[Super-tux-devel] Flames

[Bill K. <nb...@so...>]

I think it'd be kind of funny if, when you hit an iceblock or snowball
with a fireball, they melt, or at least splash water drops as they fall
off the screen.

Other enemies, not made of ice/snow can burst into flames as they fall
off the screen.

It might be neat to add a 'flame' effect to the fireballs we shoot, the
evil rotating fireballs in the castle, and to any 'burst into flames' that
happen to enemies.

e.g., use a few other frames of animation, and increasing alpha transparency,
to really make it look neat.

So, rather than have a little curly red object fly out of Tux, it could
actually look more like fire.  (Perhaps simply trailing a few 'copies' of
the fireball -- say at 50%, 40%, 30%, 20% and 10% opacity -- would suffice!)


Just a thought! :)  I like effects. :)  (See the dust, water drips, and
crashing ice cubes in BoboBot ;^) )
