PicoCyberbank is a cyberpunk remake of West Bank Bank Panic by Damien Hostin, on twitter yourykiki (The Lurking Engine)
Goal :
you must help the bank collect the credchips by shooting the baddies and survive 9 days ! Beware some people are not as they seem to be at first !
Controls - keyboard or gamepad :
Use arrows to shoot left center or right
Use button 1 (x) or 2 (c) to change the doors you are looking
Behind the scene
This project was less complicated than Brutal Pico Race, I designed it to work with my kids... But actually, it was way too complicated for my little beginners, and they gave up after coding the openclose system for the doors :D It is also why there is a lot of functions in french. They came back for beta testing !
I keep some interesting parts for myself, such as the plasma doors, using the PX8 compression and a coroutine queue to load people graphics at runtime, a bunch of sprite picked up randomly to build the people, and little hidden surprises on the intro scene to reflect how far you went in the game !
Once again, great thanks to the pico 8 community !
Have fun !
