Space Shooter

Tutorial: Building a polished HTML5 space shooter game with Phaser.js

The code of this project is not the same as the tutorial. Instead, I'm using ecmascript6 via Babel JS and Slush, a scaffolding tool for javascript projects.

Special thanks to Jeff Schomay who made available this awesome tutorial.

Pre-requesits

You will need to have node and gulp setup on your machine.

Getting started

To package all source files and run on a local server simply run the following command:

$ gulp

This should open a browser window with the game running locally. You can copy the address and paste it into any browser on your local network (including mobiles and tablets).

Scaffold

  • design (game design document goes here)
  • media (folder for your assets source...)
  • gulp (gulp tasks folder)
  • project (contains scripts, stylesheets and index.html)
  • static/assets
    • images
    • music
    • sound

Editing

When editing, make sure you update the files within the project directory. These files will then be compressed and added to the dist directory ready for publishing.

ECMAScript 6 features are supported with help of Traceur. This means you can write code with syntax which is going to be supported officially by Phaser 3.

Happy building games!
