as the GBA Fire Emblem and Into The Breach), and a sequel to PICOhaven from 2021.
It adopts a modified & simplified version of the mechanics from that board game, both to streamline solo play and to fit the platform constraints. It includes a campaign with 21 scenarios, 9 character levels with multiple upgrade paths, and various items that further modify gameplay and strategy.
*Note: This is just a free, solo-fan-made project and has no affiliation with Gloomhaven. If you like this type of game I recommend checking out the Gloomhaven family of board games for a lot of fun from multi-character cooperative play!

thanks @jasondelaat !
is there a way i can produce a sine wave effect (not unlike celeste classic 2) but in any direction?
and in a line-like function? such as
rotated_sine_wave(x, y, direction, length, amp, wavelength, c)

controls
arrow key left and right = move
x = shoot/select
o = fire special weapon/re-roll shop
arrow key up and down = adjust turret shot angle
*requires owning the upgrade from the store.
Eyevasion is my first Pico-8 project, but it certainly won't be my last. If you really enjoyed this game and want to help fund the coffee supply for the next one, you can hit the donate button over on my itch.io page, or just share this with a friend who might enjoy it too.
A massive shout-out to LazyDevs who inspired this game and helped me get this far, and to everyone in the Pico-8 community who play-tested and gave feedback - you're all awesome!
Thank you for taking the time to play my game

An homage to the Commodore 64 Wheel of Fortune game. In keeping with the C64 era, the included puzzles are 80's themed.

Here is our game we made in 1 week and a half.
MARBLE MERGER
Seems like everybody's making a clone of Suika Game these days - here's mine!
Instructions
Drop marbles into the container - if two marbles of the same size touch each other, then they merge together to form a single larger marble, and you get some points (larger merges have larger value). If a marble comes to rest while going past the top of the container, you lose!
It's an endless game, so post your high scores in the comments!
Extra Thoughts
My main goal here was to make this version of the game look and feel as smooth as I could manage. The three features which are most relevant to that goal are:
- 60 FPS

Hello, this is my first Pico-8 game, and this is still an early version, but everything is fully functional.
It's a Vampire Survivor clone.
You can level up, collect XP, increase your character stats, and more.
There is a pause menu with your stats, a nice level-up screen, and high-score tracking.
I want to add a ton of more stuff, like new maps and weapons, etc... but I could not wait to show it off and have it on Splore!
My goal is to create a game as much as it is to write clean code and understand pico-8 / gamedev principle. So it's also very readable and OOP-oriented if you're interested in looking at it.
v 0.3.5 update:
- Add boss every 30 kills spawn chest, which auto level you up.

Idk if it's stupid to share with dreams but I had a dream about PICO-8 being updated.
The website and the editor had black, white and yellow colors. The layouts also were confusing. There also were no sprites pages.
Here's the website and the editor drawn from memory

A bare-bones implementation of a pressure softbody using verlet intergration, loosely based on Maciej Matyka's tutorial paper.
I've played around with making pressure softbodies in other game engines, so I thought it would be great for my first pico-8 project. Overall it turned fairly stabled and optimized, and I'm quite happy with the result.
Use left and right to change the pressure, and up and down to change gravity.
Move the mouse while holding a mouse button to push the softbody around.

Hi all, and welcome to my first ever Pico-8 game posted on Lexaloffle!
About
Roids of the Aster Kind is a clone of my fave retro shooter, Asteroids. It includes all the classic features such as splitting asteroids, UFOs and the dreaded hyperspace key which usually materialises you directly in the path of an asteroid!
Controls
- Left/Right : Rotate ship
- Up : Thrust
- Button 1 : Fire
- Button 2 : Hyperspace
Dev Notes
I've actually owned Pico-8 for a while now, and had written a couple of games before which I never got round to publishing anywhere. But then my old laptop died and I sadly lost those games, so this time I was determined to upload my game for posterity.
