Tomb of the Mask

Changelog

Version 1.1

TODO

• Implement static tilesheets for player
• Finish new render system
  • Color layer (+ rising water)
  • Invert tilesheets so they hide color layer instead of adding color

07/01/22

• New render method that is SIGNIFICANTLY faster
  • Image scaling is done in the Cell and Entity classes per tile/entity
  • Scaled tiles are drawn to the full-size layer
  • Now, only tiles that need to be updated are scaled each frame instead of the entire image
  • Alltogether, the game runs at 3-4 ms per frame instead of 13-18 ms

06/30/22

• Created the TimeTracker class for determining the cause of lag
• Changed image scaling method to increase speed
• Image scaling still takes the majority of each tick (12 of 15 ms)

06/29/22

• New Frame class handles the frame layers and rendering
  • This unfortunately added a ton of lag (idk why) that needs to be reduced

06/28/22

• Entity images also use static tilesheets now

06/??/22

• Cell images are now stored in static tilesheets instead of individual files

Version 1.0 (AP Comp Sci Final Project Version)

• It works! (intro, menu, some levels, in-level graphics + animations)
