Hey! First post on rant by saying merry Xmass!
This is my Christmas tree made from JavaScript ! I can change the height of the foliage and the wood part follow !
For those like me who live in a country where you only have the cold but not the snow 😅❄️

Now with floor generation !

Particle.js as snow?

No, no library, just rectangle and ellipse drawn everywhere for the fir and the snow

Love the parallax snow but it feels out of place with the 8-bit tree both because of the parallax effect and varying particle size. Maybe add some details to the tree and use a triangle shape (much smaller squares) instead of the big waterfall squares (possibly with AA)?
EDIT: I see you made the squares smaller in the second iteration, it's much better already :)

Good add Bikonja, I divided my tree in square to build it (more easy to do a variable sized tree)

so if I say that 1 square = 1 px, I can put 1000 in the size to create a 1000px perfectly triangle tree !

Like so

@Kami maybe you can add a few decoration sprites then and add them to random green squares? Distribute them uniform around the tree and always x percent of number of tree squares and with the size in a variable. Should be easy enough to do and give a lot of room to play around with how it looks and easily add a new sprite to make it even nicer... God I miss programming :) (haven't done any in a few days and any like that in quite a while)

@Bikonja yes I'm looking more into decoration stuff
But for now I want to add dat.gui library to make playing around with settings more intuitive and fun for my friends but I m stuck even if it's look really simple to add

@Kami haven't seen dat.gui so can't help you there without seeing it and I'm off to bed now, but I might just play around with a similar thing these days, you've gotten me in the mood :)

@Bikonja happy to ear that ! I started creative programming when I was in vacation, no work to be busy with but also don't want to do what I do in my work for fun, so JavaScript is really helping me to satisfy my hunger of doing useless things with coding 😅

You can now play with it :)
