Done.

I like this "Löve". Opted to extend the very basic framework that was in place already, rather than use Löve's particle system (this way is way more fun).

Woah, this looks nice!

[BlackBulletIV]

Great job! Especially considering it's procedurally generated. However I had to adjust your code to make the framebuffers' sizes a power of two (upping them all to 32x32). It doesn't seem to affect the display, it's just more transparent pixels so the graphics card can handle the framebuffer. I've attached a version with framebuffers at 32x32.

[Hideous]

You actually made all the particles off-center in the framebuffers there, so I went ahead and fixed my version so they spin a bit prettier.

It's here, at the same url as before.

[BlackBulletIV]

Good stuff. Although you missed this:

Code: Select all

chunkfb = love.graphics.newFramebuffer(30, 30)

I don't think I did anything to bad by bumping it up to 32 each.

[Hideous]

Damnit. Fixed. Also yeah it isn't that bad but it's bad enough for me to notice it (and the difference is a lot bigger on the smoke particles but they don't spin anyway).

[Taehl]

Pretty sweet. The whole "shockwave + fountain" thing is nice and new.

[BlackBulletIV]

That's funny, I don't even notice; oh well.

I somehow managed not to see the updates on this thread. Apologies.

I have included Hideous' entry on the entry list. I think the url is correct, but please do check just in case. I'm not including BlackbulletIV's po2 changes; please let me know if you want it included.

In any case, thanks for participating! We have a respectable number of entries already, and still a month (roughly) to go!

In other order of news, yesterday's post on Cliff Harry's blog speaks about the explosions in Gratuitous Space Battles. I've asked for a better screenshot of that particle editor, but so far he's ignoring me. :/

Hideous fixed them with that URL, so it's all cool.
