Now, before you start drawing anything, you have to decide how many layers of parallax you are going to have in your game. I’m making sure that the background of the new canvas is set to transparent. Therefore, the final resolution of background layers will be 320×224. The reason for this is that I would like to add a nice and subtle “drop-down” effect when the player enters the level. To comply with that specification I’ll create an empty canvas in Aseprite with that size, but will add 32 pixel to the height.
If you read my previous article on achieving pixel-perfect graphics you’ll know that my reference resolution is exactly 320×192. Preparing backgrounds and foregrounds of the level After that, I’ll make a C# script that will bind everything together inside Unity. To do this, I’m going to first prepare background layers in Aseprite. This is my own project in which I’d like to create pixel-perfect environments that would be satisfying to watch. In order to demonstrate the solution, I will use the concepts and graphics prepared for one of the levels in Bionica game. In this tutorial I would like to show you my implementation of this effect in my upcoming 2D game. The Witcher 3 intermission loading screens.Īs you can see, it can be used in many creative ways. We have seen examples of developers creating stylized cutscenes utilizing this effect even in modern games, e.g. The most suitable candidates for the implementation of this kind of visualisation are of course 2D platformers, but it is not always the case. Its mechanism is to make subsequent background layers move with a certain degree of delay in order to create a more natural and fluent looking game levels. O’Rourke to the rescue” in New Straits Times Malaysia from 1988. The method goes back a long way and its definition was first recorded and described in the article “Cap. Parallax scrolling is a special technique where individual parts of the background and foreground move independently from the main screen.
