LEAFBLOWER

(another PICO-8 game from me)

Controls

Menu: Z to start game.

Game: UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT to move the person, Z to blow leaves

Mechanics

Time to clear off your really large patio of all these pesky leaves. Blow them off the screen to finish each level, but watch you don't run out of time!

Commentary

February felt so short this year!!! Wow!!! I'm wrecked and March is right here to get me already. Another game done, and I think March will be my last #onegameamonth now. It's been a good run but I'm really tired.

Anyway this game was pretty fun to make, not much to say about it except I had the radical idea to hide my projectiles (the air that makes the leaves move) and it works quite well!

Install instructions

The game should work great in the browser whether downloaded or not! Download the ZIP and put both files in the same folder, then double-click on 'leafblower.html'. It should open like a normal webpage.

The binaries just need to be downloaded and unzipped on the correct kind of computer - they should work from the unzipped folder with no extra messing. I'm just using the built-in PICO-8 binary export, but please let me know if something is weird with them. It is a new enough feature.

If you have PICO-8 and want to check out the game's code/etc. or just play it in the 'real thing', download either leafblower.p8 or leafblower.p8.png to your pico-8/carts directory, then load from within the game with 'load leafblower'.
