So I saw
this video on youtube and I was like I can totally make that in LÖVE, so I did.

Disclaimer: This game has no menus, lacks score display, lacks music, et.c.
I also have no plans to finish it. To top everything off, the code was written when I was tired. Expect mindfuck.

... Did you use a perpendicular function for bouncing the balls?
Code: Select all
if x<0 or x>width then
vx=-vx
end
if y<0 or y>height then
vy=-vy
end
Your code:
Code: Select all
if x ~= self.position.x or y ~= self.position.y then
local r = math.atan2((winmid - self.position):reverse())
self.directionAngle = r + (math.random()-0.5)*math.pi
self.directionVector = Vector:new(math.cos(self.directionAngle), math.sin(self.directionAngle))
end
You were right when you said "mindfuck". O_O

If you look closely, you'll see that his version introduced a random element, presumably to make the whole deal more interesting and/or silly.

Even though I said I wouldn't work on this, I did.
I added a primitive menu along with two extra gamemodes, "extreme" and "epilepsy".
Also, there's now a game over screen.
CATCH THOSE DÖTS

Crazy!
It fails, though. Collision is really inaccurate (sometimes I'm making this nice little Venn diagram with the yellow dude, without scoring a point). Also, in epilepsy mode, if you end on black, the score is unreadable.
