Instructions

This is very much a developer tool and not optimized for ease of use!! However, these are the controls...

Number keys 1,2,3,4,5,6: Change tile groups. 1 = basic blocks, 2 = ramps, 3 = rails, 4 = quarter pipes, 5 = special objects, 6 = floor decorations

LEFT CLICK to place a tile
RIGHT CLICK to switch tiles within the current tile group
SCROLL WHEEL = change tile height
Q = rotate a tile
D = delete a tile
E = switch from edit to play mode, or vice-versa
S = save the level file to YOUR CLIPBOARD (web version requires you to also press ctrl-C afterwards), then please don't forget to paste it somewhere like a notepad document if you want to save it permanently

Hello there, fellow gamer! Thank you for coming to try out my first official Pico-8 release. Picout is reminiscent of the old-school Breakout game, but a little more fast-paced and with a colorful, modern twist.

Controls

Left/Right - move paddle
X button/keyboard X - continue
O button/keyboard C - activate magnet

Tips

The magnet is most powerful when positioned directly under the ball. Use it to squeeze the ball into a tight space, or to drag the ball down into a cluster of bricks.

Go for the gold! The more bricks you break before the ball hits your paddle, the more points you'll earn for each brick. Legend says if you get 15 or more in a row, something explosive could happen...

Is it possible to fill in vector graphics?

Is there a way to fill in something like this bird shape?
It is currently drawn using line().

CONTROLS

Left/Right: Turn

X: Ollie. Hold to accelerate, release to ollie (jump)

Down: Slow down

Up: Hold to transfer over a quarter-pipe. (In rare cases, you can also use it to accelerate but not prepare an ollie)

Z/C: Trick. Press to grind a rail or ledge, use directional keys to do various tricks! See this trick list at any time in the menu during gameplay.

There are more tricks than this... can you find them all?

HOW TO PLAY

If you've played the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series then you'll already know what to do - choose a level in the menu and try to complete all the goals! The goals are about getting a certain score, or getting a certain score in a short combo, or doing a certain trick over a gap.

Hold X to accelerate and then release it to Ollie. Use the "O" key (usually Z or C on a keyboard) to do tricks. Try pressing it before landing on a rail or edge to grind, or press a directional button before pressing the trick key to do a flip trick or grab trick in the air!

The most important trick to learn for doing longer combos and getting more points is the manual - press up, down before landing and you will continue your combo. You can extend your combo indefinitely as long as you can balance and do manuals between other tricks!

This is Walk To The Spot. A game where you (our glorious hero)... walk to the spot. And then you walk to the next one. And the next one. Until the random explosions kill you.

The more spots you walk to, the higher your score. Can you get the new high score? There is only one way to find out...

You've got to walk to the spot!

Controls

You move around with the d-pad.

After "game over" you press X to play again.

Advanced Strategies

  • Avoid explosions
  • Keep walking to the spot
  • Walk diagonal to move faster
  • Play it so much that you start walking to the spot IRL
  • Have fun
  • Walk to the spot

Credits

Brian Knapp (me) - I made this.

(Sorry for double posting, i cant delete blog post)
--A little off-topic:

Greetings, great people! Some of you might remember that i made a post crying about how i dont get 3d. Some of you gave me a lot of great advise, which i followed. Howerver, i still could get it really until near current time. So here it is, somewhat modified Zep's dots3d demo. Maybe i be not that smart anyway.

--somewhat interesting part of text:

This tiny engine can render a 8x8x2 dots figure, it takes what to draw from sprite 001, thought depth isn't a thing you can change per-sprite. Right now there is a trollface, if you didnt notice.

--what you can do with it:

draw youself a 3d dots figure by changing sprite 001. i would love to see anything being done with it.

This is some work I did on creating some more fancier looking shadows, which could either be a rectangle version (thanks to @2darray for extra help on that) or using any shaped size or coloured sprite to use as a mask for the shadow effect.

I'm sure with using some additional math and tline you could probably create a lovely dynamic lighting effect with it too.

Press X or C/Z to see the other two tinting types in action. CTRL+P to see the performance hits.

it's a 2 players only game with one button each to play.

One player use buttons X or C and the other the arrow keys.

This game is inspired by Chiritorie on wario ware inc. on GBA.

Here's my try on John Conway's Game of Life. If you don't know what it is, please read about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life

I tried my best to make it fast enough and not overload pico 8, which caused some inconveniences such as an invisible cursor. But it is anyway much fun to use and add life on the run. So idk, i'm open for any suggestions on how to improve it!

--Controls:
Press space bar or X button to start or stop life generation.
Press Z to delete all life on the screen

You may use the mouse to add life by simply clicking left mouse button or delete it by pressing right button. By default it will add just a single life pixel, but you can change it to different patterns using these characters on the keyboard:

  • 0 - just a singe life pixel
  • 1 - block
