Where (2008)
This demo was created in 2007-2008 using an early version of Pixilang 1.x.
The music was written specifically for this work.
But something went wrong, and the demo ended up gathering dust in the archives until 2025,
when I decided to restore it, make minimal edits, and finally release it in video format.
The source files will be made public later.
By the way, the "Where" soundtrack, unlike the demo, was not abandoned and was released as part of the "Back to the Sources" album in 2009.
The music, of course, was composed in SunVox.
new functions: xoshiro256_new(), xoshiro256_seed(), xoshiro256_next() - random 64-bit number generator; see examples/basics/math/random2.pixi;
load()/fload() option: LOAD_AUTOROTATE - rotate/flip the image according to its orientation (e.g. when the photo was taken with a phone in portrait mode);
t_point(): new optional parameters: points, matrix, dest_points, offset1, offset2, num_points;
additional method for obtaining an argument (parameter value) of a function by index: $val = $[ arg_index ]; see examples/basics/function_parameters.pixi
it is now possible to add directories to the include search path: using command-line option "-i dir" or/and pixi_idir option in the pixilang_config.ini;
Android: new option: Preferences -> Main -> Broad access to files; allows you to write to and read almost any folder (except system folders) on internal and external memory cards; this is useful if your source files are stored in a shared folder accessible by other apps (such as text editors);
