Processing Rectangles
Instead of Love2d and Lua, I wanted to try Processing and play around using Java to generate stuff. It’s pretty neat and has some overlap in basic functionality, but is missing the more game-centric out of the box features, like better touch support, physics, particles, and gamepad, but it does have easier to use camera…

Random Walk
I was playing with love2d some more and made a simple random walk implementation. It starts with a random spot in a grid, and moves a single square in a random direction for many iterations. This type of algorithm can be used to generate caves and other things for games where continuity is needed. Github…

It was neat to experiment with the physics engine using some simple shapes. It was pretty easy to jump in to using, but creating more complex shapes seems difficult. I haven’t…
