Just a quick demo I made, probably will be useless, but meh, at least I have done something, right?

Anyway, just scroll the mouse around to move the view, and if the Sun goes near the center, well, there is a white flash thingy, like if you where really looking in the sun or something, well close to it at least.

Try making a game (a challenge for ya!) to make a city destroying game. Where your player would be the monster, and you could destroy the buildings and eat people!

That's very cool! Can I ask which program you are using to include transparency as a property in your graphic files? I'm intersested since I am always on the search to create better graphic effects. I'm a master of paint but unfortunately paint does not use alpha...

Anyway, I appreciate in advance!

To make the BG, I used truespace 3.2, it's free, google it.
And for the rest, I used Icon Lover, it's not free, but it has a trial of 30-days http://www.aha-soft.com

That's cool Gogo! If you want, you can try simulating different weather conditions. For example rain, clouds, storm, wind etc. I tried to do some rain and snow effects in 2006 for Diana Kennedy. (You still remember Diana Gogo?) :)

By the way, this is off topic, but you get that kind of sun glares only when you watch the sun through a lens. (For example camera) But it doesn't matter because the effect is used in many movies so much that it looks realistic for many of us. :)

Yes, I remember Diana.
And I can do several weather effects, I should upload something I made, it was the sun going up and there was fog, then some clouds of rain came in etc...

And, yes I know that it produced with lens, but it gives a cool effect, and your screen can be like one, in some ways... but the intention is there =P
