You’ll learn how to make all kinds of 2D action games by building your own development tools, from scratch, using low-level open-source technologies. All you need is this book, a text editor, a web browser and any old computer. No libraries, no frameworks, no game engines, no black-box mystery code, and no expensive proprietary software or licenses. And you’ll be able to publish your games cross-platform to the desktop, mobile devices, and the Web. As you’ll soon see, by writing just few hundred lines of code, you’ll be well on your way to developing any 2D video game you can imagine. Sound like fun? It’s the best fun there is! Here’s what you’ll learn: •฀ New JavaScript tips and tricks, including some that arrived with ES6 (Chapter 1). •฀ How to draw graphics on the screen and use those graphics to create reusable game components (Chapters 2 and 4). •฀ How to create a scene graph (a parent-child hierarchy for game objects) for maximum lexibility in creating game scenes (Chapter 4). •฀ How to eiciently load images, sounds, fonts, and other game assets (Chapter 3) and build a loading progress bar (Chapter 11). •฀ How to animate objects with physics (Chapter 5), and how to created detailed game characters using keyframe animation (Chapter 8). •฀ Everything you need to know about collision detection (Chapter 7), including the video game designer’s “secret black art”: vector math (Appendix A). •฀ Saving and loading game data, running a game in full screen mode (Chapter 1), and scaling a game to any window size (Chapter 11.) •฀ What is the separating axis theorem (SAT) and why is it useful for games? Find out in Appendix A! •฀ How to create buttons, add mouse, touch and keyboard interactivity to your games, and learn how to create a drag-and-drop system for game objects (Chapter 6). •฀ How to add special efects to your games: easy parallax scrolling, particle efects (Chapter 8), and screen shaking (Chapter 11). •฀ How to play and control sound iles and how to generate synthesized sound efects dynamically from pure code (Chapter 9). •฀ How to build a tweening system and make game objects follow ixed curved paths (Chapter 10). xxi www.allitebooks.com ■ INTRODUCTION •฀ How to put all these pieces together to make your own game engine so that you can build games in the quickest, easiest, and most fun way (Chapter 11). •฀ And you’ll learn lots of the most modern coding and game development practices along the way. his book is a self-contained, classical education in making video games and a compendium of all the important techniques you’ll need to know to lourish as a game designer. If you were alone on a desert island with only a solar-powered laptop, a pile of coconuts, and this book, you’d have everything you need to recreate the entire history of 2D video games from Spacewar! to Flappy Bird. Things You Need to Know To make the best use of this book you need to have a moderate degree of programming literacy. You should be able to glance at a block of code in whatever programming language you’re most familiar with and have a general idea of how it works. You don’t need to think of yourself as a “programmer” or some kind of expert. You just need to be able to fumble your way through programming problems with a reasonable degree of conidence. If you enjoy programming, you’ll love this book. he programming code in this book is written in JavaScript. JavaScript belongs to the C family of languages (C, C++, C#, Objective-C, Java, and AS3.0) so if you know any of those languages, you’ll be able to use JavaScript with ease. And even if you’ve never used JavaScript before, Chapter 1 gives you a quick primer. Have you never done any programming before? hen start with this book’s predecessor, Foundation Game Design with HTML5 and JavaScript. It will teach you how to program, while you’re learning how to make games, and cover everything you need to know to start using this book. Have you read Foundation Game Design with HTML5 and JavaScript? If so, you’re well prepared. If you think you might have forgotten a bit, or need a refresher before you start, relax! I’ve written this book in a very sneaky way. It covers all the basics, from scratch, and squeezes in all the advanced, interesting new stuf all along the way. So, if you’ve forgotten something, like how to make and render a sprite, don’t worry: it’s all in here and packed with loads of clever new tricks. Where the Foundation book was all about learning how to program and how to do things in the most understandable way, this Advanced book is all about doing things in the best and most exciting ways. I’ve written this to be a completely comprehensive book about making games that will reintroduce you to our beloved art form with enlightening and eye-opening new ways of doing things. How to Read This Book his is a storybook. You can read it in bed, or on the beach. Just as you would with Jane Eyre or he Lord of the Rings, start at Chapter 1 and work your way through to the end. Each chapter builds on the techniques and concepts of the previous chapter. But if there are speciic techniques you want to know about right away, just jump in at any spot—you should be still be OK. he only part that’s diferent is Appendix A: “Vectors for Movement and Collision Detection.” You can read it at any time. Appendix A is a deep exploration of vector math concepts which are generally relevant to all the other chapters in the book—but also optional. If you want to know all about vectors before you start Chapter 1, go ahead and read the Appendix irst. But if you’re not really that interested, or just want to keep it for future reference, you can skip it completely. xxii www.allitebooks.com ■ INTRODUCTION The Source Code Most of the content in this book is actually not in this book. You’ll ind it in the source code iles that accompany each chapter. You can download the source code from this book’s product page at www.apress.com, or at this book’s GitHub repository: https://github.com/kittykatattack/agd Yes, there’s a lot of source code! In fact, there’s so much that most of the printed examples in this book only highlight the most signiicant, vital parts. You’re a good enough programmer to understand how those parts it into the bigger picture. But if you have any doubts, open up the complete working source code and take a look. All the code in this book is written in pure JavaScript and HTML. It doesn’t use any abstraction layers like CofeeScript, TypeScript, or JQuery. his book was written during a time when many of the best features of HTML5 for game developers were still experimental and required “vendor preixes” to work properly on all platforms. I’ll mention in the text if it’s likely that you’ll need to use them, but I’ll try to keep them out of the printed code in this book. (For maximum compatibility I’ve kept them in the source code, but usually tidied them away in a JS polyill ile.) Hopefully, you’re reading this book in a happy, future time when these vestigial tails of HTML5’s evolution have disappeared. But until then, here are the most common vendor preixes in current use: Vendor CSS Prefix JavaScript Prefix Microsoft -ms- ms Mozilla -moz- moz Opera -o- o Chrome, Safari -webkit- webkit ■ Tip Writing cross-platform CSS can be particularly difficult, because there are often discrepancies between vendors about how CSS properties are defined. You can make CSS fun again by using a good preprocessor like Sass, and use its Compass extension to create all the vendor-specific code for you automatically. Also, make sure that you run all the source code in a webserver. Many JavaScript and HTML5 features that we’ll be using in this book, like XHR, will only work inside a webserver. A nice cross-platform way to do this is to install Node, which is a marvelous pure JavaScript server. Visit nodejs.org and follow the instructions to install it on your platform. hen install a great little helper utility that runs on top of it, called http-server: (github.com/nodeapps/http-server).

MASTERARBEIT Foundations for Music-Based Games Ausgeführt am Institut für Gestaltungs- und Wirkungsforschung der Technischen Universität Wien unter der Anleitung von Ao.Univ.Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Peter Purgathofer und Univ.Ass. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Martin Pichlmair durch Marc-Oliver Marschner Arndtstrasse 60/5a, A-1120 WIEN 01.02.2008 Abstract The goal of this document is to establish a foundation for the creation of music-based computer and video games. The first part is intended to give an overview of sound in video and computer games. It starts with a summary of the history of game sound, beginning with the arguably first documented game, Tennis for Two, and leading up to current developments in the field. Next I present a short introduction to audio, including descriptions of the basic properties of sound waves, as well as of the special characteristics of digital audio. I continue with a presentation of the possibilities of storing digital audio and a summary of the methods used to play back sound with an emphasis on the recreation of realistic environments and the positioning of sound sources in three dimensional space. The chapter is concluded with an overview of possible categorizations of game audio including a method to differentiate between music-based games.

  • Files I Have Known
    FILES I HAVE KNOWN FOREWORD The data reminiscences that follow are probably an unrewarding read. Published reminiscences stand as monuments to the ego of their authors. However, the true purpose of this text is to experimentally substitute digital files with written memories of those files, prompted by metadata. Can the original essence of a data file be recreated purely by words? Many of the files chosen here are obscure and not necessarily available online. It’s likely that the files themselves are of little interest if discovered without their context, forming only fragments of nonsensicality in the wider noise of online data. These reminiscences too may appear as yet further noise flung onto an internet already overpopulated with noise vying for visibility. But by intimately analysing one’s own files in terms of their emotional impact, the reader may come to appreciate that every file has a story. In our daily dealings with data, we partake in the creation of such stories, and the stories also create us. FILES I HAVE KNOWN CHAPTER I “dontryathome.zip” Size: 345KB (345,410 bytes) Created: 31 December 2004 13:53 Format: ZIP Archive “dontryathome.zip” was a compressed archive containing images randomly taken from the web. It’s a file I no longer possess, so all that exists of it now is the above scrap of metadata, the text of the email it was attached to, and the memory. This may well be the eventual fate of all data – future generations might only be left with metadata and memories to reminiscence over if either (a) the pace of technology outstrips the means to preserve and open obsolete file formats, or (b) a sudden cataclysmic environmental or economic global disaster annuls electronic technologies.

Environment Modules provide a convenient way to dynamically change the users’ environment through modulefiles. This includes easily adding or removing directories to the PATH environment variable. Modulefiles for Library packages provide environment variables that specify where the library and header files can be found. 1 Lmod Documentation, Release 8.5.16 2 Chapter 1. PURPOSE CHAPTER 2 OVERVIEW This guide is written to explain what Environment Modules are and why they are very useful for both users and system administrators. Lmod is an implementation of Environment Modules, much of what is said here is true for any environment modules system but there are many features which are unique to Lmod. Environment Modules provide a convenient way to dynamically change the users’ environment through modulefiles. This includes easily adding or removing directories to the PATH environment variable. A modulefile contains the necessary information to allow a user to run a particular application or provide access to a particular library. All of this can be done dynamically without logging out and back in. Modulefiles for applications modify the user’s path to make access easy. Modulefiles for Library packages provide environment variables that specify where the library and header files can be found.
