    About this ebook

    Create a real 2D game from start to finish with ImpactJS, the JavaScript game framework that works with the HTML5's Canvas element. Making video games is hard work that requires technical skills, a lot of planning, and—most critically—a commitment to completing the project. With this hands-on guide, you’ll learn how to use Impact with other technologies step-by-step.

    You’ll pick up important tips about game design, and discover how to publish Impact games to the Web, desktop, and mobile—including a method to package your game as a native iOS app. Packed with screen shots and sample code, this book is ideal for game developers of all levels.

    • Set up your development environment and discover Impact’s advantages
    • Build a complete game with core logic, collision detection, and player and monster behavior
    • Learn why a game design document is critical before you start building
    • Display and animate game artwork with sprite sheets
    • Add sound effects, background music, and text
    • Create screens to display stats and in-game status
    • Prepare to publish by baking your game files into a single file
