I wanted to play around with LUA so I used pico-8 as an excuse to dabble. I made this after a few days: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=28402 At launch screen, use arrow keys for level up/down, lives up/down (q to enable "rapid fire" cheat) ... start game with either "z" or "x" key. Pico-8 uses 2 buttons primarily -- keys are mapped to "z" and "x" ... when playing, z will do fastest-sampling fire and x will do regular firing (this is most noticeable after using the q cheat.) If you use the q cheat -- the score will not count toward the high score. I stopped developing for pico-8 as I get it that some of the constraints are artificial, but I feel some are just too restrictive (like volume level on sounds). It's a fun little system with everything you need to use it built in. Some people have done some incredible things within the limitations of the system. |
