Loop Changing Background Colour While Game Loading?

[ceb]

Hi as the title suggests, I was just wondering whether this is possible and how to do it?

 

Please help thanks.

The loadUpdate state fires continuously as the preload state does its job, and the progress can be checked during this state via the game.load.progress property. You could use this to alter game.stage.backgroundColor over time.

I had this nice reply all typed up, then hit the wrong reply button and lost it all when the page changed...

 

But, I was basically saying the same thing lewster did...

There are some nice features in the Phaser.Color object to allow you to smoothly blend between two colours, for instance you could do something like this:

function loadUpdate() {  var intermedateColor = Phaser.Color.interpolateColor(0xff0000, 0x0000ff, 100, game.load.progress); // get a color between 0xff0000 (red) and 0x0000ff (blue) depending on load progress  game.stage.backgroundColor = intermediateColor;}
