24.07.2025 22:15 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I'm definitely going to try and attend.
24.07.2025 12:41 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Secret palette almost a necessity!
I wouldn't say "moved" to picotron, but I'm currently working on a project in it. I'll likely jump between the two depending on what I fancy working on at the time!
Yeah! My original intention using it was to have blood splatter on the character for example.
21.07.2025 08:25 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0In theory yes! In practice generating the animation data referencing the skin pixels is time consuming and tricky enough even for a single character. But yeah certainly possible depending on the designs, especially for smaller and simpler characters.
21.07.2025 07:41 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Yeah the thinner platforms don't block the light.

Graphics are stored not as an array of pixel colours, but pixel indices to a "skin" graphic. Allows just this skin to be updated and all animations reflect the new colours. Also left/right asymmetry can be kept no matter flip direction! #indiedev #gamedev #picotron #pico8
This week in untitled stealth ninja platformer. Improvements to light/shadow, some camera work and player animations. Next I guess some kind of gameplay maybe? Games have that right?

Exported binaries pause behaviour is a big fix! Thanks zep!

15.07.2025 07:43 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Sounds great! I am on the discord so I'll have a look on there too! Thanks and good luck with the release!
06.07.2025 08:41 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0Looks great mate. As somebody also developing a game on picotron I'd be really interested in your dev process and steam release process if you have any devlogs or blog posts!
06.07.2025 00:01 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I linked the manual entry, but basically just include the extra files in the export command.
04.07.2025 01:03 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Ah yeah that's a lua out of memory error. Most likely because you deleted a function body and caused some issue with parens8 parsing or something.
03.07.2025 22:02 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Hi, do you mean out of tokens/bytes when exporting? Or out of memory lua message when running? If the former, I know I was pretty close to the pico8 limits by the end so adding anything without taking away something else might be very tricky.

02.12.2024 16:57 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Judging game difficulty is hard when you're the dev playing your game countless times during development.
That is why play testing is so important! Lesson learnt!
Samurise now updated with less frustrating levels (I hope)!
