With almost laughably low power, a monochrome screen, and unique controls, niche-micro console Playdate shouldn't make any sense in a world of modern gaming. Yet, it's near impossible not to love it. www.wired.com/story/three-...

impressed by the contact stability.

and in psi per inch^2 for good measure?

c’est effectivement trop choupinou et tellement Lego (sans les trucs moches que tu as construit dans ta chambre 😬)

something like c# (say) will come with ‘built-in’ network, json (and xml) parsing, threading… that somewhat ease development when you don’t have the luxury of a framework team (and not trying to coerce you into jumping ship!)

Frederic Souchu @fsouchu.bsky.social · 23d

I respect that 👌
(ever contemplated newer languages for a single dev team?)

coding in what? c++? c#?

Frederic Souchu @fsouchu.bsky.social · 23d

xm…what?
why using this antiquated format (compared to json or yaml or a custom dsl)?

correct answers are:
retry / later

neat effect!
(tbh since spritesheet rebasing + himem this is no longer necessary but oh well 🤷‍♂️)

thinking about it - on turn, a slight rotation of the camera could do wonders (minor tilt + some left/right?)

Frederic Souchu @fsouchu.bsky.social · Jul 29

so the yellow guys are keeping their heads? unfair :)

trick: index your localized strings with the english text. the key acts as a fallback if the localized entry doesn’t exist.

Frederic Souchu @fsouchu.bsky.social · Jul 21

for those wondering- #pico8 on the left!

Frederic Souchu @fsouchu.bsky.social · Jul 21

at this point, let’s rename pico8 to adam8 🤣

Frederic Souchu @fsouchu.bsky.social · Jul 21

got back to #pico8 POOM SDK and fixed some long due texture alignement bugs!
new SDK version to be released soon - good time for a total conversion :)

what are light rules? thick walls: blocks light / thin platform: let it through?

nice premises!
