this was awesome, marvellous soundtrack and solid 90's haujobb vibes :)

you guys just really wanted to win? not only does it contain some of the most solid pico8 effects (like in: "shouldn't pico-8 CPU be somehow limited and wtf am I seeing") and there's pretty serious tech inside (rocket? check. module player of sorts abusing the "secret" PCM output of pico8? check.) but on top of that, it has good flow (that eye transition - so fucking great).

I'm so happy the fantasy console compo turned out this great.

I'm super happy that Hellfire finished the demo on the party. Such a great one, even if the the original demo edit and content is even more mind blowing. At the end it is just important that we finally released it and pleased the crowd as it seems. Thanks again Hellfire. You are crazy! Ready for the next step as soon you are. Jade.

Really impressive! But can't manage to make it work on pico8 after load, the run command not work.

Is there anything special to do with all this carts :) ?

How's that even possible

I'm planning to do a little write-up on the visual and audio part of this demo.
And also to clean up the source code for the individual parts, as right now some of the code (included in the zip) is already minified and probably not very helpful to look at.

But before that we'd like to concentrate on a final version which also contains the end-part which we had to skip last minute before the deadline and made us improvise heavily on the ending...

However, what really helped us a lot create this was:
- Adapting Rocket (thanks Kusma and Emoon) to work with the Pico8 serial port. So we could store all sync stuff in cart data and didn't have to code everything manually, saving us a lot of code tokens.
- Using the not-very-documented PCM channel (running at 8bit mono 5.5kHz) to mix 4 lo-fi channels (basically a 4chn Amiga MOD) in addition to the Pico8 sounds.
And as I was too lazy to provide proper tools, Virgill had to work in two trackers simulteanously to create the soundtrack...
- Still remembering bit-fiddling tricks from the 90s which are otherwise totally useless today but still work pretty well to process many 4bit pixels in parallel.

Also thanks to the team, you are all awesome.

Outstanding haujobbesque demomaking skills, and you demonstrated that things can look and sound good on this satire of a platform, even running fluently in a browser while doing a Gentoo world update on a >10 yo computer. Thanks! :-)

Download the zip, go into the "source" folder, open "the mind.p8" with a recent version of Pico8 and type "run" to start.
added on the 2024-05-01 08:58:00 by hfr hfr
There's btw a free online Pico8.
And you can also load the demo directly from the BBS:
Code:load #themind1 run

(the first run takes a couple of seconds loading time)

So much stuff that it's unbelievable that it's pico-8, but above all I'm so happy to see PCM and native SFX in sync. Awesome work!
