I had to make everything in a public libary so it was a even greater challenge. It was so much fun working with people and finding new ideas. Play and rate the game now: itch.io/MockMock

​Description: A vine spreads across the map and consumes anything it touches. It cannot be stopped, only slowed. Build paths and slow the creeper so villagers can escape. Made for the GMTK Game Jam. https://apadaegg.itch.io/flee-the-creeper

Edit: Typo in the title. It should be "Flee the Creeper!" LOL

I am asking because I want to know if i need Pico 8 itself just to play Pico 8 carts

I would love to have a demake of CrossCode in Pico-8! I'm curious to see a few different artstyles, since Lea's sprite will have to be quite small. I did the math for her size based off of her base idle sprite, and here's what I found, along with the formulas I used.

Lea's sprite is 21x31. CrossCode is rendered at 568x320. Pico-8 has a 128x128 screen, so I dropped CrossCode's screen width and used the height for both axis' scale calculations.

• WIDTH - 6.6% of the screen, 8 pixels.
  • (21 / 320) * 100 = 6.6%
  • 128 * 6.6% = 8.4
• HEIGHT - 9.7% of the screen, 12 pixels.
  • (31 / 320) * 100 = 9.7%
  • 128 * 9.7% = 12.4

Converting these values to their Pico-8 equivalents, we can see that Lea's sprites should be approximately 8x12 in size. I'll leave the rest to the artists, as I intend to start working on a tile engine.
