It’s been a year since I released #Picocraft, a demake of Warcraft III on #pico8 with cool @brullov_art pixel art.
To celebrate, I thought I’d release the two editors I coded to help me create the four maps and animations.

IT'S GETTING AWAY

"self portrait"
still lagging behind #genuary and this took me forever but it was fun. mediapipe, three.js and a bunch of custom shaders.

Flying code seems to work.
LOD levels for the models will need a bit of adjusting due to the higher resolution.
This type of solid poly game looks quite nice in Picotron imo.

Working on the tutorial with an automated walkthrough.

Seemed to be getting basics across at last play-test though clunkily. So cutting down to focus on just the essentials!

probably the best part is picking your costume at the beginning

The treegen demo is absolutely beautiful!

#wishlistWednesday #indiegames #icytower

apparently there's a pico-8 game jam going on where the goal is to make a game under 1kb. that's 1024 bytes! sounds like a fun excuse to make my first pico-8 game :D

though, turns out it's over in less than 24hrs...

well, i guess im speedrunning it then! #pico1k #pico8 #gamedev

Strawberry Src v1.2.2

I've realised I've not posted about Strawberry Src here - I've created a code/text file editor for #picotron, and you can find it here: www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=148...

It's a bit of a down-scope from SpaghettiCode, instead more like Picotron's inbuilt editors but with new QoL features.

Ha, was gonna let you know about this one when I spotted it on the BBS, but turns out you were already aware! Great stuff @redplanetcat.itch.io ! #SCUMM-8 #pico8

My Stop Killing Games jam entry, "Dead Service", is complete!
Huge kudos to @liquidream.bsky.social for such a wonderful framework as SCUMM-8. It made developing this game a breeze.

Pole Station is now a featured #pico8 cart! 🤩 Play it (or other games) online at www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?cat=7#s... or find it in the Splore featured category!

I have been looking around for the same, but somehow never found one. Some potentially interesting ones I discovered (you may know these already) are lovr.org www.blockbench.net wiki.gdevelop.io/gdevelop5/ and www.unbound.io (maybe some day #picoCAD will be bundled with an engine, who knows :)

Dino Quake is out now on Steam and mobile 🦖✨

This game is my love letter to the arcade games I spent hours playing as a child - I hope you give it a try!

Hi @sega.jp let’s talk about a full game !;)

#pixelart #indiedev #gameboy #gbstudio #retrogaming

Haha, I trust the experience will change in the near future.

Absolutely agree on that, a Splore equivalent is sorely needed.

I like the bigger 12x12 sprites, but weren't you planning on joining the #picotron side? 😉 no overhead, plenty of sheet space...
