Game looks great. How many worlds is this supporting?

Too bad no controller support (unless a special key remapping program is used), but thats specifics of the pico 8 platform.

Thanks! The game generates new "cave" levels endlessly. No room to do any other themes I'm afraid without going multicart which I'm not a fan of (I like scoping things down, and with unlimited space projects never finish).

Controllers should work out of the box though. I've just plugged in a USB controller and it works.

Oh I think I did not hit the right keys my bad lol. How close did you get to the 8k tokens or that is rarely an issue with pico8?

Did you use same algo for generating rooms as the original?

Making the basic engine used up around half of the tokens. Than implementing enemies and various items took the rest. In the posted version I had like 10 or so to spare. :)

Yeah, the algorithm for room placement is more or less identical.
