"Caverns of the Souleater"
Father told you these caverns hold a great treasure. But all you've found are endless tunnels and venomous snakes. As your torch burns low, you wonder if the gold was ever real. And why he didn't share this with your brother?!

i just found out that 'do' acts like 'then' in #pico8
that might get you some extra bytes in #tweetcart's/#postcart's or in #pico1k jam

"Dark Ages"
The first couple of nights after they cut the power were just scary. Then the looting and burning began. Streets in flames. And that smell. You didn’t have to die to go to hell.

The problem with synthoids was that they simply thought too much, overly fixated on optimization. The organics played the long game, dancing patiently since the dawn of time.

It's a bizarre hybrid based on picolove project. Pico8 palette and api but with all the memory and cpu cycles available for love2d. All this bacause I've got huge levels with sth like 200k objects
