In Listing 11-1 the variables
startScreen
and
aboutScreen
are instances of
GameAssetsUI
. Each
GameAssetsUI
is a complete set of
Nodes
from the original Illustrator file. The functions
initStartScreen
and
initAboutScreen
prepare
startScreen
and
aboutScreen
for use in the game. The function
initStartScreen
simplifies the gradients, creates an animation for the spotlight, removes a number of
unwanted
Nodes
and turns the
Nodes
startScreen.startButton
and
startScreen.aboutButton
into
buttons. Let's take a look at each of these steps.
The gradients generated when exporting from Illustrator are oddly complex. Listing 11-2 shows one
of these gradients.
