Yesterday I gave a session about HTML 5 game development.. It was a very nice experience to give a session out of the Java topics in such conference :)
Abstract:
HTML 5 is the 5th major revision of the core language of the World Wide Web: the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). In this version, new features are introduced to help Web application authors, new elements are introduced based on research into prevailing authoring practices, and special attention has been given to defining clear conformance criteria for user agents in an effort to improve interoperability.
In our session we will cover quick orientation about HTML 5 new features, then we will dig on how to create games using html5 new features, we will cover all basic components of the gaming including: Animations, Interactions, Controls, Effects, Boundaries, Entry Points, Physics and AI rules.
A step by step game development will be covered in this session to guide the attendees about how to create the game and how to package this into a deployable application for different smart phone devices.
Some advanced topics will be covered like using Box2d Physics engine plus AI engine example.
