- A complete achievement system
- Unlockable items tied to achievements
- Several battles of varying difficulty
- Six unit types

Floating island Blocks
I dont know why but I really CANT stop watching this
- One is smaller because The Cpu could not handel the houses, Trees etc..
- I like both.
- To enjoy them correctly use your eyes to watch the pixels change color.
- The smaller one has a random terrain, so reset the cart to get a new island
Thanks for checking it out :)

my first pico game
menu:
puzzle generation
gameplay
Controls
pretty straight forward, use the arrows to choose a node and X or O to rotate it
Rules
in relax mode, just choose the size of the puzzle and get to it, at your own pace, every puzzle is virtually unique so keep playing the same size if you enjoy it
for the competitive people, record mode will let you play all the puzzle sizes from smallest to largest and time you, once you finished all of them you get to save your time in the leaderboard (I managed to finish in around 350 seconds, but I think I can do better)
Behind the Scenes
runs a bfs algorithm way too many times, but it works so...
Credits
we'll get someone for the music and sound fx soon,,
based on a game I had to make for school around 4 years ago (which was based on older games),
enjoy!
A simple maze exploration game I made. The goal is to find your way out of the forest maze before time runs out.
The main purpose of this was to make some slightly more complex music, and draw slightly better cartridge art (though it's still pretty bad). I also wanted to try out a multi-screen game that used the map editor and had actual map collisions. My previous games just had the player stop once they reached a certain x value. Code is kind of messy and the collisions aren't working exactly how I want, but I'll fix that with future games. Probably.
I've got this bunch of enemies that run after the player, but i can't seem to figure how to make them collide each other since they all are in a same table.
I've managed to do it with two for loops that calls them differently, but this makes a game overload after there's more then 40 enemies spawned.
Maybe somebody could give me a hint on this one.

Press β to activate CHROMATOSIS:
An experimental bleeding-edge 5-color mode
Feel free to use/modify this effect for your projects!
a
is the starting color and b
is how many subsequent colors in the palette to use, so you can alter this to use any colors you want using pal({})
and those two variables. Note that the effect relies on not using cls()
so this would be best suited to a splash screen or menu, or for use with clip()
I've started up a new project and I'll be making extensive use of the trig-functions, so I started playing around with them. I soon found out about the input range and the inverted sin, but I still can not explain the behavior I'm seeing.
What you would expect from sin(x)cos(x) and what you can intuitively read from the graph is that first peak of sin(x)cos(x) should be negative, and the second positive. The actual behavior can be explained by the inverted sin-function, but with the inverted sin-function, I would expect the sin-graph to reflect the inversion, which it does not.
Code:
function _draw() cls() print("cos(x)",10) print("sin(x)",12) print("sin(x)*cos(x)",14) for x=1, 127 do pset(x, 64,3) pset(x, 64+32*cos(x/127),10) pset(x, 64+32*sin(x/127),12) pset(x, 64+32*sin(x/127)*cos(x/127),14) end end |
(Sorry, I don't know how to format code on the BBS)
My Lovely Wife vs. 100 Draculas
a small game by Chris 'Turd Boomerang' Armstrong
One hundred Draculas are after my lovely wife! Put your combat gardening skills to work as you behead, dismember, and devour wave after wave of undead Transylvanian counts.
Movement: P2 D-Pad (ESDF on the keyboard)
Aiming and Shooting: P1 D-Pad (Arrow Keys on the keyboard) or Mouse Left Button
Updates:
1/24/24
The latest version of "My Lovely Wife vs. 100 Draculas" adds two new menu items.
The "Swap Controllers" option was suggested and implemented by RealShadowCaster. You can now swap the movement and shooting control inputs - allowing you to move with the arrow keys and shoot with ESDF if that feels more comfortable.
"Distant Galaxy" catapults players back to the golden era of arcade gaming, rekindling the nostalgia of classics like Galaga and Space Invaders. Embark on a cosmic journey as a fearless fighter pilot, armed with powerful missiles and a heart full of courage (5 heart-fulls to be exact!). Prepare to traverse the uncharted realms of the universe, where the stars twinkle in 8-bit brilliance and the galaxies hum with an energetic chip-tune soundtrack.
In Distant Galaxy, you'll face off against legions of adorable yet menacing alien hordes as you bob and weave through the chaos of their attacks. But beware – the universe is not all fun and games. Encounter disgusting mini-bosses and colossal cyclops commanders, and put your reflexes to the test as you navigate the cosmic battlefield. So, gear up, pilot – the universe awaits your pixelated heroics in this heart-pounding, eye-catching, and downright fun blast from the past!
Backdrop is a match-3 style puzzle game which emphasizes thoughtful moves. There is no timer, and you can plan your moves at your own leisure.
The Goal
The goal is to clear the vexed blocks - the ones with the bothered border. You can't interact with vexed blocks directly, so they must be cleared by other means.
The Rules
There are four colors. Each block has an back and center color. Your cursor has a color as well.
Move your cursor with the directional buttons. Press the X/O action buttons to swap your cursor color with the selected block's back or center color, respectively.
