This tiny source code snippet uses PlayBasic's shapes to draw batches of line fragments. The fragments are all connected in a circle were each vertex is waving and rotating. On their own the effect is really simple; but when you overlay (rotate and scale) a bunch of them on top of each other it creates a sort of button effect similar to the robotic voice in the classic science function movie 2001 A Space Odyssey. Excuse my poor impressions of Hal in this video.. It's just for laughs
This example is basically an asteroids frame work. While it doesn't play a full game of asteroids, it's set up to demonstrate a method of partitioning the games world space to help eliminate unnecessary collision checks. In this case shape intersections.
