To draw windows light keep in mind that sun rays are parallel, because The Sun is so bigger than Earth and so far away from as, so should converge toward their own vanishing point.

This is the code that draws the above window. It's terribly inefficient -- it starts over from scratch every frame, completely needlessly, but that's not the part I was testing so I'm not fussed about it.
static function drawWindow(UInt16 x, UInt16 y) -> Void { var win = make_shared<Window>(Point(x, y), Size(450, 250)); win->acquire(); win->clear(0, 22); win->drawCircle(Point(50,50), 25, true, 0, 43); win->drawCircle(Point(60,60), 25, true, 0, 57, 127); win->drawRect(Rect(50,100,45,76), true, 0, 76); win->drawRect(Rect(49,99,47,78), false, 0, 0); UInt8 color = 0; var box = make_shared<Surface>(256, 256); var border = make_shared<Surface>(264, 264); border->acquire(); border->clear(0, 0); border->release(); box->acquire(); box->clear(0, 0); for (UInt16 row = 0; row < 16; row += 1) { for (UInt16 col = 0; col < 16; col += 1) { var rect = Rect(col * 16, row * 16, 16, 16); box->drawRect(rect, true, 0, color); color += 1; } } box->release(); win->drawSurface(border, Point(100, 10)); win->drawSurface(box, Point(104, 14)); win->release(); win->draw(); }
