RE: Candy Corn Trees - vince - 10-12-2025
nice modding as usual. Will you be doing a game for halloween or nah?
RE: Candy Corn Trees - bplus - 10-12-2025
Wait... Sudoku with a Halloween Theme was not enough? I confess I've been playing it and loving it recently helping me through stressful times. Just throw on some tunes and play Sudoku and forget worries until You Tube starts another commercial. I get barraged with Supplements and Health ads, they have me nailed!
But yes! I sure would like to do more. Maybe we can do up Pinball Molly with Halloween theme too.
I wouldn't mind one bit if I got that flipper action improved.
BTW while doing Corn River I ran into an old problem and I have simplified a little code demo for showing how to distribute objects over a landscape such that they are smaller and way more numerous towards the horizon and larger and far fewer as they go towards the bottom of the screen. Horizon infinitely far and infinitely dense extreme forground maybe one object blocking a lot of the view!
I am working up this demo next because it is very interesting problem that has popped up a few times when I do a field of flowers or a banner or a landscape with trees. For Corn River I just doubled the size from far bank of river to nearest in perspective at bottom of screen.
