Re: Dungeon Apprentice - a PICO-8 DM Tribute

But I am confused. Documentation for PICO-8 (https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php#m) says cartridges are 32KB, not 16kb. What am I missing? Yes, you're right. I've got myself a bit confused. There's 32kb of cart in total: 16kb (0x0 to 0x4300) of data which is "guaranteed" and just under ...

Dungeon Apprentice - a PICO-8 DM Tribute

I'm in the early stages of writing a DM-style game for the PICO-8 fantasy console: https://drakeblue.com/news_content/da.gif Working title is Dungeon Apprentice. I'm open to any pun-tastic suggestions though. As it's 33 years since Dungeon Master was first released today (I think) I thought it might...

Re: So, tell us about yourself...

I guess it'll depend on when I'm next stuck on a phone call with nothing else to do... Journeyman, I couldn't help noticing your odd choice of sleeping place. On the last trip through the demon director, after getting a bit gung ho with the Horn of Fear and Cross of Neta trying to get the rock monst...

Re: So, tell us about yourself...

Also, now I've finally been "allowed" to look at the maps, it's clear that I'd have saved a lot of reloads if I'd found that back way in. Ah well. Maybe I'll have another go some time.

Re: So, tell us about yourself...

You're far too kind about my random clickings :D. They're a corona side effect. They look like the DM ones because I just altered those (in a way I had to - see below). The CSB ones, at least for those characters, seemed a bit OTT for my taste and the method to change them didn't play nice with past...

Re: So, tell us about yourself...

And thus Chaos was defeated once more... Took quite a few attempts to get past all the demons and zytazes (zytazi?) on the top floor although (ironically after last time) I stumbled on the key carrier really early on only to struggle with finding the way to the pit for most of an hour :) Nevertheles...

Re: So, tell us about yourself...

I realised I'm actually on Dain not Neta yesterday - just made it to the Demon Director again. I have so many keys I'm struggling to carry them all, but it took forever to work out how to get the one I needed (winged key); I ended up walking almost back to the junction and going through all of it ag...

Re: So, tell us about yourself...

Hello, thought I'd finally say hello. I first found this place at least 15 years ago when I first revisited DM... and finally finished it. Only took me 15 years. I've been struggling through CSB for the last few weeks (or 30 years depending on how you measure it) so I've come back again. We had an A...
