Lecture 13: 2D Graphics

### 2D Graphics

# Lines

---

# Lines

* Remember triangles?
  
  * Lines are the triangles of the 2D world (kind of)
  
  * You can assemble lines into polygons
  
  * Lines connect two vertices

---

# Rasterization of Lines

* How do we draw a line on the screen?
  
  * Pixels!
  
  * Rasterization: Take lines (or triangles, in 3D), and map them to pixels
  
  * But pixels are arranged in a rectangular grid
  
  * How do we draw diagonal lines?
  
  * Idea: Draw ideal line, and for each column of pixels make the pixel black that is closest to the line!
  
  * Bresenham's algorithm!

# Anti-Aliasing

* What if we use other pixels that are touched by the line, too?
  
  * Maybe not to show them in black, but some sort of gray?
  
  * How do we determine "how gray" a pixel should be?
  
  * Supersampling! 
  
  * Calculate more pixels than necessary, and take the average value

  * If current pixel already has the target color, or the border color: return 
  
  * Otherwise, color current pixel with target color and recursively call Flood Fill for all four neighboring pixels

# Corner cutting

---

# Corner cutting

* We don't need to cut each line segment in half 
  
  * We can use cuts of 1/3 to 2/3, or any other fraction
  
  * This allows us to control the rounding

# Corner cutting with ration 1/3 to 2/3

# Subdivision Surfaces

* You can basically do the same thing in 3D!

# Curves

* Sometimes we want to draw arbitrary curves
  
  * One approach: Perform corner cutting on a polygon
  
  * Drawback: Smoothness
  
  * Other approach: Splines!

# Sprites

* Sometimes we want pre-drawn art: *Sprites*
  
  * A sprite is a 2D image that is drawn into the scene 
  
  * Old consoles and arcade machine had hardware support for sprites 
  
  * Today they are very cheap to display 
  
  * Sprites can also be animated!

# Sprite Animations

```JavaScript
context.drawImage(image,
    frameIndex * width / numberOfFrames, clip*height,
    width / numberOfFrames, height,
    0, 0,
    width / numberOfFrames, height);
```

# The problem with Unity

* Unity makes it really easy to make games 
  
  * This is great!
  
  * Unfortunately that also means that there are many less-than-great games made in Unity 
  
  * If you make less than $100 000/year, you can use the free version
  
  * What's the problem with the free version?

# The problem with Unity

---

# Why?

* Engines used to be one of the main selling point of games
  
  * Many gamers still equate engine with game quality
  
  * And now they see many less-than-great games with a "Made with Unity" splash screen
  
  * Therefore, a game made in Unity must be terrible
  
  * Except that's not true

# A solution?
