Published 2023-06-12


Welcome to PICOCRAFT, a Minecraft demake with extra features! This is my second finished PICO-8 cartridge. If there's features you would like to see in this or bugs that you find, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE leave a comment! I hope you like this. :)

1/30/2022: v1.17.1 Fixed Destroyer bug where they weren't destroying the blocks above them (it was destroying the block above the player, oops).
12/15/2021: v1.17 Added Bombs, DBombs (Destroyer Bombs), and made those damage you in Health mode if you're too close. (This will probably be the final major 1.x update, since I hit the token limit while coding this. Still, I'm proud of how far I've come with this!)
12/11/2021: v1.16 Fixed mining air playing the mining sound in creative mode, added coordinate overlay (in pause menu), added Health gamemode (don't fall too far!), and saving the gamemode. (To convert a prior save to this version, append "#1#1" to the end.)
12/10/2021: v1.15 Gamemode selection updated, weak mode added (no placing/breaking blocks), creative mode updated (break blocks instantly with your fist).
12/9/2021: v1.14 Conveyer-Springs added!
12/8/2021: v1.13 Orbs now stack (2x Speed Orb --> 2x the speed!) and work when placed in the world, and the OMNITOOL has been added -- a combo of the three main tools.
12/4/2021: v1.12 Added Creative Mode, accessible through the pause menu!
12/3/2021: v1.11 Added Orbs, vertical Movers, and made it so that mining Movers or open Doors give you the default version of themselves (e.g. open Doors give closed ones).
12/2/2021: v1.10.2 Fixed A BUNCH OF FEATURES NOT EXISTING (see below changelog for why).
12/2/2021: v1.10.1 Fixed max crafting/smelting not EXISTING WHAT
12/2/2021: v1.10 Changed controls from ESDF to WASD! YAY!!
11/30/2021: v1.9 Added skin chooser in pause menu! (To convert a prior save to this version, append "#1" to the end.)
11/28/2021: v1.8 Fixed buggy box moving, and added color blocks!
11/28/2021: v1.7 Added max crafting/smelting! Craft a whole bunch. (Note: This effectively just speeds up pressing Z a bunch of times -- even if you would use the last of an item, it's not entirely sure if you would, so play it safe and leave a slot open.)
11/28/2021: v1.6.1 The v1.6 bug fix caused performance issues after using a world with a LOT of Movers, so I fixed that. :)
11/28/2021: v1.6 Fixed bug with Block Movers not updating after being moved. Now you can make spaceships!

11/26/2021: v1.5.2 Made Block Mover unable to move Bedrock or items that need to be supported (e.g. Workbench).
11/26/2021: v1.5.1 Changed Stone Mover to Block Mover.
11/26/2021: v1.5 Leaves' breaking time scales with axes, destroyers and movers added.
11/26/2021: v1.4 Fixed bug with loaded games not being able to be resaved.
11/26/2021: v1.3 Added shovels and axes.
11/26/2021: v1.2 Fixed workbench cursor glitch.
11/26/2021: v1.1 Added day-night cycle saving and ladders. (To convert a v1.0 save to v1.1, append "#0" to the end.)
11/25/2021: v1.0 Initial release.

So apparently, somehow a bunch of changes in my working copy got reverted, leading me to have to download a previous version and make a few updates. Luckily, it all worked out, but it wasn't without stress. I honestly have no clue how this revert happened, but let's hope it doesn't happen in the future.
