So I'm fiddling around with a quirky fantasy romper, following the wacky adventures of Stabitha and her sidekick Quiver. What do you kids think?
(that's not Stabby and Quiver, its just a random grab of orcs from my game WIP!)

- Stats screen (every 18 holes?)
I try to make a quick version of Conway's Game of Life in whatever environment I am trying to program in when first starting out.
It gets me familiar with loops, arrays and some general logic and looks kind of nice in the end.
There are lots of versions of this online already, but I hope you find this one somewhat colourful and pleasant.

Room of 100 Snakes is my re/demake of ArcaneKids' classic game Room of 1000 Snakes, originally released as a 3D game using Unity.
Unlock the mystery of snakes!
Here is what I have so far. I finished the basic game mechanics a few weeks ago and now I'm starting to expand beyond a normal space invaders clone. I just finished adding the particle effects and screen shake effect. I've never done anything like this before so this game is full of firsts for me. I'm planning to refactor the code and make it more organized before I add more features. I'm sure that you all have some advice for ways to improve the code and make it more efficient. I'm open to any suggestions you may have. After I'm done reorganizing the program I have several decisions to make. I'm trying to decide if I should add a health mechanic for the basic aliens or reserve it for bosses only.
Completed:
. collisions
. bullets
. square formation enemies(like space invaders)
. particle effects
. basic sounds
. basic title screen
. screen shake effect
. sprites and visual stuff
TODO:
. sprite animations
. better menu
. weapon upgrades / multiple types
. powerups/health drops
. multiple enemy types
. waypoint/parametric equation based enemy movement(like Galaga)
. score system and level progression
. a boss battle
below is the beginnings of my new enemy movement system that will make use of parametric equations as well as lerp and waypoints probably to make transitions smoother. In the carts below, the enemies are moving along a Lissajous curves. I think it looks pretty good for a swarm of aliens.
second lissajous movement variation:
I tried my hand at making a mod of Celeste. Let me know what you think, and whether or not I should continue :P
Let me know about the difficulty. Like is it too hard? or too easy?
EDIT: I need a real name soon :( . Version 0.2 tho
CHANGELOG:
Redid landscape to look more barren
Remade the main character because.
Changed Strawberries to look different for no real reason.
Changed levels 1-3 to either overhaul or make them more difficult.
EDIT:
Changed levels 4-6 to be more challenging
After defeating Numenas in Dungeon of Numenas, Numenas went into hiding in his castle, and it is now your duty to find him and defeat him one last time.
You can also find it on itch.io here.
Controls:
Use the right and left arrow keys to move.
Jump with C or Z.
Run with X.
Press up and C on the title screen to enable "speedrun mode", which will show you a timer and your P-speed bar.
Hello everyone !
I'm into troubles with installing pico8 on raspberry pi. I made pico8 and pico8_dyn work properly but... Keyboard layout is stuck in qwerty. I'm using a bluetooth keyboard but issue is the same with a wired one.
Everything is fine when launching from X but ko when launching from console... but console is properly using azerty.
I could have user picopi because I want to build something really similar but the lack of bluetooth and wifi makes me want to install it on raspbian.
Any help would be greatly appreciated !
Quick example of how you can save a sin/cos result for an angle, and then draw a whole rotated object with a bunch of drawing-API calls which all re-use the trig results.

VVVVV but in all directions
Early pass of a mod of the Jelpi demo. Hoping to continue to add new features (and of course make it look less derivative)
So, this came out of an experiment to see how I could replicate the line scrolling effects in some of those classic 2d racing games. Somehow I got the idea to make it into a demake of Desert Bus, the mind-numbing driving simulator from the unreleased Penn & Teller's Smoke and Mirrors for Sega CD. I sat on this for maybe a year because the code, especially the road-drawing, is pretty sloppy and I prefer my carts to be organized and well-documented... but, eh, what the heck.
Alright, well believe it or not this would actually be the FIRST platformer I have ever written, one where you have an actual map to navigate let alone a wall-jumping sprite.
Years ago I did make some action games that worked on grids using HIRES and LORES on the Apple computer, but as I got older I wanted more and more to make turn-based thinking games relying less on human-made maps and more on computer-generated - and that is my primary focus today.
Well - this is certainly not what is happening here.
In any case, it is complete, and hopefully others can learn from the code and make good carts from it.
The first thing it does is create a sample playfield for the player to explore.
Then you have a cursor letting you place your player sprite. Use arrow keys to navigate the 64x32 area and press O to do so.
Finally you are in Testplay. Arrow keys control the player. Press O to jump and X to return to select player position.
To Wall Jump, jump then hit a wall just as you are getting ready to fall. Your player will grip the side of the wall and then fling off in the opposite direction. You can use this to climb a narrow chimney for instance.
HOPE THIS HELPS !
