Introduction

This is my dynamic shadows & lights library for löve, it uses the MIT license so you can use it for almost any project.

Features

• Using canvases to optimize the drawing process
• Radial blur & some extra shaders
• Top view 3D shadows (the casted shadow is generated according to the altitude of the light and the body)
• Polygon & Circle shapes
• Stars (lights unable to cover rooms)
• Rooms (dark sectors which stars cannot cover)
• Normal maps

Installation

Just drag the "shadows" folder inside your project folder (notice that the root of this repository is the shadows folder).

Usage Example

local Shadows = require("shadows")
local LightWorld = require("shadows.LightWorld")
local newLightWorld = LightWorld:new()

function love.draw()
	newLightWorld:draw(0, 0)
end

function love.update()
	newLightWorld:update()
end
