kinda working topdown portal thing, w.i.p.
« on: December 12, 2015, 01:45:25 pm »

I was a little surprised to not find any top-down portal anything, just side-scrolling. Functionally the same i suppose. Anyhow, I took a stab at it and came up with a working shader, and a view transition system that mostly works.
Thought I'd share it before I possibly mangle it.  https://github.com/bobbysoon/topdown_portals

Draw lines with the mouse to place the portals. Move with WASD. Pan view with the middle mouse button. Scroll wheel to zoom.

Nice idea... :)
Do you plan to develop a game around top-view portals?

No real plan. Just tinkering. Generally, I aim to make something Assault-like.
