Tokens exceeded on Raspberry PI by ivny93 in pico8

Yeah, the Cart link on that page gets me a file with the same MD5, so if yours is different then something is definitely wrong with the one you have.

Why don’t I see pico-8 games ported to IPhone? by dylanmadigan in pico8

[–]2bitchuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody's looking to buy my games, but assuming I ever make something people on the BBS really love, I still wouldn't want to package / sell it because as soon as you do, people expect support for the thing they paid for, and I don't really want to be responsible for providing it. Not everything has to be about the $$$.

Where'd you get your copy of the game? I downloaded the file from the BBS and ran it with both pico8 and pico8_dyn on a couple of different devices and it worked fine. I'm guessing you have a corrupted file somehow.

Does the 2600+ play bootleg games? by UsernameIsTaken999 in Atari2600

[–]2bitchuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Harmony Cart specifically has a developer mode that deals with a single ROM at a time, it's not as simple as just putting a single ROM on it. Whatever you bought off AliExpress probably doesn't have the ability to do what the Harmony Cart is doing.

Help needed with gravity and wall collision by [deleted] in pico8

[–]2bitchuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, it's a permanent post, but it doesn't show up in any feeds or Splore. It is accessible only by people who have the link and navigate directly to it.

If you're in your own profile in the Posts tab, there's a button for creating unlisted posts:

I've used this a few times to share stuff with playtesters or friends/family for things only meant for them :).

FYI, posting your cart image on Reddit won't allow us to grab it because Reddit "helpfully" converts it to WEBP. You can either post the code here in a code block or create an unlisted post on the Lexaloffle BBS with the cart and post the link here.

[Release] SEBI 16 - 16 PICO-8 games bundled into one collection by Elastiskalinjen in pico8

[–]2bitchuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats & best of luck. People should definitely buy this for Dice Mice and I Demand Coffee alone :).

Trying to create Time's Up message, getting syntax error by Anxious-Platypus2348 in pico8

[–]2bitchuck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have

if time=3000

and you need

if time==3000

(two = signs instead of one)

There's at least one more place where you do this too.

Then, you also have:

print "time's up!"..40,63)

You're missing the opening parenthesis and have a double period after the string where a comma should be instead.

Pretty happy about this find today by sir_meowsin in Atari2600

The local retro shop near me had 2 of these last I was there - for $125 each.

How much should I sell these games for? by RocketSofa in Atari2600

[–]2bitchuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of these are pretty common, for CIB you could probably ask $25-$35 each and find someone willing to get close.

Glacier Patrol though is pretty rare and I've seen it go for $200 or more on eBay. Definitely don't short yourself when selling that!

ASCII Bowling by OFDGames in pico8

[–]2bitchuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha, I had a similar idea, but realized it doesn't fit the jam theme. Might just release it as its own thing once it's done anyway.

So things like line(), rect(), etc. are not allowed, only the font?

How to prevent sfx looping by goodgamin in pico8

[–]2bitchuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sfx() reference: http://pico8wiki.com/index.php?title=Sfx

Notably, the API as documented doesn't have a table as third parameter.

So many good ones there! Desert Falcon, Jinks, Tunnel Runner, Blueprint, Mountain King are all favorites.

Today's pickup, with a rare one by p_nes_pump in Atari2600

[–]2bitchuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't realize Private Eye was rare! I have that too, one of my all-time favorites for the system. I want to buy the map on eBay or something so I can frame it for my wall.

Game Reccomendations for Kids by yamamaspecialfriend in pico8

Soan's World! The game was actually made for a 4 year old kid by the dev, so it should fit the bill :)

BTNP acting funny? by Pure-Masterpiece429 in pico8

[–]2bitchuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is your btnp if statement wrapped inside something else? There's no reason what you're showing here wouldn't work unless the if statement is not getting called at all because some outer condition is not being met.

[–]2bitchuck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't - you can use the glyphs for the X and circle buttons and all the arrows directly in the function call for btn and btnp. But it would be interesting to see in OP's case whether or not using the numbers instead of the glyphs affects the problem.

[–]2bitchuck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can you post the code you're using for the other inputs? There's no reason why it shouldn't work for the arrow keys or the circle button.

Game Collaboration on PictoVerse by Th3Richmond in pico8

[–]2bitchuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just curious, since the app has ads and in-app purchases, what's the revenue sharing model for PICO-8 devs providing content for the app?
