Wow, this is really an app that is absolutely great. You can say it's a must have app. You have already indicated that you want to add some playgrounds. So my suggestions will be the things you want to do anyway. But I will name them in spite of that. :D
These are the Playgrounds I would still like to see.
2D/3D Physics Playground.
Tween Playground
3D Particle Playground.
Maybe a Sound Playground.
Regarding the font size - yes, it is a bit small. I work with a 4K screen so everything seems very small. But I can manage.
The playgrounds orbit and wave ... - is nice to see how it works. But I don't know what to use it for.
The GUI is this also your OryUI? Or is it a different development?
Thanks for the positive review. I had a go at text and sprite tweens before the jam ended but there isn't much you can do with those really when you look at the commands I.e. change color, size and angle. It probably needs like a full blown tween editor to be useful, but tweens is on the list. Just got to work out how I can make it useful.
The sin/cos part is something I always forget or have trouble with, I don't normally orbit something continuously but I was hoping it would help someone, and maybe myself in the future. I thought the waves would be useful for flying games or space games where the enemy ships move in a wave across the screen.
The particles editor is no doubt the most useful part so far.
As for the UI, it's not OryUI as that was designed for mobiles. The UI shown was built from scratch within the jam time, but is super messy codewise, and would be a nightmare to keep working with so I'm currently rewriting the UI so that I can at least rebuild the playground app again and add in the new stuff alot easier.
nice look and subject matter. the particle playground will prove useful to me so thanks for that! my only complaint is the UI/text size where it's almost "tiny" for me and difficult to make out which slider does what. alas, grabbing a control and playing with it solves that. i know you have more toys to bring to the playground so looking forward to what the next versions brings to the lot!
It was programmed so that changing the text size value in one place would change it everywhere, I just never got around to creating a settings page.
