PICO-8 Carts

Introduction

This repo is a collection of carts (cartridges) that I have made for PICO-8, a virtual console for making and sharing video games. Each cart is its own "game" that can be loaded and played. Visit PICO-8 to learn more, and have fun!

My carts aren't full-fledged games, but they can be fun to mess around with. They provide simple examples of how to get started with movement, gravity, and collision detection.

Usage

To play the carts:

1. Purchase a copy of PICO-8 and install it.
2. Launch PICO-8.
3. Within PICO-8, use the "FOLDER" command to see where to put the carts.
4. Copy the carts (the *.p8 files) in this repo to PICO-8's carts folder.
5. Within PICO-8, load a cart like this: load platformer.p8.
6. Within PICO-8, run the cart using: run

Keyboard Controls

My carts generally use the arrow keys for movement and the 'x' key for action.
