【ツ】GS DEMO - Cover Flow

MarkOnTheIron

Hi,

I was working on a game that needed a cover flow effect in a level selection scene. I checked some demos that I saw here but they didn't worked well for my game. So I started by one of those and made one on my own. It's working pretty good so I decided to share it with you.

Here it is:

Yeah, i think cover flow is a vey cool system for menu. I created one yesterday for my game in around 1 hour comeetly from start and it works perfectly. Did you create this one with the swipe system?

MarkOnTheIron

Yes you swipe and it moves, like magic.

@SnapFireStudios and some other users in the past asked me how to slow down the scrolling.

At the moment the scrolling is directly linked to the touch/mouse position. To slow it down you need to go to the Camera actor and change this expression in the first Constrain Attribute behaviour:


With this:



You can change the 0.2 value to anything from 0 (no movement at all ) to 1 (like the original expression) to ∞ (this may cause your device to warp you to another universe).

@MarkOnTheIron - Thanks for the tip.

On more thing, After the user lets up the mouse button, I want the boxes to continue moving and decelerating for about .4 seconds before snapping to whichever box is closest.
How would you do that?

Thanks,

Then I fear that you will need to play a little with the Motion Linear X attribute. Using a "When touch is pressed" rule for the movement and adding in its otherwise section a brake rule.
