And so it begins... A new, planned to be tiny, RPG. Will see where it will lead, expect very slow pace of development. 🙂 https://mini.fantasysphere.games/

Hey! I was reading your status reports on Fantasy Sphere. Good luck with the new approach! I will be following 🙂

Added changelog at https://mini.fantasysphere.games/changelog/.

Figured it out I think!
tall forge
Started adding collisions.

Looking good! How about this water pool? 😄
tall forge
Not sure yet. Either swimming, or I will just block it.
Considering it's meant to be first tiny game, maybe block it... But if it ends up being... useless anyway, I can just add swimming.
And, the most simple and ideal solution – I will remove it entirely. 😄
Still gotta optimize the collisions, but my first attempt didn't work out as well as I hoped.
tall forge
Optimizing the collision polygons.

hi @tall forge are you using any polygon collision library? Wondering how to do polygon collision with arcade physics instead of spamming a bunch of rectangles
tall forge
I'm using https://github.com/snowkit/differ, which is basically https://github.com/jriecken/sat-js.

oh seems like you'll have to do your own sliding collision when the sprite hits it 😦
or are you able to integrate it with arcade physics?
tall forge
I'm not using arcade physics, it would be an overkill for this.
You run the collision check, you apply the separation, done.
tall forge
Can hide behind trees now (depth sorting achieved)!

isn't the polygon physics checking little bit overcomplication for this? simple AABB collision check which arcade physics offers is enough for your game & more performant
tall forge
It's not physics, just simple SAT separation. Also very simple and fast. Probably faster and simpler than Arcade.

Hiding in Reeds. 🥷
tall forge
Reeds shader.
tall forge
Out of my way!
tall forge
Take that!

Hey! Stop running around!
