SpriteWorld is an extensive Open Source collection of powerful routines Mac programmers can use to implement smooth, fast sprite animation in games and other applications. Some of its features include: Support for Carbon development while still supporting "Classic" Hardware accelerated drawing (through OpenGL in Carbon and RAVE in Classic) An unlimited number of sprites of any size Time-based animation making it possible to have smooth animation independent of frame rate. Sprite storage in variety of formats (PICT or RLE resouces or any type of graphic file that Quicktime can handle) Pixel-precise collision detection Special effects via. custom blitters, including alphamasking, rotating, scaling and additive blending Fast scrolling Simple yet effective sound handling And much, much more! |
