Grave Defence is tower defence game, in which you control a ghost tasked with defending the souls resting in a mausoleum from the incoming hordes of skeletons!
Controls
- Arrow keys to move the character
- X key to place and pickup torches
- O key to toggle flame aura indicators
Rules
Torches must be powered by near by Power Flames. Once powered they will shoot enemies within range.
Shooting torches will consume the energy of the flames they are linked to.
Power Flames can die out if over tapped so keep an eye out for their size.
However, Flames will recharge over time unless fully extinguished.
Torches can be relocated; the mausoleum must be protected and you will need to move around the map to do so!

Gruniożerca
Controls
Use the arrows to run the guinea pigs, which catch vegetables in a rush. Press X to change the guinea pig to the right one.
Rules
Grunio (dark) and Dida (light) love to munch vegetables. But Grunio prefers carrots and Dida prefers parsley. Crunch the vegetables falling from the sky keeping in mind the guinea pigs' preferences and making sure the vegetables don't fall to the ground.
Behind the scenes
Gruniożerca is a series of games started in 2016 by Luke "dizzy9" Kura. At the time, he created a small arcade game for the NES/Pegasus console and donated its cartridges to the arhn.eu website's Gramytatywnie charity campaign. Starring: Grunio, the guinea pig™, the site's mascot. Grunio has become a small internet phenomenon and has lived to see two (internationally award-winning, seriously!) sequels in recent years. In 2017, Dizzy agreed to release the source code for the first part of the game online. That one is available here. With its simple gameplay and adorable mascot, Gruniozer has become a well-liked "entry-level project" for novice developers, and the task of porting it to all possible platforms a small challenge for homebrew developers.

Read all steps before proceeding with the installation. Feedback is appreciated!
- If you want to avoid the headache of Step 4, I recommend using a Pi or other Linux computer to write the installation image to the SD card! It can be the same Pi you use for the Lite installation, you just need to switch SD cards to change OSs.
Hello everyone,
I haven't seen any tutorials for doing exactly this so I thought it would be helpful if there was a guide for anyone who specifically just wants a little portable machine that launches PICO-8 after booting, and without using Retropie or a desktop environment. This installation won't have a super fast boot like PICOPi (https://github.com/keints/picopi) but it will have online functionality and will be a great starting point for a physical fantasy console project.
The whole process takes about 45 minutes to complete
Things you will need:
- The latest PICO-8 for Raspberry Pi zip: https://www.lexaloffle.com/games.php?page=updates
- Raspberry Pi (any model) setup with a display and keyboard

NOTE: This is an early version of the game created for playtesting purposes. There's no sound effects or music yet, but planning to add them later. The name of the game is temporary.
Poor Goat was very unlucky to fall and land on the top of a haunted tower. A tower that will try to kill her with all its means.
Help Goat to survive by charging rocks and trees and dodging dangerous spiky trees and fire balls. Watch out for Goat's stamina level (pink top bar) as she runs out of energy quickly. Recharge her batteries by picking up stamina balls. Use super power when you're in trouble or run out of energy. Can you get to the end?
Controls
- Arrow keys: move & charge objects
- X: use super power / confirm

This PICO-8 chiptune was composed for the 2024 PICO-8 Free Music Jam. It uses three channels - bass and bass percussion on channel 0, melody and mid percussion on channel 1, and high percussion on channel 2 - and requires 16 SFX and 24 music patterns, no custom SFX instruments. The full loop is approximately 1 minute 16 seconds long. You can probably interrupt the high percussion on channel 2 if you need a second channel for sound effects.

Dear users,
I've watch tutorials about creating a selfcontained PICO-8 desktop by using raspberry pi zero and raspberry pi 3. :-) I've tried to use the same procedure on my raspberry pi zero 2 W, but it won't work. And since I haven't succeeded to find tutorials about that subject by using a raspberry pi zero 2 W, I hope some of U can help.
-Does anyone have any suggesting how to make it work on a raspberry pi zero 2 W?
Kind regards
Johnny

Controls
Arrow keys and C.

Inspired by the coding train video where he makes a falling sand game in JS. https://youtu.be/L4u7Zy_b868?si=YdIuL0No-k8LfCeD
It was fun to try my hand at it. I didn't include everything he did due to the processing limitation of the pico 8. But you can edit the code to change the size of the sand.

Hi, I bought PICO-8 a month ago and started working on this first project.This is terrible so far, but I'm exhausted and don't have the energy to continue. But I decided to share what I've been working on so far.
For the time being, I would like to study PICO-8 and Lua. And then I would like to continue this project or start something new.
I hope to make a decent shmup someday.

Full release, featuring Split functionality.
I intend to do bugfixes and maybe add sounds later.
Added "Shiva Mode": on title screen hold down+A to start game in "Shiva Mode", which gives you ability to split even if cards don't match.
