KATAMAR1k

KATAMAR1K

An homage to KATAMARI DAMACY for Pico8 in 1021 bytes for the #PICO1k jam

Story

The King of all Cosmos was naughty again. He broke all the stars and sent you, the 5cm Prince, to earth with a Katamari ball to collect things of increasing size to build up a star and fix his mess

Controls

Use the LEFT and RIGHT arrows to steer the little Prince

Watch out! Things will fall off your Katamari ball if your try to collect something that is too big

Goal

Collect enough things with your Katamari ball to reach 64cm as fast as possible to please the King of all Cosmos.

Post a screenshot of your time on Twitter with the #PICO1k hash tag. Who knows, the King of all Cosmos might like it. 

PICO1k jam and technical limits

This game was made for PICO1k jam where the goal is to make a cool game, tool or demo for the PICO8 fantasy console in 1024 bytes maximum without any music or sprites. Everything must be done with 1024 bytes of code.

PICO8 is like a tiny retro computer with a screen of 128x128 pixels, 16 colors,  and chiptune sounds.

Source code

Unfortunately the audio stutters in the browser so you might prefer to copy/paste the source code below in your own Pico8 if at all possible, or try one of the executables for Windows, Linux, Mac or RaspberryPI
