Supercharge your Node.JS game development with FlowJS! 🚀 This lightweight and efficient library provides all the essential building blocks for crafting awesome 2D games. It's packed with features to handle rendering, input, sprites, and more!
- Asset Management: Effortlessly load and manage textures, sounds, and other game assets.
- Sprite Rendering: Render sprites with smooth animations, transformations, and even custom shaders for that extra sparkle! ✨
- Input Handling: Let FlowJS handle keyboard and mouse input, so you can focus on the fun stuff. 🎮
- Collision Detection: Add physics and interactions between objects with collision detection. 💥
- Sprites: Extend the
Sprite
class to create unique sprites with their own behaviors and abilities. 💫
Just simply run:
npm install flowgame
- Import FlowJS into your project:
import flow from 'flowgame';
- Create an Game instance:
class MyGame extends flow.Game {
async onCreate() {
//...creation code here...
}
}
- Load your assets:
await engine.loadAsset('./assets/player.png', 'player');
- Create your sprites:
class Player extends flow.Sprite {
onCreate() {
this.loadTexture("player");
}
onKeyPress(key) {
if (key[0] == "right") this.changeVelocity(1, 0);
if (key[0] == "left") this.changeVelocity(-1, 0);
if (key[0] == "up") this.changeVelocity(0, -1);
if (key[0] == "down") this.changeVelocity(0, 1);
}
}
- Load your sprites
async onCreate() {
//...other creation code here...
this.addSprite(Player)
}
- And start your game!
new flow.Engine({game:MyGame, window:{width:1280, height:720,title:"Game"}});
