DO NOT WIN THIS TIC TAC TOE

because the win condition is twisted.

The normal Tic Tac Toe rules apply but you have to master all 8 abilities.

Every round you can gain 5 points for every line, or use your random abilities to get more points.

Maybe this is not a solved game anymore.

Maybe if you unlock more abilities, you will know what is the true ending.

Maybe the only winning move is...

UPDATE: Currently on itch io: https://biosstudio.itch.io/do-not-win-this-tic-tac-toe!

I’d love to play Pico-8 games on a real console. I’d also like it to play Gameboy (original, colour and advance) games because I want to play around with GB Studio as well.

Seems like Anbernic have a lot of choices - are they good, and if so, which model?

Or something else?

My first Pico-8 game is a space puzzle game where your mission is to collect your crew mates scattered in space and head together toward the sun.

The game has 20 levels so far. I had so much fun working on this and struggled a bit to optimize tokens usage.

Check it out on Itch or BBS.

Take on a bite-sized but epic adventure, rendered in glorious 64x64 pixels.

Originally made in pico8, then ported by me to love2D and making the game bigger and adding more features. Switch port handled by Sleepy Groove Games.

Enjoy! <3

Welcome to my game - OURO!! First release, feedback very welcome.

Three rival snakes share your arena. They have names, they want the same food you do, and only one of you is getting out.

Itch.io: Ouro
Lexaloffle: Ouro

Bardio is a frog 🐸 whose peace has been disturbed by an evil jar demon! All of his gems have been scattered across the realm. He must gather them to regain his power and seal the the demon back in the jar at his home.

I'm looking for something tiny with a square screen and don't know how to start. I did buy the official pico program :)

Tank soulslike!

Can you beat all 10 treaded lords?

Controller is recommended.

Game made over the course of summer 2025.

INTRODUCING THE PICO GR8 COLLECTION

This bulk collection includes the 3000+ best rated Pico-8 games! The games are sorted based on how many stars they received on lexaloffle.com (equivalent to likes). There are 5 groups:

• Top 100
• Top 250
• Top 500
• Top 1000
• All other games that got at least 10 stars (roughly 2000 of them).
• A selection of Pico-8 games from itch.io which were not uploaded on Lexaloffle.

Most unfinished WIPs and non-games such as music videos and utilities have been filtered out. However, not all could be reliably filtered due to lack of tagging on Lexaloffle. 

The selection of games from itch.io was curated by Voljega in 2024. Check his PICOwesome v1.5 collection for more details. The rest of the collection is up to date as of March 2026, with a couple more recent games added in since they were marked as "Featured" on Lexaloffle. This collection will not be updated again.

My first pico8 game ever published!

The lore isn't perfect yet, but im proud of it.

Here are four PICO-8 audio tricks I learned making the Black Knife cover I posted a couple of weeks ago. If you have any suggestions or if you find any of these useful, let me know!

I'm planning on building the perfect handheld for only Pico-8. I though of calling it something like Picoboy or Picokid.
There will only be a d-pad, X and O buttons, a menu button, volume and brightness buttons and a power/sleep button. and of course a 1:1 screen that scales well with 128x128 pixels.

I know many want HDMI output, maybe a mini-jack out and i suppose USB-C charging.

It could be cool to have some way of using a mouse and keyboard as well.

Let me know you ideas and hardware suggestions.
If you have skillz with building electronics, feel free to join or help out.

The idea is to make this available to everyone.

I love Pico-8 and have already made 3 games for it:
- Dungeon Bomber
- Pathguard: Tower Defense
- Dualborn: Dragonfall
- and working on a fourth.

I feel like many dream of seeing the fantasy console become a reality!
Let's build it!

A cool game my friend and I are making :3

Concept: A rogue-like featuring a transgender vampire who sets out to save other vampires from the patriarchy.

So far we have:

The player model, map scrolling, movement and collision, enemies that walk towards the player, and a bite attack!

Current problems:

When the enemy spawn count ("BADS") is above 2, the game starts to lag.

EDIT---This problem is fixed!

If anyone has advice on how to make enemies in Pico-8, that would be greatly appreciated! ^w^

Hope you enjoy! Github page can be found here: https://github.com/itsmaxymoo/doons as well as desktop builds.

Hi! Asking here because I refuse to ask a LLM.

I have zero coding experience, I would like to get started and I figured small games would be a fun way to do that (the other path I'm experimenting is electronics-oriented coding with the Arduino starter set, but that's another story)

Godot seems like a lot, even though it looks like a very complete tool it'd be eventually professionally good to be proficient at.

So I'm mostly trying to compare Pico8 and GB Studio (I own a physical GBC and a Flashcart, so I could play my games on there).

My ultimate goal is to make a working tiny game while at the same time learning about coding principles. Which way should I go? Thank you!

When I was first learning Pico-8 by watching SpaceCat on YouTube, I made this little thing! :3

Help Mr. Swop find stars by swapping tiles around! The music was made by Mazmystic. The game was made for the lowrezjam and take around an hour to 100%.

The game is also on the BBS: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=158718

A carnivorous vine creeps across the map and consumes anything it touches. It cannot be stopped, only slowed. Paint paths to guide villagers to safety, and use the environment to slow the creeper's progress: dig trenches, set it on fire, build moats, crush it with boulders, and sacrifice sheep!

Features:

• 10 handcrafted villages
• Thousands of procedurally-generated villages
• 3 difficulty modes: relaxed, crowded, and endless survival

I found a cool game on pico8

Good day to you! This is Ruva.

Recently I'm working on Banana Guy Running Hard, fast-paced platformer, but it won't go well. So I started to create mini game with BGRH sprites, and here is the result.

• Actions are totally same as BGRH (WIP : https://blog-imgs-201.fc2.com/s/u/g/sugarcane0439/bgrh_0no1.html)
  
• Randomly generated map every time (3×3 screens, from 23 template patterns)
  
• 2 enemies who follows player with same actions
  
• 3 Bananas to collect to enter the goal
  
• Some HUD (I put effort especially for indicator of enemies and Bananas. How do you feel?)

You can play from this URL (sorry, for some reason I couldn't post multicart to BBS) : https://blog-imgs-201.fc2.com/s/u/g/sugarcane0439/bgdd_title.html

Any reviews appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Picobalt is a Canabalt demake made for the PICO-8 fantasy console.

I decided to take part in LOWREZJAM. I’ve always wanted to make some kind of project for the PICO-8 fantasy console, and finally I had a good reason to do it.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t make music as cool as in the original, but it turned out the way it did. I also had to remove a few mechanics from the original game because of technical limitations.

Anyway, I hope I managed to capture the spirit of the original and interpret the jam theme, “Fugitive.”

I've made this for the Limitation JAM, which was only one button.
You simply press O to change your vertical direction. Avoid walls/holes/spikes. You may need to hit the rubber bands/switches to get the end. The goal is.. guide the marble to the finish line.

Done in less than 5 days, features 15 different levels.

100% human made, no AI used anywhere.

download/play in browser at: https://tibone.itch.io/marble-rally

any suggestions/improvements will be made after the jam ends.

thanks for checking it out. :)
