While we wait patiently for #picotron 0.3.1 polygon bliss, sspr performance is already pretty awesome so... sprite stacks FTW. #indiedev #gamedev

[searching through bins of busted old game consoles] wow these would go great in my bins of busted old game consoles

Found this lil bug while out thrifting today. Needs cables (and no clue if it works) but I think it’s pretty. 😍

Wait, was there never a lowercase ‘w’ in Super Monkey Ball 2? Guess I can still be AndreW #gamecube

I’ve got an itch to port some of my games to Playdate, since I’ve been playing mine a lot. Super Star Duck is the top contender, but Rocket to the Top and Cat Bandit would also be a good fit I think. Depends on if I’d rather port Love2D or PICO-8.

It took me a year, but my bullet-hell boss-fight game Death of Kairos is finally out. #pico8 #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev Play it for free here: @itch.io : voidgazerbon.itch.io/death-of-kai... BBS: www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=159...

I wrote a blog post about my experience transferring my Wii to a Wii U in this day and age, and the shenanigans that ensued. platformalist.com/blog/i-trans...

ummm ok what have i done as of late?... - token optimization - lotsa comments (readability!!!) - fix bug with leap height being inconsistent - minor visual changes when taking damage (not shown here cuz im goated) so progress is uhm pretty good i think #pico-8 #gamedev #platformer

How can I get structured world data cheaply in #pico8? The answer is always P8SCII. // for #pico1k ~ currently at 600 bytes .p8.rom // The room str: ?"\f1\^w\^o2ff\|j ★ - - \^g\|r=-`=-'`--"

👀 Eye Will Catch You 👀 My submission to #pico1k game jam. The jam just started an hour ago but will last for a month. The game is just 1023 chars long in #pico8 and only 625 bytes

I fit a small wave sim into less than 1024 bytes for the PICO-1K jam! Have fun going splish splash! thelxinoe5.itch.io/1k-wave-sim #pico1k #picotron

Guys, I know things like 'visuals' and 'gameplay' are kind of important but this little guy is moving and I'm feeling pretty good about that. #godot

love to platform in a black void

Lots of excitement about the squeaky beach sounds in Big Walk! You'll all be happy to know it's the real thing! Was absolutely giddy to get to record them on an actual Australian squeaky beach in Wilson's Promontory. Yes, if you didn't know some beaches there really do squeak. It is pure joy.

Man, I keep coming back to Computer Chronicles. Genuinely interesting how much the priorities of tech have changed over the years. Tech designed to intrigue regular folks or replace clunky, expensive devices. Oh, and the Linus interview is great too! youtu.be/h8zUW62oGKc?...

I’m excited to play my next @brin.town Paper App

More surreal rendering tests for #picotron 0.3.1, this time with tline3d textures x colour tables. Notes and gif: www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?pid=193...

Really cool to see one of my games get featured on the Lexaloffle BBS! Thought it was fitting to revisit it and fix some potential softlocks, and add a checkpoint/save system so the game can now be completed over multiple play sessions if desired. www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=142... #pico8

New Seal of Solitomb trailer! 🎉 Really happy with how it turned out. Sadly in 30fps here - if you want to see it in all its glory, the Steam page has you covered 👇 store.steampowered.com/app/3377230/... Might as well wishlist while you're there! 😉 #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

One of my high school computer science students created this PICO-8 port of Tetris. He did a great job coding data structures in Lua, a new language he learned as a side project in my class. Play it online or download the cart. #CSEd #PICO8 www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=156...

More WIP #picotron quad rendering using batch ud:dot() and ud:cull_gt() for backface / nearplane culling. This wireframe sphere is drawing ~2k wireframe quads (of 4k) at ~70% cpu using a :take() call + batch line() call per quad.

hey everybody. i made a new game. its called 10SJR. its a pico8 version of a tennis hell game. not a full sequel, an experimental test bed for 10S3 mechanics. just one level rn, but a new one each week until i get bored. playable in browser or download <3 owch.itch.io/10sjr

Gets tricky in later levels of my #picotron #moonpatrol. For the OG mode, I'm converting the layouts directly from my #pico8 version (give or take). 2 more enemy types to do: missiles and plants. Then I can work on enhanced mode stuff! Keeping my mind busy. #gamedev #arcade

Starting to feel like a space battle now. Some perf issues when lots of bullets in the air - might need to switch from polys to particles. And I need to figure out what role the large command ships will play - currently they just sit there. #pico8
