lue - a color manager with hue effects!

[Ulydev]

Hello!

I'm wrapping up some tools I've been using in my games as libraries so everyone can use them.

Here's lue, a hue manager that lets you quickly set up disco aesthetics

Code: Select all

local lue = require "lue"

lue:setColor("my-color", {200, 200, 200})

function love.update(dt)
  lue:update(dt)
end

function love.draw()
  love.graphics.setColor(lue:getColor("my-color"))
  love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 140, 120, 40, 40)
end

I like the style! It's very unique and surely would help give more catchy graphics to my games.

Looks good! There's a typo in the readme, though. "lem" should be "lue", I presume.

I belive you could replace the lue:update function with this:

Code: Select all

self.hue = (self.hue-1)%255+1 

I'm not sure though, you should test it out.

Hello!

I've added some new features to lue. It can now be used as a real color manager.

The old lue:getColor function has been renamed to lue:getHueColor, because now getting a color doesn't necessarily mean hue.

Indeed, you can now create a new color with

Code: Select all

lue:setColor("my-color", {255, 255, 255})

and then, for example, fade it out with

Code: Select all

lue:setColor("my-color", { color = {255, 255, 255, 0}, speed = 5 })

That's one of the features that have been added. I recommend you read the README on Github to understand all the changes.

Thanks!
