  Saw this post on Reddit for a voxelish method to simulate 3d:

  https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/commen ... e_creator/

  Its fairly easy to do, however there's a lot of overdraw, and I remembered Ashley had a go at an optimization to help with that:

  request-for-feedback-front-to-back-renderer-performance_t148692?&hilit

  But it was a no go.

  So I was wondering if it's time to have another go at it, or perhaps we should look for a shader method to help?

  There are several, but they do things in diferent ways.

  Not all of them are for generation.

  Nwjs is uses the Chrome framework, so it's like having a browser included with your game.

  The lightest method for Windows desktop would be Windows 10 universal apps which you can sideload.

  You might check out some of the sound generation plugs.

  You would have to learn how to get acceptable results, but in turn your downloads would be greatly reduced.

  Also tilemaps assume you have a grid to work with.

  If you have used subpixel placement you should probably go with sprite instancing.

  Target self means it's going to go to a new url, and leave the current one

  You can't change your shirt, if it's at your house, and you are at the neighbours.

  OK. I know alpha uses a value of 1 to 0, so I thought that might be what you were seeing.

  The demo should be very different.

  I changed the fullscreen to outer, so there should now be no crop bars.

  If you still see them, then you might clear your browser cache.

  Honestly I think he should remove all the fiddly bits, and make everything a behavior that the users create.

  Yes even for layers.

  Want a layer to be transparent on start?

  Make a behavior, give it a flag to "member" on reload.
