Get started

The API is excellently easy to work with. Just add a few lines to your game camera to give it a go.

fn setup(mut commands: Commands) {
    commands.spawn((
        Camera2d,
        ParallaxCamera::default(),
        children![
            ParallaxLayer::new("sky.png", 0.9)
                .with_tile_size(UVec2::new(384, 216))
                .with_repeat(LayerRepeat::horizontal())
                .with_z(-2.0),
            ParallaxLayer::new("mountains.png", 0.5)
                .with_tile_size(UVec2::new(320, 240))
                .with_repeat(LayerRepeat::horizontally(RepeatStrategy::MirrorHorizontally))
                .with_z(-1.0),
            ParallaxLayer::new("ground.png", 0.0)
                .with_tile_size(UVec2::new(640, 360))
                .with_repeat(LayerRepeat::horizontal())
                .with_z(0.0),
        ],
    ));
}
