Is it possible to have a looping background?

[peroxidehead]

Out of curiosity, I was wondering if it's possible for a screen to have a looping background? Like for example, my attached picture, I just want it to continuously loop with it moving upwards while more hearts go up from below to enter the screen. Is that possible? I've tried looking around for an answer but I haven't really found anything useful Any insight would be much appreciated!

You can tile your heart graphic with an image manipulator, and use ATL to animate it scrolling.

Code: Select all

# Let's assume the image is 256x256, and the screen is 1280x720
image heartscroll:
    im.Tile("images/heart.png",size=(1280,720+256))
    # i.e. big enough to fill the screen and then add one more row
    xoffset 0 yoffset 256
    linear 2.0 xoffset 0 yoffset 0
    repeat
    # slide up one row and then skip back, creating the illusion of continuous hearts

label start:
    scene heartscroll
