JavaScript for games development was developed from an undergraduate degree module run by the author. This book is aimed at intermediate level coders but ramps up gradually and provides references to each new technology as they are introduced so it can also be followed by enthusiastic beginners.

Writing computer games is a fun and creative activity. **JavaScript for games development** is written with this concept at its core. The book takes the reader step-by-step through the game design process starting with only what is necessary to complete each step and refactoring the code as necessary along the way. This reflects the natural progression that code follows in the real world. Each chapter is designed to take your code base to the next level and to add to your skills. The result is a general purpose approach which makes the process of creating object-oriented 2D games more fun and more productive.

After completing the examples in this book you will have the tools necessary to build your own, high quality games. Awesome!
