Someone randomly mentioned Minecraft on the official unofficial Discord, and with the PICO-8 Free Music Jam starting tomorrow (plug!), that inspired this chill but slightly dissonant background loop. Approximately two and a quarter minutes long, uses 00, 01, and 02 for custom SFX instruments, total of 15 SFX and 16 patterns.

My First Try - This "Game" is a Test!
After some umming and ahhing I decided to give PICO 8 a try. I've played around with the likes of Unity before, but for all intents and purposes I'm a complete noob when it comes to both coding and game dev.
The Intention
My intention here was to get familiar with PICO 8 and Lua. I spent a few weeks looking at tutorials and making up as I went along. The general plan was to create a vertical slice of a top down shooter in a similar vein to the classic VIC-20 game AMOK.
The Concept
The protagonist is able to move and shoot projectiles in 4 directions from a top down perspective.

Hi, new to PICO-8. I installed it on my Mac and it runs fine. But I downloaded some carts from Lexaloffle and when I copy the pathname to one and type "load PATHNAME" I receive the "Could not load" message. It doesn't matter which folder the cart is in and I've tried it with two carts that my friend got working. I checked that PICO-8 has read/write permissions. What could be going wrong?
Thanks

Welcome to Glark vs Gooblins! This was my first time using Pico8 and I had a blast.
Use arrow keys to move.
Use Z to swing the hammer in the direction Glark moved!
Use Z to throw the hammer, but make sure you're moving!
Use Z to catch the hammer if it's flying! Careful though!
Use X to throw bombs! Make sure you have some.
Try using the hammer to smack a bomb!
Please leave a comment if you enjoyed the game, and check out my other offerings on Itch.io!

PELOGEN2 has released!!
I previously created a 3D modeling tool called "pelogen".
It was designed to run on pico-8 with a minimum amount of data, and with its 16x16x16 vertex coordinates and one-stroke triangulation, it was almost exclusively a tool for myself.
This time, the specifications were revised from there, and the tool was created with an eye to making the data a bit larger and easier to model.
-
The vertices will be edited in such a way that triangles are added, instead of the specification of adding vertices one by one.
And we will set a color for each face.
- You can JOIN the vertices of each triangle to simplify vertex movement and build complex shapes.
- You can duplicate selected triangles and rotate or flip vertices by a limited number of angles.

❎ to select (or toggle tag)
🅾️ on tag list to ignore the tag
⬅️➡️ to swap between game list and tag list
⬆️⬇️ to go up and down (WOW, SO CREATIVE!)
I'm back with another silly game launcher. this time, I think my scope is better, and I'm only doing roguelikes. if you have ones you want to be added, just post them, along with any of the tags that apply, thanks for checking this out <3
just to be helpful, here's the games in it so far

I am trying to create a script that will run Pico-8 natively on my Anbernic RG35XX Plus.
When I try to get it to run using the pico8_dyn raspi binary I am getting the following error:
SDL Error: SDL not built with haptic (force feedback) support ** FATAL ERROR: Unable to initialize SDL |
I've been able to get it to boot, albeit without video, but this is requiring me to build my own version of SDL2, since haptic support is being required by Pico-8 and is not available in the RG35XX native SDL2 system files.
I'd like to avoid having to compile a new version of SDL2 just to "provide haptic support". Is there anything I can do do bypass this requirement in my native SDL2?
Here's my script so far:
#!/bin/bash
# Define variables
SCRIPT_DIR="$(dirname "$0")"
PICO_DIR="$SCRIPT_DIR/pico-8"
# Navigate to the script directory
cd "$SCRIPT_DIR"
# Function to check if a package is installed
is_package_installed() {
dpkg -l "$1" &> /dev/null
}
# Install dependencies if they are not already installed
if ! is_package_installed wget; then
apt-get update
apt-get install -y wget
fi
if ! is_package_installed unzip; then
apt-get update
apt-get install -y unzip
fi
# Check if PICO_DIR exists, if not, download and extract Pico-8
if

bug: roundelie can kill the player if it is against the left screen edge and the player tries to push it further. if roundelie is on that edge, try not to push it any more or else you will die.
Bugfix in progress but its complicated due to the nature of the bug.
Roundelie Rescue (READ BELOW)
Welcome to Adelie Rescue Team, or ART for short. Here at ART we make it our mission to save as many penguins in need as we can. That is why you're here! There have been reports of ice caps melting around the arctic, more specifically ones home to the rare Adelie penguin variant, "Roundelie" (scientific name "Pygoscelis adeliae Sphericallus"). Roundelie penguins are known for their mobility, or lack thereof. They cant move on their own anymore due to the climate changes in their natural habitat, and we worry they might go extinct. Thats why we called YOU here! Weve sent you to their home to rescue as many as you can. there sadly should only be four or five of them left here, but thats still more then none! good luck out there adventurer! May meep be on your side!

I made a table with some values and then printed it with the draw function but it just doesnt print anything. There is nothing that gets printed onto my screen whenever I run the game. How do i fix this? code:
star={1,2,6,10,98}
print(star[1])
