Master game animations using just plain vanilla JavaScript and HTML5 canvas. I will take you through the code step by step and we will build 4 creative coding projects together. Come practice vanilla JavaScript game animations for beginners with me. We will learn how to generate groups of computer controlled animated characters and we will make them move in 4 different ways, from random jumpy movement to path following. In this tutorial we will gain deep understanding of game development with JavaScript and take one more step towards front end web development mastery. Have fun! :)
