Pictures, emoji, drawings, and text, and the settings every object has: size, turn, mirror, transparency, and which one is in front.
Try each example, then copy the words under it and paste them to your AI. You can also send your AI the link to an example.
Everything on a Minimo screen is one of four kinds.
Pictures made for the game are the normal choice. The other three kinds have their own jobs.
Draw the player as a picture made for this game, in the same style as the rest of the art.
game.add(new ImageSprite(game, "star", x, y));Every phone draws emoji with its own font, so the same game looks different on an iPhone, an Android phone, and a Windows computer, and a symbol a device lacks shows as an empty box. Pictures made for your game look the same everywhere and give it its own style. Emoji are fine for trying an idea quickly.
Make every object in the game a picture in one art style, not an emoji.
Change how an object looks without changing its picture.
Show the star at 0.8 times its size, turned 0 degrees, and 100% visible.
star.scale = 0.8;
star.rotation = 0;
star.alpha = 100 / 100;An object can change its picture while the game runs: to animate a character frame by frame, or to show it powered up.
Animate the character by switching between its two pictures every 300 milliseconds.
let frame = 0;
game.addTimer(300, true, () => {
frame = 1 - frame;
hero.setTexture(frame ? "star" : "coin");
});When the character walks left, mirror its picture left to right.
crystal.flipX = true;Always draw the heart in front of the gem.
heart.layer = 2;
gem.layer = 1;
