Ludum Dare 55 was last weekend and the theme was "Summoning." I didn't really plan to compete in the jam but I thought I would try my hand at making something to fit an external idea.
This is still not a game (I didn't stand a chance of getting anything done in 72hrs) but I thought I'd share what I have so far.
There are no enemies yet. Use the arrow keys to move, X to pick a summon and O to summon it for its cost. That's all there is.
I'm not sure how much farther I will continue with it. The game would probably be a survivors-type crossed with diablo-summoner-esque gameplay in which your summons do all the fighting for you, with a little bit borrowed from tower defense. Also, bouncing.

A little game for the 1-bit jam. You are a priest for the church of the goat.
Use X/Z to shoot and arrows to move. Use your spell to transform all the animals into goats, the true sacred animal.
Do it 6 times perfectly in a row to do a super spell!

hello,
So Im making a kinda rpg-topdown-engine-game-thing and I want to have the function for the player to collide with other players. so it looks like this:
But here is the problem!
You see, the player checks if the tile he is about to go to is a wall or another player, if so he goes back (doesn't move). seems ok, right?
NO
players are stored in a big table players={} and the checking process is done in a foreach loop. So when the player below moves up, he sees that there is someone above, he doesn't move, but the upper one moves. Its hard to explain look:
did you see it? when I pressed down only the bottom player moved. Because the upper one (index 1) checks first and sees that there is a player below him, no move. then the bottom one checks and moves.
How can I fix this?
If you have any questions for the code or the game feel free to ask.
Thanks for taking your time to read this :)

Just found out that the “goto” function is actually implemented in Picotron; I’ve tested a pico8 code snippet by @ultrabrite and put it into the usual function _draw()
function _draw()
cls()
x=1 y=0 n=120
::io::
d=rnd(2)>1 and 0 or 5
line(x+5-d,y,x+d,y+5,11)
x+=6
if(x>n+6) x=1 y+=6 print(' ')
if(y>n) y=n
flip()
goto io
end |

Virtual Keyboard app for Steam Deck and other touchscreen devices.
Working (albeit still WIP) as of Picotron v0.1.0e but not v0.1.0f due to changes in wm. I haven't looked into how much is different but I do know that the way I was switching workspaces is no longer exposed as an event within wm, so that kills the project dead somewhat.
I'm not upset because Picotron is in flux and it was always possible that this could happen. However I feel a virtual keyboard is a must for handheld devices in the future as Picotron is totally unusable without one. Yes, the Steam Deck has a virtual keyboard built into Steam, but hitting Return hides it, so it is impractical. Plus it doesn't have cursor keys which this did.

I've seen this behavior in both sfx.p64 and #visitrack. I'm on a M1 Macbook Pro, OS X 14.3, running Picotron 0.1.0f.
- Slow drags downward don't do anything -
mouselockjust returns 0 fordy, regardless of how far you drag. Slow drags upward do not have this problem. - Effective sensitivity is lower on Mac than on other platforms. I haven't verified this myself, but based on @drakmaniso's description of how the sliders should be acting in #visitrack, this seems to be true.
