sorry, I'm a bit rusty on computer graphics. what's the easiest way to color a grayscale bitmap? I'm assuming using the

ColorFilter

but what to use as matrix?

🎉 Released 1.13.0.0

A new video arrived. Let us show you, how KorGE handles resolution, aspect ratio, resizing and the coordinate system

Hello everyone. I stumbled upon the Korge engine when someone posted about the Koge engine (which has since changed name to something completely different). I was just fascinated by the fact that you guys had made a game engine targeting native, which seems super cool to me. I still dabble with libgdx and will continue to do so... but I like what I see.

First questions first: Is anyone working on a ECS for this? I haven't even checked the most basic tutorial so I have to read up more... Anyways, have a great day, guys!

Do we have hot reloading in Korge?

Offropic: Do any of you use anything special as a keyboard ?

anyone has used vscode for Korge? I am really not loving using a full IDE like intelliJ.

I am struggling somewhat with skinning my ui elements. Here is how I added a skin;

val uiAssets = resourcesVfs["buttons.png"].readNativeImage()
        val newSkin =  DefaultUISkin.copy(
                normal = uiAssets.sliceWithSize(0, 0, 1024, 64),
                over = uiAssets.sliceWithSize(0, 128, 1024, 64),
                down = uiAssets.sliceWithSize(0, 192, 1024, 64),
                backColor = DefaultUISkin.backColor.transform(ColorTransform(0.7, 0.9, 1.0))
        )
        var playButton = textButton(256.0, 32.0) {
            text = "Play"
            skin = newSkin
            position(views.actualVirtualWidth/2 - 128, views.actualVirtualHeight/2 - 64)
            onClick {
                  sceneContainer.changeToAsync<PlayScene>()
            }
        }

Unfortunately the button skin is not scaling correctly. the button atlas has slices of 1024x64 size which I suppose is pretty large. the skinned buttons are getting rendered weirdly. This is how the button looks in game;

I think I will put down some of my questions in the forum as well. 🙂

KorGE 1.13.2.0 released!

I’m so excited for the jam start tonight. I’ll be around to help with any occurring events. Let’s get started !!! We have around 20 participants. That’s a good number for the first jam. You have a real chance for the prizes but also a fair amount of competition.

0:01 CET

🎉 Just released KorGE

1.13.2.2

- Please use this version for the JAM

Free your updating loop from the executing machine's FPS:

I dont see any mention of the Jam on r/Kotlin or in the main Kotlin geneal channel

Just updated KorVI adding support for JS. Now you can play videos on korge JS: https://samples.korge.soywiz.com/korvi/index.html

Just released KorGE 

1.13.2.3

Just released Korge

1.13.2.4

Hey guys how’s it going with the jam? Do you face any issues that we should address ? Can we help you in any way with your games ?

Any recommendations on basic zooming in and out? I'd prefer to avoid handling the position transformations myself. Pretty new to Korge so any resources are welcome 🙂

Hey I just started looking at Korge (not gonna participate in the jam unfortunately) but was wondering if anyone can pinpoint me in the right direction for the following things: 1. Can I toggle fullscreen through a button in game? I saw that I can specify it on game start but not if I can change it on runtime? 2. I saw that Korge offers a Scene system. I assume it works similar to the Phaser 3 scenese in which the usual game setup looks to have at least 3 Scenes. A Boot scene to load the assets for the loading screen. A loading/preloading screen that shows a loading indicator and then fetches all the assets and a Game screen that contains the actual game logic. Is this a workable approach for Korge as well and if yes how would you do the loading screen? And if I request a resource through

resourcesVfs

is that cached or do I need to build my own asset cache (like a lot of the C++ Game engines for example)?

To add to the above I am planning to primary release the game on the web. So JS full screen and resource preloading is important

How is the Jam coming along folks?

My UI components in the runJS are not visible. Sadly this prevents me from commit my game. It uses a client-server architecture with websockets, which I got only working on the Browser. So testing it on the JVM in a Singleplayer Demo mode works, but does't make sense for the gameplay.

Can we get a few more hours? I won’t tell to anyone, I promise. 😁🤪

KorGE Gamejam: We added 6 hours to the due time of KorGE gamejam. Its now on monday at 6:59 AM. Have fun
