Side effect of making the title screen in a hurry: the logo and text are pushable actors.

It’s absolutely incredible that one of the largest Japanese-run Go servers, which has been running since 1992, is still accessed entirely via Telnet. And while most players use GUI clients that use Telnet under the hood, you can still connect manually and get ASCII graphics streamed to you

I just launched 20 apps that I built over the last several years, and a screensaver that I built whilst waiting for App Store Review!

If ya'll could boost my game I'd very much appreciate it!

Trying to get to 50 reviews for the Steam algorithm. I already have glowing reviews from the likes of Raigan Burns (N++) and Daniel Linssen (Leap Year) and just need a handful more.

*intermediate school, rather. By secondary school (early 90s for me) kids had issues of Sega Power and other less endearing magazines kicking around. The likes of Zzap and its ilk are still very magical and other-worldly to me.

Somehow it was easy to get cheap bundles of secondhand Whizzer and Chips though for some reason.

That's a good question. I assume so, because the main magazine importer in NZ was "London Bookshops" which was what it sounds like. But they were crazy expensive -- I went through all of primary and secondary school without ever seeing a video game (or programming) magazine. Times were tough.

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.

#picotron 0.3.0c is up on lexaloffle & humble picotron.net
Changelog: www.lexaloffle.com/dl/docs/pico...

The 0.3.0c web player also has experimental support for scoresub/podnet. If you have BBS account (and own any console) try submitting scores from boink: www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?pid=186...

Added rotation for the ball based on the tangential speed on contact. This is not physically "accurate": some energy should be spent changing the ball's rotation speed, and there is no friction on the walls. But it feels better! #pico8 #gamedev

Working on a remake of Neko Puzzle in its most natural form: a #picotron desktop app. It also has a multiplayer mode (drop in anytime to a single shared game with endless 1-minute rounds) that will eventually be cross-playable with a #pico8 version.

Using Lobo's Hop, Potato! icon as a bookend for a stack of documents; 1. easy to see where the end is when shuffling through with the mousewheel, and 2. looks like a snake.

endfield by konsumer demo for Wild, 1st at Revision 2026

Had a really fancy easter weekend at @revision-party.bsky.social and managed to finish a little demo on @lexaloffle.bsky.social's super cool #picotron system!
Check it out at Pouet:

Really fancy indeed ~ this is just pure joy, every moment of it.

(and I had fun poking around to see all the nice things you are doing with userdata and the mod player :D)

[WIP] #picotron 0.3.0c podnet running on the BBS. Watching the web app sync with changes made from the binary is pretty satisfying.

Cellular automation has been such a fascinating thing to incorporate in my game

It's impossible to fully understand the behavior of a configuration because the massive possibility space, but at the same time very viable to develop a "feel" for how to find a configuration with a specific look
