code drawing 121
code drawing 121, various states, created 2015-10-24. reduced the typographic pipes (2,500% enlargement instead of the 10k% and 5k% of the previous drawing). this let the drawn lines be seen more often.

code drawing 120
code drawing 120 (slow draw), various states, created on 2015-10-24. made the pipes huge (10,000%, I think). this really slowed the drawing/rendering to a crawl. it didn’t crash, surprisingly. it did get some nice color variants, and some soft edges which were unexpected. the pipes weren’t transparent enough for the drawn lines to show through.…

code drawing 119
code drawing 119, various states, created on 2015-10-25. increased size of typographic pipes and constrained their colors to yellow, orange, and red. kept transparency. the code ran a bit slower as it calculated the overlapping transparencies. the horizontal lines are too dark, I think.

code drawing 118b, various states, created on 2015-10-24. added transparency effect to the typographic pipes. the drawn lines aren’t allowed transparency (alpha) in Hopscotch, but the sprites and typographic characters are.
