#52Earlier quoted context omitted.
Can't you just change it yourself? Change the stylesheet in your web browser.
You can also code the entire game in your web browser yourself, but that wasn't the point of the comment.

#54[cowboy bepop theme music plays] It's not obvious you can just go back and edit the formula already. Also it will be hard to do neat tricks if the sampling positions are not fixed on the x axis in world space.
Actually the visible sampling positions are a visual artifact independent of the physics, which samples the graph directly rather than using a polygon collision test. So neat tricks are very possible! The game should (should!) produce deterministic results independent of screen size or computer speed.
Seriously this is the kind of bullshit that makes normal people hate programmers because you miss the point entirely while thinking you're on it.
