Forget shader headaches. ๐ŸŽจ

Velaptor makes 2D shapes easy.
Get gradient bordered or filled circles in just a few lines of C#.
Plus, auto-updating edge properties make collision math and UI layouts a breeze. ๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿงฑ Simplify your 2D rendering with Velaptor!

Stop worrying abt call order. Every Render() call uses a 'layer' parameter to handle depth:
โ˜๏ธ Layer -20: Background
๐ŸŒฑ Layer 0: Ground
โš”๏ธ Layer 1: Player
๐Ÿ“Š Layer 100: UI/HUD

Clean code. Better Z-depth. ๐Ÿš€

Yeah, people just don't know. I looked at how long I have been working on Velaptor, and it's been about 9 to 10 years. I think I want to cry. I have worked on this so hard for so long, and I still have not made a single dime yet. It isn't easy.
