The Shadows

Posted 24th Oct 09, by 3kliksphilip

Just a quick note about the shadows, I have a separate layer for shadows in the game. This is necessary because otherwise the shadows will overlap each other, creating darker areas. This looks messy, while moving them all to the same layer and setting the layer's transparency to 128 lets me be messier with the shadows with out any one noticing.

So far I don't know another game to use this method, which is a shame because it really works.

See what happens normally here...

That does work - i've never thought of that yet it's such a simple method!

Genius!

Not keen on the snow, looks more like white sandpaper.

Using what looks to be the MS Paint spray can for a soft texture such as snow is generally a bad idea unless you use a softer gray that blends nicely with the white.
