Cool memory game.
I like the possibility of having more than a single pair.
Levels + lives are also nice.

I'd tweak controls a bit. Changing between keyboard and mouse is breaking immersion.
And clicking button after choosing a pair seems unnecesairy as you cant take any action.
Small delay would be preferable.

PICO8 ftw (Celeste❤️)

@namespacev Yes, I've seen some people trying the game, that all seemed to expect that. I might change it. But I don't know if that is considered a small bugfix allowed after deadline.

Nice little pico-8 memory game. As soon as the match 3 came in to play I was done for. Thanks for the entry!

Beautiful little game but gets super hard! Is it statistically feasible to beat all 7 levels?

Turns out I can only remember two things at once also :grin:. Nice work, a simple well executed concept.

@fredrik-andersson Yes, it should be hard enough to at least challenge everybody a little, but some will still finish the game is first try. Most people seem to get at least quite far in their first attempt.

I really liked the art for this one, especially the title card. Effects of the symbols spinning round were good too. I didn't get to far but seemed like a good execution of a simple concept :)

from a pico 8 lover, i love the art very gothic and all the little ideas around memory (levels, trio, life...) are nice and the game is polished and clean...well done

@piero-pbes-studio Thanks! I’m really glad to hear people enjoying it. It was important to me, to make something that could feel done, I didn’t want just another unfinished project.

I think this is the first Pico-8 game I played that uses the mouse lol
Loved the art! I wasn't able to beat the game but was fun to try to beat it a couple of times.

This is a good example how you can breath new life into (very) old genre. Very good execution and polish.

It was quite hard to tell the difference between some of the pentagrams. I guess this was intentional but since Pico-8 has such a low resolution, those images are not too far from each other.

Very nice memory game, the retro Gameboy aspect is very well done! Great job!

Simple memory game with retro art style. Played it several times but still couldn't complete it all the levels hahaha... Well done!

Interesting take on a classic. I failed horribly unfortunately, kinda embarassing :sweat:

Very hard. There was a level which had 3 slighlty different star pictures.

I think the game was incredibly well made! It was difficult in a way I wouldn't expect which provided a nice challenge. However, it was super nerve-wracking that we only had so many lives and if you are unlucky you can lose 4 of them before you can even get any pairs right. Not to mention the match 3...
Still, really cool game!

took me a while but I beat it! I think there was a dip where I got really bad at memory games but i redoubled my efforts and made it through. :sweat_smile: I liked the art, could have been cool to see how the memory game itself work it's way into defeating the enemy (i guess while it is also summoning it?) - perhaps the extra moves you have at the end gives you the "final attack" as a final result of your memory prowess. nice work!

Simple memo game, pretty 8-bit graphics & sound. Try to port it on mobiles
