Tales from the TinkerShed

The Flowlab Trello lists Vectors as a Sprite Editor Suggestion that Grazer might consider
Could this mean we could draw lines on screen? That could be used for all sorts of cool visual effects.

Not by Tinkersmith, but very tinkery related.
Here is a PointToLine bundle.

Using 2 points and an angle, you can create a line and measure the distance to the line.

Just to keep track of my own stuff, my entry to the 2022 Flowjam.

Had not much time, but didn’t want to miss the opportunity to at least submit something :slight_smile:

For the curious ones, here are all levels:

Creating them took me nearly as much time as the game itself, HAHA

Nice, I love how deceptively complex it is; this is the sort of game Flowlab needs more of…

If so, i NEED that because this soundtrack is flippin amazing and i want to pull some ideas i can use for my future projects, and no that doesn’t mean imma steal the song, silly :upside_down_face:

Yes, he made it on Jummbox.
Had to ask first, but he’s cool to share :slight_smile:

DraftyScienceCoat75 has been messing around with some 3D shenanigans, they actually got in game objects working, it’s pretty impressive.

I would like it to be known that I was the root cause of this. So when DraftyScienceCoat75 makes an amazing game it was all because I asked how to improve the Wolfenstein effect and Drafty just did a 10x better job than I did. But seriously, really impressive and I can’t wait for the finished product.

You’ve started a flowlab revolution. Before you know it, 90% of games on flowlab are going to be 3D games

Haha, nope. This isn’t the first time we’ve had a Flowlab revolution. They die in a week or two, if it’s crazy enough it’ll be a month.

Hehe 3D is something that will slowly improve with more examples.
