how did you manage to get the pico-8 game into an exe

Is there a way to save the web version so that android devices can play offline? It runs fine online, but I can't do a long hold on the "Run Game" link to download it manually.

Very good game :)

Wow! It's really an amazing game. I really like it.

Cool game here's a speedrun

Bug Reports:

(1) Duplication Bug:

Any time you try to merge multiple stacks (via the Chest), if you select the second or later stack, the game will put/remove the items from the first stack it finds instead of the selected stack (using the count of the selected stack). Done right, it will put/remove the items without changing the stack count, allowing the player to infinitely duplicate any (stackable) items. (I figured this out when I ended up with so much inventory I could not even craft a new chest to hold all my items and had to restart my game--which leads me to the next bug....)


(2) Save/Load bug:

When saving/loading, it loses a lot of information about items placed on the map. In particular, anything to the left of the player on the same row is lost. Likewise, anything above the player is also lost. It is as if the game treats the players position as the start row/column, and loses anything prior. I am now in the habit of always moving to highest leftmost position before saving (I actually used bridges and dirt ground to ensure there is a spot that always comes before any other).


(3) Not really a bug, but a game play issue (and what led me to uncover the previous bugs):

Sitting idle for a long period of time generates so many resources that it becomes impossible to move or harvest/mine them all without inventory overload. I suggest two things: First, limit how many of each resource it will auto-generate. Second, add the ability to trash/destroy items not needed. I ended up expanding one island to a full screen size covered with chests filled will resources I had no use for.

I did it accidentally and its so annoying

Please tell me how to do that dupe bug pleaseeee I'm beg......

(1 edit)

I really advise you do not do it. Not because it is 'cheating', which I do not care if you do or do not -- but because it seriously breaks and bugs the game, making it unplayable. It really duplicates things... and duplicates them some.. and some more.. and some more.. until the end of time, causing your computer to run out of storage, memory, etc. Okay, that is a small exaggeration; You can always close the page / browser to stop it, but then you cannot play the game. So why do it?


Also, my post / comment (above) already said how to do it.

ok. I'm just a kid and I want to try everything

for some reason it is possible to infinitely dupe stone in a chest, may be possible with other items. this is done by trying to take it out: while there is stone added to my inventory, the original stone in the chest remains. destroying the chest fixes this issue.

on a perhaps related note, it seems that maximum sizes of stacks are jank


EDIT: it actually seems that this works if you have an item in your inventory AND in the chest.

Muito Bom!

i can't start the game

i found a dupe Bug XDDDDDDDDDDD

Tell me pls

I think I found another dupe glitch, for now only works for coal

I broke the game, the dupe glitch is now stuck in my inventory will download obs to show if it's still works after

I beat the game it took like four or five hours this game amazing the ending on amazing however the boat is a bit OP to get that’s what took the longest so yeah amazing game I made two videos of all of it on my YouTube channel not all of it but some of it and I just beat the game amazing game you did and you did a epic job on us and I would highly suggest like doing like add-ons or different versions of the games like different add-ons for more furthermore like worlds.

how do you get the sail for the boat?

Can you add more stuff? this game is pretty good, but when I finished the game, it's kinda boring. Also what does "New Game+" Mean?

can you make a android or apk version

Unfortunately not, but you can play on mobile here on itch or on newgrounds: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/764760

can you add a download of the wave sfx?

i finish the game he's so cool !

how do you get the sail?

how do i craft????

(+1)

Simple.. Just hold down X and then click the up arrow to craft. Then you can make a workbench and then place it down by clicking Z and open the workbench by clicking X

nevermind i figured it out

I downloaded the game yesterday and today I finished the first level of the game. Thank You again!!

(+1)

I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!!

(+1)

I am playing this game for hours now on the web version. Unfortunately, the game got stuck and now I can't play it on the web again unless I reload the page. And reloading will remove my progress. But it is ok, I will download the game now and then I will save my game by using the method KilluaSama had told. Thank You! This is an amazing game!!!

forager

ok

this game was super fun and relaxing

The save and load mechanic doesn't work for me

It works in the downloaded version. Make sure to save the string which you get in your clipboard so that next time you can paste the string into the game and not something else.

uhh i did ctrl c like a few times anddd

!! BUG REPORT !!

There's a bug with putting and out wood into a chest! It broke my save and lagged it out really bad because when you try to take out alot of wood from a chest, it duplicates it.

The same thing happened to me but, with coal. It happens when your inventory is full but you still keep breaking that item/object. And then when you try to put it in the chest, then it will glitch. That is why I always save my game before my inv gets full. Then if it glitches, I just restart the game and then load it again  :)

(+1)

But yes, it is a bug. That should not happen.

Yeah

This is amazing! Especially since it was done in PICO-8! :D

Just one more time that game ROKCS     ; )  

good game but i went to move before i went to save my save code and was still holding w so i lost all progress :'( but other than that it was agreat game.

PLEASE ADD AN UPDATE TO THE GAME.  I already thought of some stuff you could add(ex: Copper, Expanded Islands, Npc's, amongst other things.)

P.S. If you need Ideas you can just email me at

landon.parker@student.riverspringscharter.org

Thanks, Landon

(1 edit)

Maybe we could collab, I am a fellow Coder in training, I get trained from this site called Whitehat Jr.

Again if you want to collab email me at

landon.parker@student.riverspringcharter.org

Again Thanks, Landon

As much as I would love to update the game further, I was really pushing the token limit in PICO-8 and now there's no more room to add anything else. If I were to make the game any better with all the suggestions I've received from various people it would just become Forager, which is the game this is based on. I may do a sequel in the future with all new mechanics but that won't be for a while unfortunately.

I'VE SPENT HOURS ON THIS GAME AND IM WILLING TO SPEND MORE!!!

thanks for this awesome game. I'd like to send you some money but its expensive in my country so..... I made this save functionality instead.

its written in batch (windows) and has a line of powershell ( needs at least win 7 to work )

Im writing these instructions with the intention to help anyone setup this save functionality

  • save the code in a file named "Launch.bat" ( name is optional ) in the same folder as the game. some instructions (just in case)
  • open Launch.bat (this opens a console window. PLEASE DO NOT CLOSE IT.this console window should stay opened ) and also opens the game and waits till you quit/close the game
  • play the game and save before closing the game
  • the save data is automatically saved to a file named "_saveGameData" and the console window closes itself

when you re-open Launch.bat after this initial save, it automatically loads previous save data from the "_saveGameData" file into the clipboard which could be used at load game in menu

incase you have saved the game data somewhere else,

  • just create "Launch.bat" but dont open it yet
  • goto the place where you saved the game and manually copy it
  • open Launch.bat and load the game with your data
  • save before closing the game and Launch.bat will now take care of your progress

I'll be looking forward for your future games. again, thanks a lot for this game

Just played the game again and i love it so much

but still have to figure out how to load a game  

BURNER GAME 

It saves in a plaintext format and you can copy that text and "paste" it into the game to load it.  However, for some reason, I just found that it seems loading the game clears the islands of most resources (they do respawn of course), erases bridges, and turns the island land type to grass.  Not sure why; this may be a bug.

thanks !!  again : )   

Make the source code available, I would love that

This Game is AMAZING

great game! love the simple art and like the gameplay

I would love to see a Windows version of the game (downloadable).

Do you plan on updating the game?

(+1)

I've actually updated the game a few days ago adding a New Game+, which gives you more recipies and goals upon escaping the islands after crafting the boat.

I just uploaded windows, mac, linux, and raspi builds that you can download and play on your pc so you don't have to play in web only!

Would have liked an option to turn off screen shake.

(+1)(-1)

You can! It's in the options on the main menu :)

Amazing game 10/10!
