    u(t) is called 60 times per second.
    t: Elapsed time in seconds.
    S: Shorthand for Math.sin.
    C: Shorthand for Math.cos.
    T: Shorthand for Math.tan.
    R: Function that generates rgba-strings, usage ex.: R(255, 255, 255, 0.5)
    c: A 1920x1080 canvas.
    x: A 2D context for that canvas.

Impressive! I like the c.width|=M=Math hack. Apparently Math is evaluated to NaN in the process.

great job! some tricks here really opens new possibilities
u/mxfh

you can do M.sqrt() with ES6 power operator as **.5 should yield a net gain of 2 chars
u/FireFly

Oh right! I haven't gotten used to it yet since I'm on Fx51, which doesn't seem to support ** yet. Thanks!

u/sigveseb

I love this!
u/alien

wait WHAT !!
u/alien

D: What is going on here!! how
u/iverjo

How does it work?
u/FireFly

It's a dweetification of an older sprite generator of mine. The idea is to take a "mask" of 0..1 floats and filter a grid of random numbers for when num<mask. In this case the mask is based on euclidean distance from centre. This is done for half the sprite, and then the other half is just mirrored
u/FireFly

(You could also view it as flipping a biased coin for each mask value, with the bias given by the mask)
u/FireFly

The same principle would work just as well with larger sprites too, and more exotic/interesting mask shapes. The same rid of random numbers could be applied to different masks, or to an animated mask, to produce an animation between sprites, too!
u/nystrand

so cool!
u/joeytwiddle

Awesome. I love it. Every single one looks like a space invader!
u/iverjo

Interesting technique. Thanks for explaining :) Also, I agree with joeytwiddle
u/jick

Got a link to the original sprite generator?
u/FireFly

I never really wrote it to be shared, so it's all hardcoded and with really ugly code. I put together this animation though: https://twitter.com/FireyFly/status/80072288…
u/statenlogic

Simple, but effective! Makes me want to play 8-bit games again.

wtf is going on here?!
u/FireFly

The string embeds a tiny bitmap which is simply repeated :)
u/5Mixer

This is an awesome idea! I wonder what else you could do with using strings to encode more complex(?) data. Interesting.
u/PiggyClone205

When I read complex, I immediately thought of maybe importing other javascript and cheating a bit.

00FF. More embedded bitmap fun :)

u/iverjo

Cool!
u/sfz

Going to take a three month sabbatical and figure out how this works.
u/FireFly

Anything in particular that I should explain? It might help to draw the bits of the codepoints in the string literal on a piece of paper, as an 8×15 grid (15 chars, 8 bits per char). Ā is U+100, used to encode 0x00.
u/sfz

Colour mania

u/iverjo

Nice!
u/Woodmouth

Ohh, if you wait long enough it goes grey, but then if you wait even longer, it quite suddenly goes back to color, and then suddenly even more grey

After that it ends up resting on a kind of shiny brushed metal pattern. Amazing!

is it spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise? :)

shhh… it's rotating CCW I think, but cheating with the Z-axis/depth ordering means the faces are kind of haphazardly drawn :P
