General
  • Load up Impact++ by requiring 'plusplus.core.plusplus' instead of several separate modules
  • Impact++ now appropriately handles various game screen sizing options, including:
    • fixed pixel size (static scale)
    • pecent of screen (static scale)
    • minimum number of pixels in view (dynamic scaling)
  • Impact++ now allows per entity scaling, which can be particularly useful for UI and text when dynamically scaling
  • Impact++ now works for both 2D sidescrolling and top-down (see ig.CONFIG.TOP_DOWN)
  • Added SUPER COLLIDER! demo as a test suite / kitchen sink (~130 features as of release)
  • Added more warnings and tips to docs to avoid confusion.
