Walk without rhythm in this game where you just walk to a target
BUT be careful because if your steps are too even you can summon THE WORM

Originally developed for Ludum Dare 55 in 3 hours because I was on vacation :D
I spent the last 2 years polishing this game
music was composed by Hannes Zimmmmmmer
Lisan al gaib!






Controls
use the arrows to move the reindeer and navigate between the menus, use the X key to confirm.
The shots are automatic, it's like vampire survivors.
Rules
Survive the shots and enemies, when you survive for a certain time you will receive rewards. After choosing a reward you will have to survive again. This is the gameplay loop.
Behind The Scenes
This Game is made in 7 days, i made it for The a Game jam, and i win the Game jam.
This is an updated version of the game, the original is in Brazilian Portuguese, so I had to translate the game into English, forgive me for any translation errors.
Credits
the game entirely made by riko, if you want to check out my itchio here is the link:
5 years after its release, Shift Trap receives an enhanced edition! This great cart by Sol was held back by sound design that wasn't on the same level of polish as the rest of the game. I loved this game and wanted to tighten it up just a little bit to create the definitive version.
SHIFTTRAP - Enhanced improvements:
• Entirely new music composed by me!
• Removed the constant banging of the gears in the background.
• More pleasing sound effects.
• Added difficulty toggles in the menu between normal and hard.
• Cutscene timing and writing was tweaked to be more concise.
• Several new sound effects added to cutscenes.
• Three levels were tweaked slightly to improve the difficulty curve (levels 2, 11 and 21)
• The duration of the hourglass energy was increased to make it more useable and fun.

I'm back!
Okay, I guess no one cares, lol.
I have a new game idea here:
A role-playing platformer game!
The main character is a ghost (a cute, white, round, bouncy one), and he wakes up in a big manor house for unknown reasons
So he had to search for various fragments in the manor and pick up memories of the past.
The gameplay of the game is that players can control the movement of the ghost, and fly in stealth for a limited time. There are still living people in the manor, so they cannot be detected.
Also here's a soundtrack I just made:




i tried adding display_hdmi_rotate / display_rotate / lcd_rotate / display_lcd_rotate =1 in /boot/firmware/config.txt but that only works if i disable kms which causes pico-8 to fail to boot.
i'm running whatever version of raspbian you can get pico-8 rotated on. raspbian full with cmdline boot, raspbian lite, 32 or 64 bit.
i added video=HDMI-A-1:800xx480M@60,rotate=90 to cmdline.txt and that only rotated the cmdline, not pico-8.

Drilt is an Asteroids-style arcade game I've worked on sporadically for while now. For reasons, the next step in its developement requires a complete rewrite from the ground up. So while I pull together a V2, I wanted to post the prototype version and gather some much-needed feedback!
Warning
This game features some intense graphical effects and filters. Most can be toggled in the settings menu as you see fit.
If you believe an effect that isn't disableable should be, please let me know!
Controls
Arrow Keys - move, navigate menu
Z / Select - confirm menu option
Description
Drilt places you in control of a mining ship in an unexplored asteroid belt. After suffering severe hull damage, the ship must replenish its leaking fuel with minerals from the rocks it drills. However, a lurking observer takes issue with your intrusion, and sends its fleets to combat you.


I made a game called Daruma Dolls for Brackeys Game Jam 2025.1
Apologies for not uploading the cart yet, the code is a mess at present, but I will put that out soon.
I didn't get much time so I didn't do everything, but I have so many ideas/features to add. Some of them are new expressions, different colored dolls, and better indicators when the rules change. Please check out this game and if you have any ideas, tell me. Thanks :)

You can play the game here on itchio and as usual I put in some effort on the game profile too.
I can’t figure this one out…
I’m trying to make a simple game where the player picks up strawberries in a set amount of time. I used Rnd() and mset() to randomize where the strawberries are on the map everytime, but I can’t figure out how to make the player interact with them. I can make the strawberries add to a counter, but don’t know how to swap the tiles to the version of the sprite without the red dot that represents the strawberries.
I know I’m doing something wrong but don’t know what. I’ve tried using collisions and flags, and mget and mset, but still no luck.
How can I solve this?

Hello! This is our entry to Brackeys Game Jam 2025.1
A quirky Earthbound-inspired RPG about pants. (more like a tiny demo if you ask me...)
Featuring a custom scripting engine, a cute protagonist and a story all about pants.
We may or may not continue working on this game to make the story a bit less about pants. (no guarantees)
This isn't exactly a "complete" game, much of the story is left to be told.



Finally finished my first game. Particle effects were modified from this awesome post https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=53826 and, after adding them, i realised that there's probably a lot i can do to clean up the code so any brutal code review is obviously welcome.

Hello. This is my first game (and using pico 8). I made it for my 5yr old daughter.
Unfortunately the id of the game is something random instead of the intended title...
goal
The idea is simple : solve the equation and receive a coin.
controls
The x is 'enter' and the arrows for navigating.
Please enjoy the game and I if you have any feedback please share.
