Perlin Explorer

This game for the Playdate explores the Perlin noise API provided by the Playdate SDK

About

This was built as I was trying to understand the API with help from folks in the Playdate Dev Forum. It does the following:

1. Generates a size x size grid of Perlin noise (values from 0.0 - 1.0)
2. Dithers them to get a color pattern somehwere between black and white
3. Draws those squares in the grid.

Options

Using the options screen, you can change

• the number of squares in the grid (size)
• the z value (these values are in 3D-space, turns out.)
• how often the pattern repeats
• the number of "octaves" to use, and how much to persist later octaves.
• the method by which the noise is generated
