Physics Games for JavaScript, Animation, and Simulations with HTML5 Canvas

Have you ever wanted to include believable, solid interactivity in your games and projects to give them that extra edge? Physics Games for JavaScript, Animation, and Simulations teaches you how to incorporate real physics, such as gravity, friction, and buoyancy, into your HTML5 games, animations, and simulations. It also includes more advanced topics, such as particle systems, which are essential for creating effects such as sparks or smoke. Finally, the book addresses the key issue balancing of accuracy and performance in your games and simulations, and the final chapters give you the information and the code to make the right choice for your project. Physics Games for JavaScript, Animation, and Simulations assumes you have a basic knowledge of JavaScript and HTML5. However, no previous knowledge of physics is required-only some very basic math skills.
