Messing round with 3d in #picotron. It's a bit limited, but I think I can make something simple work.

yes! there are still three more days (or like two and a half) to make your own cursed version of your favorite block-dropping puzzler! It's not too late to get started!!

blastron @blastron.bsky.social · 24d

lord help me i'm entering the #fallingblockjam. surely three days is enough to make a dr mario ripoff

step one is to get a grid with some jerks on it and then implement the puyo puyo kick table so you can dance around the jerks because it's 2025 and we have to, as the kids say, "schmoove"

Due to the amount of people participating in #FallingBlockJam, there's a shortage of blocks, so you're gonna have to make them yourself.

Not much done today. Will hopefully mark a bunch of stuff off the todo list.

taking shape... there's a small chance I'll change the controls again but I'm focusing on the rest of the game for now. #FallingBlockJam #pico8

Spent the entire time today fixing all the small cases of the movement. Hope it will be worth it.

Unsaved changes asterisk for #picotron 0.2.0i -- it watches an optional hint function passed to wrangle_working_file() for possible changes (e.g. when the undo stack position changes) and occasionally compares with the last saved version to confirm. In this GIF I'm undoing back to the saved state.

Not entirely sure how this will work out. Yesterday I only did a little bit of the art.

Updated Can of Words to v1.1. Adding a preview of the current word and a button to peek at the grid on the scoring screen.

lol, the optional theme is somewhat the opposite of the idea I was thinking of.

Hmm, since I'm done with Can of Words, I might join this.
