Course description

How to Program Games: Tile Classics in JS for HTML5 Canvas

Create, display, and play with a 2D tile world that supports optimized collision (a central concept for generations of games in a variety of genres!)
Program games in JavaScript for HTML5 Canvas without using any external libraries or plug-ins
Create, load, display, and rotate image graphics in games
Break game code into multiple files to better manage large projects
Define a class and use it to create multiple instances of gameplay objects in unique positions (note: only using the very basic first concept of object-oriented programming, it doesn’t dive deep into that rabbit hole)

Any plain text editor like Notepad will do, however one which supports features for programmers such as multiple file tabs, code highlighting, line numbers, and smart/auto-indentation can be handy for later phases as the code grows in length (Notepad++ is free for Windows, TextWrangler for Mac, or Sublime Text 2 which I use has a fully functional free trial for either)
Any common web browser should work fine, although I use Google Chrome (free) so you may prefer that one just to see on your side exactly how it shows up in the videos
To follow along the few steps for drawing art you’ll need a program that lets you draw and save images with transparency. I use a slightly older version of Photoshop, although free alternatives exist and the steps are similar. I also attach all art files that I create, so if you prefer to only focus on the coding steps you can download the images that I create in the videos.
