Looking for an image editing library

Post by bengal_cat »

Hi,

I'm making my first game using LÖVE2D. I wanted to implement a high score saving system and came up with a very obscure idea: editing random pixels' color values of the background sprite. All I need is a library that would allow me to access the file and edit it.

I saw that someone posted here about NekoLib, something that would fit this purpose very well, but it seems to be not available any more.

Do you know any small, simple libraries that would be useful?

Load image, Draw to a canvas, paint on top, get ImageData and write to file.

You have a fancy toolkit with openGl bindings - what do you need an image editing library for?

s-ol.nu /blog  -  p.s-ol.be /st8.lua  -  g.s-ol.be /gtglg /curcur

Code: Select all

print( type(love) )
if false then
  baby:hurt(me)
end

Exactly what is said above. All the stuff you need is included in Löve's basic functions. Play around. Start by doing everything listed above in that order. Look up ImageData on the Wiki if you need to.

Ok, I didn't know you could do that. Thanks!
