What is PICO-8?

PICO-8 is a fantasy console for making, sharing and playing tiny games and other computer programs. It feels like a regular console, but runs on Windows / Mac / Linux. When you turn it on, the machine greets you with a commandline, a suite of cartridge creation tools, and an online cartridge browser called SPLORE.

Specifications

Display 128x128 16 colours
Cartridge Size 32k
Sound 4 channel chip blerps
Code Lua
Sprites 256 8x8 sprites
Map 128x32 cels

The harsh limitations of PICO-8 are carefully chosen to be fun to work with, to encourage small but expressive designs, and to give cartridges made with PICO-8 their own particular look and feel.

The limitations are really the beauty of PICO-8. It keeps your projects from collapsing under their own weight allowing you to focus on the core game.

Things

  • Clock it's a clock with both analog and digital readout. This was a fun project working with circles of the analog portion.
  • Mines A Mine Sweeper demake. It kind of works, it's ugly. A few good nuggets in there.
  • Mines 2 A Mine Sweeper demake again. Using the good parts of the first and adding multiple progressive levels. It's still ugly.
  • Pivot Pico A demake of Pivot XL (from Adamvison Studios). Its slowly improving. It's been fun to work on.
  • Canon A failed attempt at a Kitten Canon.
  • Jones A failed attempt at a "Jones in the Fast Lane" demake.
  • IT Slug A game about tech support hell. Garbage.
  • Cave Diver From the tutorial.
  • Lander From the tutorial.

pico-8's Issues

mines finding

drawgamewin and drawgameover are borked. You can't have a message type window as a new window is added each draw loop!

next up, a dialog type window, one which needs to be dismissed.

Basic menu system is needed.

The damn uncover is still way too slow. It may need to be map tiles instead.

Mines2 backlog

Short backlog of items

  • start menu
  • next level menu?
  • game over / lost
