Hi,

I've been working on a silly little toy. I made a lighting demo.

Here's a screenshot:

Here's a GIF (I don't know if it will work):

(Here's a direct link: https://i.imgur.com/iokxEm4.gif)

There's an 'ambient' light in the middle of the area and a light in the lower-right hand corner.

It should run just fine. I've tested it on FreeBSD via Wine and Windows 10. It may work on Linux without Wine, but I don't know how Mono works on Linux. I included the so files anyway.

I'm looking for general feedback about how it looks. Pay attention to the lighting on the little knight. When he rotates, it's not a simple flip...

This demo shows off: 1) lighting 2) procedural terrain 3) vector graphics. There's also an entity-component-system (for rendering and updating), a simple controller system, and collision detection, but those aren't exactly visible. Pretty neat for a couple weeks of work, I think.

Download link (or click the paperclip [or do nothing, your choice]). Run 'Dormouse.Lacklore.exe' I suppose.

Thanks!

Thank you! I'm going for a Paper Mario aesthetic. The game is going to be about a book that has the ability to shape the world...

Did you notice the shadows on the knight moving around?

See the shadows are on the left when a light is to the right:

And vice versa:

{"name":"611147","src":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/f\/0\/f0eb1ece6a6ab11857e84361ce74b490.png","w":1290,"h":749,"tn":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/f\/0\/f0eb1ece6a6ab11857e84361ce74b490"}

It's not that noticeable but I think it's pretty neat.

I noticed, but only after you said it was a lighting demo
