A few (un)interesting facts about the Morphoza...
3371 butterflies were involved for create this production.
No butterflies were harmed in the making of this demo.
Final version doesn't require SDL (yeeeaaah) and uses Reggae for
playing music.
The demo allows to switch between window and fullscreen modes at any
time - just use RightCommand+F shortcut.
Devices used during creating the demo:
- PowerBook G4 with MorphOS 3.9-3.13,
- MacBook Pro mid 2012 with macOS 10.12-10.15,
- iPhone 6/8 with iOS 10-13,
- iPad mini 2 with iOS 10-12.
All 3D graphics (objects, scenes, animations) created in
Blender 2.78/2.79b for macOS and exported to internal formats
of the engine using Encore's plugins for Blender.
2D graphics created in:
- Pixelmator, Affinity Designer, GIMP, Inkscape for macOS,
- ImageFX, ArtEffect for AmigaOS/MorphOS.
Coded in C/C++ with:
- Scribble and Flow Studio with GCC 5/6/8 on MorphOS,
- Xcode 8/9/11 on macOS.
The demo uses Encore Engine 4.2.0 which has been developing by MDW since 2006.
This is very simple and lightweight engine which allows to create demos/games
for various platforms. However main target is new Amiga-like platforms
(called AmigaNG): AmigaOS4, MorphOS, AROS. Current version of the Encore
Engine requires simple C++ and old version OpenGL (fixed pipeline without
shaders support). These requirements could be changed in a future. It depends
on features of OpenGL implementations for supported platforms (especially:
MorphOS, AmigaOS4, AROS).
See you in our next productions...
