One button tiny physic-based platformer made in Pico 8 with code under 1024 compressed bytes, made for #Pico1k jam 2023

Use RIGHT ARROW to accelerate when on the ground
Release RIGHT ARROW to fall faster when in the air
Press UP ARROW to start a new level
Press ENTER and select SEED in the menu to start from level 1 if you want a fixed series of levels

Number on top left is a timer for your run of the level, counted in frames (at 60fps), on top right is the sum for all the levels in your session. For example a casual run of all the seeded levels from 1 to 10 took me 14027 frames. My PB for level 1 is 1071.

Source as p8 are available on https://nusan.itch.io/smooth-ride in two versions, the "comment" version is what I coded with additional comments, so it's readable but the "minimal" version uses a tool (https://thisismypassport.github.io/shrinko8/) to makes it even tinier, it's not readable but it fits into the 1k compressed bytes target
