can't you just ;
copy imgdata to new framebuffer, set the color black and then use the alpha to control lighting levels,draw a poly over the tile, then use that to make quads from?

It's not a math thing. It's the way you store the angle information. You calculate the difference between previous and current "x" position and "y" position. The problem is, when you go only on the "x" position that "y differential" doesn't dissapear, so it k...

I was using loves great framework design to make a webserver that had really easy to learn hooks that allowed you to nativle parse lua scripts and allow for a GUI for setting change not to mention full cross platform.

I know I'm late in answering but I would use small transparent sprites to darken the area opposite the light source . depending on the sprite size, 5 (representing head/core arms legs) darkening sprites making a vague shape. this way you can easily move the shadow and provide rough animation to it (...

As just a quick little example: local samples = math.floor(.2 * 44100) --.2 seconds long local data = love.sound.newSoundData(samples, 44100, 16, 1) for i = 0,samples do data:setSample(i, (math.random()*2-1)*(1-i/samples)) end staticBurst = love.audio.newSource(data) That will give you a burst of s...
