Title: Beginning Flying Example
Post by: SierraKen on January 20, 2020, 04:40:30 pm

This is just a straight-forward slow down and speed up flying example. You can't turn with this but feel free to add or change anything on it. It's just something I was playing around with the other day and decided to put it on here. The 2D objects on the ground are randomly generated as you fly over them. It shows the speed indicator in the top left corner. I thought of this when I checked out a Starfield I made many months ago with the help of you guys. I changed some things around and cut it in half and made each object move the same speed. I just like how the view of the objects go past you. This could be the start of any type of flying game or simulator or even the start of driving or walking on the ground.

Hi Ken,

You might try to make the object get bigger as it approaches the bottom of the screen.
