Selena the Retro-Princess<p>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)!</p><p><a href="https://vmst.io/tags/playdate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>playdate</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/pico8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pico8</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/trains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>trains</span></a></p>
theNE<p>Another mod of the drippy demo. It is more randomized, there are more colors, and it uses coroutines under the hood. It is more like paint that dries out with time.</p><p>Try it out here:<br><a href="https://thenotexpert.com/games/Pico8_demos/drippy/coro/drippy_coro.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">thenotexpert.com/games/Pico8_d</span><span class="invisible">emos/drippy/coro/drippy_coro.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/pico8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pico8</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gamedev</span></a></p>

2something<p>Blobun Mini, a free Pico8 game by <a href="https://chitter.xyz/@roxy" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@roxy@chitter.xyz</a><span>, is out today on Steam and Itch. It's based on their earlier game Blobun, the cute Hamiltonian-path puzzle game with a story about a lesbian slime bunny. <br><br>The new game is not a direct port of the original: it's 60 new levels with the same core gameplay. <br><br>The mini version lacks the story of the main game, but it does still feature the "lesbian toggle" to make homophobes angry.<br><br>I completed the whole thing in just under 70 minutes of play time: it felt easier than the "main" game, but maybe that's just because I had more practice having already completed that one. <br><br></span><a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Blobun" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Blobun</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/BlobunMini" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BlobunMini</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/LesbianToggle" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LesbianToggle</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Pico8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pico8</a></p>
Pico/Retro<p>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. <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/Pico8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Pico8</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GameDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GameDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/PuzzleGame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PuzzleGame</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/ThinkyGame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThinkyGame</span></a></p>

Possibly the worst code I've written in 20 years but it lots of fun to hack together.
