2D Game Dev – Part 8.2: Sprite Struct Demo

This post is a portion of Part 8 in my on going series about 2D Game Development using the Allegro 5 library. These posts are in course order. You can see all of the posts in this course by clicking the “2D Game Development” button at the top of this site.

• 8.0 – Structured Sprites
• 8.1 – Our Sprite Struct
• 8.2 – Sprite Struct Demo
• 8.3 – Sprite Struct Gravity Demo

Having created our Sprite Struct in the previous video, this video pushes the code even further. By the end, you will see how we can utilize a simple array and the code we have already looked at to animate 15,000 independent sprites on the screen at the same time. Enjoy!
