The Blank Game
A Blank 2D Game with Sound and a Sprite
The Blank Game

This is pretty much what it says, a blank 2d game with a geometrically implausible shape in the background and a rotating sprite of some amusing text. Its purpose is to get you started quickly on the basics of making a 2D game with the LARC Engine. You can also use it to start development of a new game. The background image is mostly white with a colored shape at the center (see below, left). This is rendered with a single sprite that rotates around the center of the image (see below, right).

The overall effect looks something like this:
