Discover half yin-yang pattern by simulating kinematic motion using Linkage. To my surprise the setup is pretty simple; 2 same wide bar separated by same distance then add a diagonal linkage bar. One tip act as actuator while other tip anchored.
The position altered by cosine formula & modulo operation to get those sphere slide within stroke.
Since preparing for GDD, current logo needs to be polished a bit just to feel decent.
Stretched rubber band & engino pieces to build this quick tensegrity structure.
Tagging system proven to be flexible & reliable especially for synchronized complex motion.Some application; Teleporter portal tags, multiple instance range spotting, snake body segment chaining (pin or physics behavior).
Here sources for those cases:
I don’t know it was removed long time ago from Construct/Scirra arcade. Here the minesweeper clone is up again:

It’s really hard to make the chain behave correctly but hey it’s fun to watch.

‘Plus’ pattern consist of ‘brick’ objects summoned in 4 directions then advanced generates another ‘plus’ pattern with smaller repetition.
Z sorting done with simple formula. Shooting queue envolving subtraction. Shooting restriction determined by comparing distance. Onward!
Happy that the code base still under 40 events which is relatively easy to maintain before advancing. Isometric coordinate helps us thinking measurement in it’s relative units.
