VaporWave Road – the long road is finally programmed!
Finally, this long road is programmed! It was a bit of a challenge. I applied the formulas here. And, to put it briefly, I messed up. I decided not to do that. But to use my existing skills. I'm not good with math, and I've learned that again.
The intro is a standard one. You just have to watch it. And random animations appear. There are two types. It's all about columns and a synthwave background. Columns – hence the vaporwave. And the music is by a cool guy, WhiteBat Audio. The track is called Crystal Cola. He has his own website. And it's easy to find online. Thanks to him for the music! It's a real lifesaver!
So, the idea here is a road in virtual reality with columns. Like Sonic, maybe there's a level with columns. Or maybe there's a game like FarCry 3 Bloody Dragon. But I'm certainly overdoing it. It's all simple here. But there are many pre-programmed situations. A column from the side and, as it were, in 3D. Two types.
The side view is all sorts of stairs. Up and down stairs, for example. There are many such screensavers. They seem to move to the right side of the screen. And there are also many screensavers that seem to be 3D. When you move into these very columns. As if from the perspective of the eyes.
The columns are mostly pre-coded. And this is a good way for me to create such landscapes. And they simply move downwards. As if creating the effect of 3D movement. Many different columns. That's how I wanted it to look. You're flying at altitude through a strange virtual world. And you're looking at it all. Like a bird. Or some kind of virtual observer. Like an observer of a round in Counter-Strike.
There are many columns. And these are all sorts of bizarre landscapes within virtual reality. The columns often have some kind of structure. That is, they're arranged in lines. At different distances. And these are the landscapes here. These are plains. Virtual plains. A virtual surface. A fantastic flight. Like in retro VR movies from the 80s on VHS.
There were a lot of screensavers, sort of two types. They are shown alternately. First one type, then the other. About more than 10 views of each type. In total, there are more than 20 pre-made screensavers within this screensaver.
The columns move, and this is the main element of the landscape here. And the background is AI-generated. From the FreePik website. There's a lot there. You can also take a look. Mostly, the 3D screensavers are columns with a landscape. That is, there are many of them, and they seem to be in the distance. They are scattered across the digital plain. And they form the landscape. Large and small. Many and few. In different ways.
Most of them are pre-programmed. That is, it's hardcoded. But there are large columns, where they move to the right and left. And this is already done according to the formula. That's how I started this intro. And then I simply moved from formulas to hardcode. I can do everything much faster this way.
Such white columns. Left and right. And you between them. And they're approaching. Such a visual effect. Like a dream about virtual reality. Maybe there, beyond the horizon, you'll see how the matrix transforms reality into numbers. And before that, into a pseudo-world. A world of sketches or lines and columns. A great theme too.
For a computer enthusiast. Some films come to mind, like The 13th Floor and Nirvana. Not as popular as The Matrix, but also very good. From the era of VHS tapes and DVDs. That's also in my head. Such columns. And space.
Visual version 0.3 "Third" - newest version. More 7 new intros. With this version - Space, Constellation, Forest, Leaves, Retrowave Road, Smiles are flying, Deep Jump. This is pack with visual intros. You just need to watch them! And there are control intros. Intros about different themes. Visual sequence.
