spectacles engine v1.1


updated the spectacles engine download:

  • added "setItem"/"getItem" localStorage utility functions
  • added "silent" event for enabling/disabling logs
  • added wakelock to prevent screensaver from activating during auto mode
  • added "data-volume" and "data-rate" properties for setting initial values of audio elements in frame_sfx/frame_music
  • added "data-next" property for image elements. this allows swapping to a second image suffixed with "-loop" after the specified timeout (useful for playing looping animations that have a one-off lead-in)
  • updated "goto" to treat empty values as advancing a single line (this is useful for branching mid-scene with conditionally defined variables; an example is given in the sample project)
  • added debug menu to frame_music for testing tracks
  • added debug menu to frame_spectacles including plaintext script for proofreading, basic word/line count, and scene jump controls
  • a few other minor bugfixes/debug improvements

Does this engine come with a manual? It seems really interesting and offbeat.

nothing as detailed as a manual, but the sample project includes examples of how to use most features. feel free to reach out to me directly if you're trying it out and have questions
