EDIT: Don't shoot me guys, I didn't necropost. There was a glitch or something with this post that caused it to be reposted today. I wrote and posted this reply on the day the guy asked the question. Not today. Don't know if it's something worth investigating. Ah, that would be my bad. Bumping thre...

Man, that is really cool to see. Congratulations on the steam release!

EDIT 2: The map image has to be a square, right?

For now, yes.
I'm already working on it right now, so hopefully it'll be fixed quite soon!

EDIT: It is now fixed! You can check out the newest version at github!

it's like raycasting(is it?) more in-depth explanation to each function perhaps will help alot? It's actually more like 3d projection, but instead of an actual z value, the screen's y-position is used. The further up the screen, the further the points on the texture. z = screen_y x/z y/z That is ba...

It was an approximation, but i'm still surprised i didn't catch that! Sounds like it would be the case!

Borrowing retrotail's fast shader code, i've decided to create a library that helps the mode 7 effect become much more accessible. The mode 7 plane is well documented, but sprites were a big difficulty. After hitting that wall myself, i've finally figured it out, so i hope playmat helps you out too!...

Just made this, more could definitely be done but i'll do that when i don't feel tired. It was really fun to make, though! Guidelines: Ship speed isn't capped, but otherwise follows perfectly. Extras: Uses delta time. 929 Bytes L=love;G=L.graphics;R=L.math.random;W,H=G.getDimensions()h="fill&qu...

tetris could be fine, though i'm not sure a <1K implementation is possible I don't think it's possible. I have made it to 1,223 bytes, but it seems to be around the limit before you have to start sacrificing some core features. If anybody really does want to try, then you can have a look at my try ...

I tried for Tetris once, it is really hard.
Nontheless, i think a clone of Asteroids or Space Invaders could be a good choice.

Thats alright, i actually wish these kinds of challenges went on for longer!
It was a pretty clever solution, albeit a little lame.
