Making games with impact: Part 6 – the stamp


Obviously from the name, this is the sixth in a series on making  games with the library, impact.js . Now that we have a background, let’s start putting in some trees and bushes. (For the first 5 parts, scroll to the bottom.)

We’re going to create a new layer of bushes. Just like before, create  a new layer, select the tile set, and now you see this. Let me give you a hint. Click inside of the rectangle with the bush in the top left corner, hold down the shift key and drag until you have selected the entire bush.

Now you have kind of a ‘stamp’ . Everywhere you click inside the game playing screen you’ll have a bush. I repeat the same steps with a tree layer and now my background looks like this.
