Graphics

Rendering is a crucial part in the brainGDX framework. libgdx already provides commands to render textures, sprites, particles and animations on the screen. The problem is when it comes to more complex examples:'

• how to render a village with 25 different NPCs without writing 25 Java classes?
• how to change the appearance of game objects dynamically?
• how to apply shaders onto game objects?

This chapter focues on the following aspects:

• Rendering displaying pixels onto the screen
• Game Camera using a virtual camera
• Render Pipelines how things are rendered onto the screen
• Shaders modifying pixels onto the screen
