🎮 Game Development MASTERCLASS SERIES with vanilla JavaScript, basics for beginners: 🎮
🐶 Project 1: *** this video ***

Adding animated sprite sheets to your JavaScript games is one of the fastest and the most impactful ways to bring your games to the next level and to add that professional look and polish you want. Games with sprites are great at pulling your audience into the fantasy you are trying to create and they are also really fun to make.
Today I will show you everything you need to know about sprite animation with vanilla JavaScript and by the end of this course, you will be able to have complete control over any sprite sheet you choose. I will show the easiest beginner friendly sprite animation technique first and then we will go a bit deeper and learn how to properly set up different player animations, so we can swap between them by changing just one variable and use it in our game.
Also I'm giving away free premium sprite sheet today so that you can code along with me and get exactly the same result. Let's learn JavaScript by building games.

I found your channel only a week ago and have watched every single one of your videos. This is honestly some of the highest quality information there is in the whole of youtube.

You unlocked my brain. I have been learning web and game dev for 2, 5 and stagnating for the past 9 months
After your canvas and particles video I suddenly made incredible progress in only 2 weeks, working on projects is fun again and finally yield results.

Hope you keep this great content going, it really is invaluable

Thank you

I was following someone elses tutorial on creating a top down 2d rpg for a class project. The tutorial kind of skipped over draw image and essentially was a point in the tutorial where it felt like i was just writing to write what they had. I got curious and found your video on animating these sprites. Thanks to you I only watched half of the top down rpg tutorial and was able to finish my project for class (97% on the project, forgot to erase un needed comments). I am continuing the game as a personal hobby and thank you for taking such a deep dive into this method.

Holy Crap that was fun! I'm definitely going to do some tweaks down the line and screw around in the rest of the series as well. This is really teaching me more in a day then months spent outside of this course. You have a great teaching style, seem to enjoy what you, and give encouragement so I don't feel like an idiot the first time I read something and have to go over several times before it clicks! Thanks for this!!!
