π DESCRIPTION π
so basically? this program is a little demo that shows you how to manipulate the palette. like, actually get in there and mess with it. π
what it does, step by step, no cap:
- it draws a set of concentric circles onto the screen π
- then it animates them by cycling the palette β¨
and that's it, that's the whole trick. it's giving "tiny demo, huge brain energy". the circles don't even move β the colors move. iykyk. π«
lowkey iconic that palette cycling can fake an entire animation. main character energy fr fr. π«Ά
