Quasi Simple Shadows Version - 1.00 by Quasi About This plugin adds a simple shadow casting feature to character sprites. I consider this plugin simple because it is not dynamic, advanced and is not a real shadow casting. Though I do plan on creating a real shadow casting once MV can use pixi v3+. By real shadow casting I mean something like Twitter Video
