I've been getting closer to complete with PONG DFECT! Today, I've been implementing the custom game menu. There's a LOT of options that are modifiable! I've gotta give some of these values human-readable names, and add a game starting animation, but it's all hooked up! #pico-8 #gamedev

#PKMNDFECT Progress update! I've got all the sprites in, and I've wrote up the code for displaying them! Only problem is, now I have to go in and create the palettes manually. Not too terrible to set up though, just gonna need to go through this 150 more times!

To pair this with a rotary input wouldn't be too crazy though, you'd basically just convert that input to a pwm-like input for up and down. That's how the bots control the game, actually! They have a value that controls how many frames they wait before "pressing buttons", higher lets them go slower.

There's also this shadow mode, where you can only see your played pieces when they're in front of particles! It's spooky, but fun!

Originally, I was working with a 64x88 canvas, and about 8 layers or so... With this new rendering method, I've got a 128x88 canvas, with 64 layers! This upgrade lets me hide interesting things to the side of the card art that only tilting it will show! Also, more depth allows for a better 3D look!

Everyone's said this and all I'm doing is drawing a bunch of black circles instead of clearing the screen lmao I feel like I can take no credit for how it looks because of this

Good news I realized I did my math way wrong here's how it's supposed to look when done correctly

Been playing around with some title screen stuff! Who's that pokemon?! Lots of the gameplay scenes are planned out now, and I'm starting to implement them!

Which lead me to wanting to keep the "blood" around, but I ran into memory issues, so instead of drawing the whole scene, I fixed the camera in place and then only cleared the background, instead of where the walls were, leaving the drawn shapes forever.

#FragmentFriday - Another game I abandoned! This one was heavily inspired by bitGenerations: dotstream! This one's built in pico-8 and unlike dotstream there are no lanes, this made it kind of difficult to control, so I learned why they wound up doing that. I added boosters and NPC opponents!

ICYMI: Republicans BLOCKED my bill to fund TSA. Republicans are punishing travelers and forcing TSA agents to work without pay because they want to cut another blank check for ICE & Border Patrol. It's shameful.

Israeli settlers continue attacking Palestinians across the occupied West Bank, torching homes and property and terrorizing Palestinians, while Israeli occupation forces continue protecting settler attacks and expanding illegal settlements on stolen Palestinian land.
