Sorry for the delay since my last post but I had been spending a lot of time working on a Swept AABB collision system to fix a bunch of issues with my old collision system. Behold! #pico8 #gamedev #indiedev

Some maps of an upcoming game that's about 97% finished :) Can you guess what it is yet ? #Pico8

I've asked on Reddit and the Lexaloffle forums but I'll try my luck here also:
Does anyone here have any experience with sound modulation on #pico8 ? Like LFOs, filtersweeps, phaser effects, etc.

It seems like it should be possible through manipulating an sfx's wavetable programmatically.
I tried poking a sinewave to memory and shifting it every frame but I just got some garbled mess

I feel like I'm definitely missing some basic knowledge

"Synapse" - 265 chars

As part of having a better flow work on formatting items, I made this "tool" to display them. Felt a little boring so I made a cool, tweetcart style graphic. I might end up using it on the game.

loving my painstakingly done main menu for my game im not even a quarter way finished with

Been working on some enemy sprites for the autobattler I'm working on. There's still way more I need to do, but I think I've landed on a style I like.

An incredible #pico8 #shmup just dropped. V-Impact by Buster Ermy. It's free and playable in the browser!

Currently experimenting with enemy speed/hp. Two stats tweaked and it feels like a different game. Might consider it for a different difficulty.

#pico8 has this charm that even the weirdest and most random game ideas just feel… appropriate

Procedurally generated building interiors.
Will need a bit of work on scale, and making them interesting and relevant to the type of building being explored.
But the basic idea is there.

PicoShorts mega thread

Once upon a time I started a short review series of cool #pico8 games I found, combine that with my old love of typing things and we got PicoShorts! A "bite sized review series"

After a year, with a new entry!

Feb. on #picocraft brings SFX, the 2nd map out of 4, the last token fight with the help of shrinko8 super tool of "thisismypassport" on github.

Fun fact, I discovered that original warcraft 3 SFX contains english monty python references, or french "diner de con" references !

Release is coming soon, it will contain 4 maps in Alliance vs CPU, 4 units, 6 buildings packed in 3 cartridge (96Ko) ! And I hope a lot of fun ! Before that I focus cpu balancing

Game's got bunnies now, that mess with your stuff.

Really in the pit of "who knows if this is a good idea at all". Eke-ing out the dev 30 mins a night at the moment, and basically doing stuff that makes me laugh at some other point in the day.

Thing is, it has led to ridiculous, antagonistic mechanics. The bunny moving things around broke the game because it picked up the coffee cup but couldn't get tired. The coffee is there to un-reverse the controls when you get tired.

Im-sim!

W3C proposal to replace all current web standards with the #pico8 specifications and the ability to load carts via https

Well, I got sidetrack, but hey, this is what is coming out of it. Its a single stick, score attack game on an Akira elevator which is a one way trip to redemption. As always, made in pico8
