Stumbled over the #Pico8 console project by MrPicklePinosaur. They're designing a Pico8-specific #HandheldGaming console, with its own games launcher (built on #Linux too), using the #RaspberryPi Compute Module 4.
I'm beyond interested, to say the least!
Website is here:
Single step raycaster experiment accidentally generated an anxiety dream with some impossible spaces. Too confusing to use in game, but a fun diversion.

Everyone, stop what ur doing and check out this wonderful #Pico8 game that redplanetcat.itch.io created for the #StopKillingGames jam 
They created it using my #SCUMM8 engine, it looks and sounds absolutely gorgeous, plus the dialog and puzzles are on point too! 
I won't lie, seeing this pop into my notifications completely unannounced absolutely made my day 
(..and has inspired me to progress with the #Picotron successor 
)
Play it on @itchio here:

If the 3D space is always going to be a square, you can draw walls using a single-step raycaster for a more modest CPU cost and ~200 tokens. Really did this to see if it would work, not sure it's flexible enough longterm.
Sure I will eventually want "not a square".

Working on SUPERHOTROIDS for a bit, trying to implement a real-time replay like in the original game
The theme we chose for our jam was "retro arcade game with a twist", so I made SUPERHOTROIDS : a version of Asteroids where time only moves when you do
Cattle Crisis is now available at Newgrounds! Complete with online scoreboards and achievements!

Okay I'll take a little break from all my Densha de Go posting for a little (probably), but I just wanted to highlight that not only is it officially released on a ton of systems, fans have released their own homage games on even more! Like Playdate (Zero Zero Perfect Stop) or my beloved PICO-8 (Cab Ride)!
"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.

I dropped the three-star scoring mechanic. You are now awarded a rosette for completing a level, and can hunt for the buried bone as a secondary goal. #Pico8 #GameDev #PuzzleGame #ThinkyGame
