In fact, NONE of my #picotron projects on itch.io now have downloadable executables!
By older #pico8 stuff still seems intact.
Am I really going to have to rebuild and re-upload these files???

Identity crisis #5!!! My #picotron twin-well #tetris game now has a Metroid theme (it's what I'd originally planned - hence the wall crawlers - but in a completely different way) and a new name, "Tetroids".
Testing level palettes and using the whole screen.

Trying #permacomputing with #UXN:
1 min later: where do the files get saved to
3 min later: how do I open a specific file
10 min later: program.rom document.txt -> program quiet
11 min looks at the code dosnt read a thing
Will try next year maybe with #picotron as that is more readable to me

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

My #picotron #tetris game now has a name: teleportris (unless someone suggests something better - a low bar!) and title and mode/level selection screens.

Trying to learn batching graphics with userdata in #picotron. Massive performance difference compared to a more traditional AoS approach. I can shift 2000 sprites with < %50 CPU.

Restyled & cleaned up my 1P, twin-well #picotron #tetris.
* wall crawlers add penalty rows
* massive bonus for 0 penalty rows on level clear
* 4 difficulty levels
Really hard for me to balance since I'm so rubbish at Tetris but one of the few games I've made where I'm getting distracted playing it!

My #picotron twin-well #tetris style game now has a (kind of) metroidish theme. Really like the wall crawlers as replacements for the timer. Gives the whole thing a more dynamic look. Style is pretty disjointed at the moment but it already plays pretty well.

A few game rules added to my #picotron #tetris -like experiment. Use space (or shoulder button) to teleport the piece between wells. If you don't clear a row before the red timer bar reaches the other side, a penalty row is added. My brain hurts!

WIP for family accounts; #picotron (and later #pico8 & #voxatron) owners will be able to add up 5 family members to their account, each with their own username & icon. Also handy for testing multiplayer games during development.

#picotron 0.3.0b is up -- a few bug fixes + cartridge updates: when a newer version of a cart is detected, a popup offers to update the .loc / splore .list location. www.picotron.net

obsessed with #tetris ideas in #picotron at the moment. This one is: what if, 2 play wells and, instead of "holding" a piece, you can move (teleport) it from side to side. Have some other ideas for this and I'm quite excited to try them out!

Go play it and try beating my score :P!

I wrote a little guide on the new scoresub system in #picotron to hopefully inspire more games to get highscores in!
It is a brilliant new feature, coming back to my games to see new names on the highscore board makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
Thank you to all those who played them!

Optional cartridge version checking for #picotron 0.3.0b -- there is no "installing" so updating means rewriting the .loc or .list file's bbs:// location (works when launching from filenav or splore).

Apologies for anyone who tried to download Wor Games only to find there were no executables! No idea what happened but I've rebuilt and copied the files to itch.

Screenshot of the highscore board of "TenSum"
Scoresub for #picotron is out!
Getting it to work with my MAKETEN clone "TenSum" was surprisingly easy. Really great design by Zep!
Can't wait to play around with scoresub some more to create all kinds of online-ish projects. Asynchronous multiplayer games, highscore hunts etc.
