Here's my entry: Make Ten! I'm so happy with how this turned out -- it's a little math-based highscore-chasing game, simple rules with a lot of depth. the 500-character source code is the next post in this thread

I'm declaring P8X8 good enough for public release! It's a tool to convert #pico8 carts to #picotron -- it's not perfect and it requires some manual intervention in most cases, but it's magical being able to play a bunch of games on the new system without much effort

a converter tool on a Picotron desktop creates a playable version of celeste and cherrybomb, both originally for pico8. the games are controlled simultaneously

if yall are porting pico8 games into #picotron, or just want to use pico8's sprite editor, I made an importer that should help: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=140800

new game: ghost patrol! protect the town from an onslaught of spoooky spectres

I'd describe the gameplay as "open-ended puzzles" -- you'll have to be thinky and strategic with your movement, but I haven't designed it with any particular solutions in mind.

personally I've been playing it way too much - I'm hoping someone can beat my scores! but just clearing levels is an accomplishment too -- I'm told it's quite hard

gameplay gif, showing two heroes moving around a small arena. they move in straight lines until they hit a wall, and ghosts are spawning every few turns. minimal ascii-like graphics
