Nice! I’ll take a look - thanks for the recc 🙏

Very excited for rounded rectangles!

#pico8 0.2.7 changelog (arriving next week): pastebin.com/raw/g8YxhpnD

Wonderful, thank you!

This looks awesome !👏

Any underrated pico-8 games I should play? Want to explore more of the library beyond the featured tab

#pico8 #indiedev

Thank you!

It is a recent development!

The RPG battle field is coming along well #pico8 #gamedev #indiedev

This is a really neat prototype! I could absolutely see this being explored further

Gotcha - no worries. I think for this game the biggest thing I’ll need help with is playtesters. Good to know for a future game!

PICO 8 Music Theory for Programmers by Jenny Schmidt (bikibird) How Music Works

I have been using the Pico-8 engine and found this music theory basics guide - I found it super helpful!

Thanks! 🙏 I am getting very close to a playtestable alpha build so I may take you up on this

Feeling proud of myself that I was able to compose music for my own game (with some small pointers from friends)

Of course ! I think having a playable demo could be a good goal, that way you can get feedback and know if you’re on the right track. If you feel it’s working there’s nothing stopping you from iterating on it further or call that a release and make the sequel more ambitious

Shorter to complete - I think finishing things is its own skill imo

I feel like when I’m working on something I sort of just forget to post. I went to an indie game meetup and ppl asked “where they can follow my project” and I got no answer 😭

Nice work! I had a lot of fun with this one

Omg this looks incredible- I’ll take a look when I get some time. Thanks 🙏

Trying to make art in pico-8 without using too many sprite slots is a fun but challenging puzzle. Choosing what to draw and not based on a larger sprite requires some really clever tradeoffs.

Anyone have any advice for picking up trigonometry/geometry stuff for game dev? I am currently using AI code completions for more tricky parts but would like to have at minimum a baseline understanding of what I am receiving.

#gamedev #math #pico8

Amazing! Thanks 🙏

Very cool! Have a link to it? I could see myself needing this in the future

This is what happens when you believe the hype that vibe coding means you just need an “idea guy” to build a startup.

The technology may get there someday but today’s LLM-based AI coding agents ain’t it.

Yes lady who misgenders me constantly and makes mildly inappropriate comments about our coworkers, the New York Mayoral election IS a travesty 🙄

Nothing makes me wanna die more than my old coworkers talking about politics unprompted

I mean it’s gotta be more powerful than the Switch and that can play a number of 3D games yeah ? I get I can’t get the newest of the new but I’m sure there’s gotta be more than emulators here

This is good to know! Thank you for the vote of confidence!

Thinking of getting a Steam Deck - anyone have thoughts? Is it worth it?
