Hi everybody!
Last week I launched one of the smallest JRPG's you'll ever play: TinyRPG! Recover your stolen egg by defeating monsters, level up and discover hidden areas in my second Pico-8 game! (It's a multi-cart so unfortunatly not on the BBS)
https://prrrpl.itch.io/tiny-rpg
I'm really curious what the talented people in the Pico-8 community think of the game. I want to develop the game further so any feedback (especially on the player-experience) is very welcome!
Another thing I'm struggling with is attracting players! Does anybody have any suggestions with regards to this topic? I've reached out to IndieGamesPlus.com but I had a hard time getting in touch with other media-centric folks with an affinity for the smallest Indie Games.
Thanks so much in advance!

An attempt to replicate the Star Gate effect from "2001: A Space Odyssey." Use Z to turn the 'music' on or off.
Made in ~2 hours , because I lost a challenge. Based on an original idea by raphael stemmelen.
Controls :
Arrow keys : move
I didn't find any way to change it,is it even possible?
Left/Right to move.
X to interact.
Move fast, complete collegaues' requests, and earn money to buy the gift.
This game was made by me and my collegaues: Ilya Aleksandrov and Ilya Koplevsky for a quick 5-day jam - the Black Humor Jam at itch.io
We've worked together for a few years, yet this is our first attempt to work as a gamedev team.
map(level*8,0,0,0,8,15,0) for i=1,8,1 do map(level*8+8-i,0,56+i*8,0,1,15) end |
First I want to say Pico-8 is a lot of fun and I was able to get into it quickly despite barely any knowledge of LUA.
So I got the idea to only draw half a level and mirror it to be symmetrical, however collision detection doesn't seem to work on the right side. I can post more if anyone needs more information, but I've included a GIF showing the issue and the code I used to generate the map.
Pull boxes, press X if stuck.

Hi, everyone. I made a very simplistic scene manager for you all to use, its somewhat compressed as well. here's an example:
Basically, this scene manager allows you to create init, update and draw for each scene (as well as anything else you want to cook up, of course).
HOW TO USE
to make a new scene, use the command 'nscn' inside of your init function. for example: nscn({init=function() end, update=function() end, draw=function() end})
to grab the current scene thats running so you can modify it or its variables, you can simply create a local variable called 'self'.
local this=scn['self']()
(or local this=scn.self())
to switch to a scene, you'll need to comment the ID of that scene so you don't lose track. I recommend you have a function that launches at the init() of your game that creates all of your scenes for you.
command to load a scene: scn_mng.go(id) where id is the scene number you want to run.
Finally, you need to put the 2 commands inside draw() and update(). in update(), put scn_mng.update() and in draw put scn_mng.draw()
code snippit:
--scene manager
--shooting★
scn = {self=function() return scn[scn_mng.r] end} scn_mng = { go=function(s) scn_mng.r = s scn[s].init() end, draw=function() scn[scn_mng.r].draw() end, update=function() scn[scn_mng.r].update() end } function nscn(d) local a={ init=d.init or function() end, update=d.update or function() end, draw=d.draw or function() end } add(scn, a) end |
code example (used in cart above)
--sample
function create_scenes()
--scene 1
nscn({
init=function()
--create a local var called
--this and set it to self
--scene
local this=scn['self']()
--create particles
this.particles = {}
for i=0,16 do
local a={rnd(127),rnd(127),rnd(2)}
add(this.particles, a)
end
--create a timer to switch
--to scene 2 with
this.timer=0
end,
update=function()
--create a local var called
--this and set it to self
--scene
local this=scn['self']()
this.timer+=1
if this.timer==120 then
this.timer=0
--switch to scene 2
scn_mng.go(2)
end
end,
draw=function()
--create a local var called
--this and set it to self
--scene
local this=scn['self']()
--draw particles
for i=1,#this.particles do
pset(this.particles[i][1],
this.particles[i][2],
7)
this.particles[i][1]+=this.particles[i][3]
this.particles[i][2]+=this.particles[i][3]
end
end
})
--scene 2
nscn({
init=function()
--create a local var called
--this and set it to self
--scene
local this=scn['self']()
this.timer=0
end,
update=function()
--create a local var called
--this and set it to self
--scene
local this=scn['self']()
this.timer+=1
if this.timer==120 then
this.timer=0
--switch back to scene 1
scn_mng.go(1)
end
end,
draw=function()
cls(1)
end
})
end
function _init()
--create scenes
create_scenes()
scn_mng.go(1)
end
function _update()
scn_mng.update()
end
function _draw()
cls()
scn_mng.draw()
print('running scene '..scn_mng.r, 0, 0, 7)
end |
