Earth still rotating the wrong direction.

Not very realistic, is it?! I've updated the github repository so it rotates correctly. Thanks!

Thanks! It's a very simple shader so I imagine very little. It creates a matrix in runtime instead of using one through a uniform, so that can be optimized. Your suggestion led me to cache the atmosphere in the canvas to greatly improve performance - it was capped at 30 fps for 12 planets with highd...

screenshot.png It rotates, and has a shadow, atmosphere, cloud layer. The above screenshot runs at 1024 * 768, with highdpi = true on 2016 Macbook. I stumbled across a Russian article on how to render realistic 2D planets (https://habrahabr.ru/post/248381/). I couldn't find an english version of th...

Looks good code. Will keep this in mind.

I saw Elm's time travelling debugger http://debug.elm-lang.org/edit/Mario.elm , and wondered if it's possible to build it for Lua & Love2D. So I built a prototype. https://github.com/meric/l2l/blob/master/samples/sample09 You can edit the game's code (in mario.lua) while the game is running, and...

In the game, the angle of the contrail follows that of the spaceship. You could almost use a static image to model it, except it is constantly in flux, in a constant state of motion. Just like Uradamus' demo. Here is my take on that particle effect. I am using two particle systems, one in the backgr...

I saw this cool spaceship-engine-contrail effect in a game called "starsector". Screen Shot 2014-04-15 at 12.53.13 am.png I was trying to recreate it in love2d but am quite far from it: Screen Shot 2014-04-15 at 12.59.40 am.png How would I do something like the first screenshot? :brows: Th...

I've got a complete textfield here.

See your URL bar textfield? Works the same, with mouse highlight, etc.

Use it, and save some effort. Oh and there's checkboxes and buttons and frames in there too.

This sounds like a good challenge and I'd be interested in working on it - if you think I'm up to it. I know the in and outs of lua and I (only) made http://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2574 and http://textbookcentral.com.au/ . (python/django) You can also look at more of my code here: ...

I got to the end and won! :D The trick is surviving until you get the "hundred balls everywhere" bonus. They'll attack the blocks from above, bouncing repeatedly; So many blocks will break you'll get more "hundred balls everywhere" bonuses. Combine it with the "explosive bal...
