Hey there! I’m Ross McCormick, and I make tiny games in my spare time. https://rossmccormick.itch.io
Finally taken the plunge and started learning how to make a 3D raycaster #pico8
I made a bee game in 36 hours for DTJ36! 🐝 It's called... Bees Wax! (lol) 🧱 Place pieces of honeycomb 🐝 Get bees! 🌷 Place exits for the bees to get pollen 🍯 Honey!! Check it out here: lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=158322 Or find it directly in Pico-8 by running "load #beeswax"!
Really cool to see one of my games get featured on the Lexaloffle BBS! Thought it was fitting to revisit it and fix some potential softlocks, and add a checkpoint/save system so the game can now be completed over multiple play sessions if desired. www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=142... #pico8
Check this out. What you're seeing here is the original #Pico8 version of #Celeste ported & rebuilt from the ground up by "joshop" to run natively on the original #GameBoy A color DX version has also been teased. Get it here joshop.itch.io/celeste-game... #retrogaming #indiegame #homebrew #gaming

I finally got around to putting my Picotron port of Combat Chopper on Itch. Plays identically to the Pico-8 version but with higher res and better game controller support. This type of game suits Picotron quite well imo. Gives Amiga flight-sim vibes. tommulgrew.itch.io/combat-chopp...

Last year I started building a #Pico-8 prototype. Cyberpunk dungeon crawler. ASCII art graphics, bathed in bright terminal colors. You’re a hacker, got caught in a mainframe all Neuromancer style. Gotta fight intrusion countermeasures, escape the system. Might return to this at some point
We've been working on the updated Seal of Solitomb for a while, so just as a reminder: the original #pico8 version is still awesome, and still free-to-play here: krajzeg.itch.io/solitomb If you haven't played yet and are in the mood to solitaire-up some sweet monster combos, give it a whirl! 🌀

You can't actually collide with the space station yet, but this still looked kinda cool imo. #pico8
Made this cute tape player in picocad - it's so fun! 🥰 Music is a kinda j-pop inspired track I'm working on for a cool project 👀
Zombies Ate My Landlord is out! Itch: rossmccormick.itch.io/zombies-ate-... Lexaloffle BBS: www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=154... #pico8 #gamedev #indiedev
Happy #Screenshotsaturday! I'm still working on my #cozygame. I now have a fishing minigame, working and walking NPC's and finally an idea for a nice story. I will enjoy trying to make my farming/life sim feel distinct. No. 1 : You will start without a place of your own. #picotron #gamedev
the floatiest controls in the deep blue sea! working on a port of my #picotron game Inky the Squid for #playdate @play.date
Trying the new player movement and a quake level running on #Playdate With only a d-pad and two buttons, it's not easy to design 3D controls that feel good, but I think I'm getting there. I also started experimenting with jumping. I mean, Jumping Flash and Metroid Prime made it work, so why not? 😄
