Fade out image
« on: November 21, 2013, 05:08:49 pm »
I've got a loaded .png intro image. What's the easiest way to make it fade out to black using timers?

I want to try to avoid real-time image manipulation if possible as I find it resource intensive.

You can simply call setColor on a sprite and step by step decrease the alpha value or the all the color values, till you reach black.
