With the HTML5 canvas API, web developers have the ability to draw and animate in 2D using JavaScript. And from there, it just takes a bit of structure to design a simple game.
In this Tech Talk, we will use a rudimentary game engine to design a 2D Platformer in Vanilla JavaScript. We will focus on these game design concepts:
- Collision Detection & Resolution
- Object-Oriented Programming and Inheritance
- Trigonometric Functions for Smooth Animations
- State Machines
- Events
- And More
We will also discuss the many differences (and some similarities) between game design and web development.
This Tech Talk is for programmers and gamers of all levels of experience. A basic understanding of JavaScript and the canvas API will help attendees follow along.
Refer to this guide for an intro to drawing with canvas: https://github.com/pjz987/guides/blob/master/docs/canvas-tutorial.md
