This is a maze generator in 191 characters.
t={-2,2}function g(x,y)if(pget(x,y)<7)return
line(x,y)::l::r=rnd(t)if(rnd(2)>1)then
g(x+r,y)else
g(x,y+r)end
line(x,y)if(rnd(99)>1)goto l
end
cls(7)g(0,0)pal(7,8,1)pal(6,7,1)::_::flip()goto _ |
This is my first time doing this, let me know if it could be improved.

I made this little game just to see if I could figure out how to make an isometric game without using a tutorial so it's more a tech exercise than a game. But, if you miss tank controls or have nostalgia for 80s computer games that weren't quite ready to shed their arcade roots, then this might maybe be for you.

I finally got a framework ported. isn't my work, its @KuuttiGang
this isn't using p8x8 since it'll work under a sandbox.
the only thing I had to change was the button symbols and implement
the pico-8 fget system (the only thing I got from p8x8)
Anyway, if you use it, credit the original author. you can credit me
if you want, idk tbh. anyways I'm about to use it myself so, I'll be
right back, under a new name
(the web player is faster than the picotron app, I dunno what to do abt that)

Is anyone else old enough to remember those little horse racing games where you just watch ASCII or pixel horses race and try to guess who would win, or the horse race games at the carnival with the water guns? I wanted to create something simple like that but I figured someone else already had. Lo and behold, I ran across a BBS cart that was just that kind of basic game. I loved the simple, colorful animated horse sprites in the cart and since it was CC4-BY-NC-SA licensed, I started thinking about how to turn it into a fully fleshed out horse racing game, and that's how Horseplay was born!
In Horseplay, you are a naive, fresh-faced kid heading to the track with $100 and a dream of hitting it big. Place your bets at the gambling window and see if you can take home some big winnings! Keep an eye out for a shifty looking guy at the track. Rumor has it he has some hot tips about the horses, but he seems more than a little unsavory . . .

I'm trying to change my email, so tried to change it through my account settings. After I put the new email in the email field, I get an confirmation email, but when I click at the confirmation link that's sent to that email, the bbs email doesn't change, I just get log out from my account. Pls help!

Gameplay
- Collect Holy Water to fill your Flasks and Level Up! Each Level will grant a different powerful Blessing. Activating a Blessing will consume all flasks.
Development
My first video game! Coded entirely on PICO-8 in May 2024, while restlessly tuning into the Lazy Devs Shmup PICO-8 Tutorial.
This was also my first PICO-8 project, and it won't be my last.

I would write my frustrations if the cookies of my login didn't run out and ended up deleting my draft so I'll make it quick before a vein pops; Platform stutters, no matter what I do, at random intervals. There's no cart (it's so annoying I cannot even write code). I've tried to:
- Reinstall older versions.
- Cleaning the pico8 roaming folder.
- Nvidia drivers and settings (vsync and such).
- Change foreground_sleep_ms and host_framerate_control.
This started happening after I upgraded to windows 11, before that I had 0.2.1 and I had no issues.
Please help.

Posting for feedback on my game in early development. The concept/goal is to game-ify the performance of an exorcism. This version is the first attempt I ran with, and I'm already itching to explore other options for what this game could be, but getting kind of lost. I almost see it becoming a more undertale style turn-based battle with real time events. There's a lot of questions to answer. What ways could the demonic force challenge or fight the player? What's it mean mechanically to exorcise and maybe then fight the demon? Could faith as a resource come in to play? Adding horror elements? Ditch the three lives and use a health system? I'd love to get your thoughts. Thanks.

Fight off waves of enemies and gain an upgrade after each wave.
I made this in about a month and was very inspired by the combat of Hollow Knight (this is essentially my version of the Colosseum of Fools from it).
Controls + Instructions
Controller works too, O and X are just some of the main 4 buttons.
move---⬅️/➡️
jump---🅾️
slash---❎
heal---hold ⬇️
ability---tap 🅾️+❎ at same time (+ ⬆️/⬇️ for some abilities)
You can hold the up/down arrow keys while slashing to direct it up or down, this can be done in mid air and you can bounce of enemies head if you slash down on their heads (aka, pogoing).

Space Collector
This is a small twist on Space Invaders game, my first Pico-8 completed game, and a submission to the PP Jam #5
Whole game and all it's content was created during the jam (two days).
How to play:
Use arrows to move your ship and X button to shoot
Release gems by destroying robots which hold them (be careful not to destroy gems!)
Collect falling gems to score points
Avoid robots' attacks and don't get killed!
