Luminous Night is a glowing nature scene with moving fireflies, trees, mountains, and a soft melody in the background.
I wanted to create a calming scene with some moving elements to make it feel alive. My color palette includes cool
tone colors with some lighter glowing blue, purple, green, and pink contrasted with the dark blue background to set
the glowing night scene. The main movements are the fireflies that are jitterbugs, a mountain range made up of
noise, pine trees made with random gaussian, a firefly that can move with the arrow keys and another one that
moves with the mouse. The cursor firefly has a pink glowing trail when the mouse is pressed while the keyed firefly
has a yellow moving trail based on the semi-transparent background I set. I drew a custom firefly cursor in Adobe
Illustrator and saved it as a png to use in my coding to create the firefly. The final touch was adding a sound button
to play music that helps create a serene night scene.
