How to change a String's Case in JavaScript

-

Strings can be capitalized using String.toUpperCase
For instance;

const str = 'John swana'

str.toUpperCase()

// 'JOHN SWANA'
String.toLowerCase turns strings to their small letters or 'lowerCase'


const strr = "Lorem ipsum"
strr.toLowerCase()

// lorem ipsum
Numbers are not converted, they remain constant, untouched and unchanged.


'65'.toLowerCase()

// '65'

So basically clouds are shapes with a flat bottom and 3 curves on top (two on the sides on bigger one on the middle) As i was creating a JS13K Game i wondered around googling if i'd find something as simple as that and 'i couldn't find anything interesting So i took some pictures of simple animated clouds and sketched it on my notepad trying to reverse engineer shapes in the figure In my first attempt i discovered that "the base is something similar to css pills, so there's rectangular shape with roundish edges and a circle overlay on top". Putting that into vanilla JavaScript i resorted to creating two canvases 1. foreground layer 2. background layer Clouds are drawn using a solid color formed by four shapes 3 circles and a rectangle then using some alpha the resultant image is then overlay-ed onto the primary canvas. Here's an example It's a sneaky way todraw clouds so they got to be a cleanway todo this without Jumping extra hoops Last reso...

FlappingBird is a Mobile side scroller game where the player controls a bird, attempting to fly between columns trees without hitting them Development of this game started out when i was attempting to draw perfect clouds programmatically on a canvas i later added a few more clouds (Something's missing) add moon, stars,  buildings and also add Gradients and for the games character i settled on a bird (using Sprite sheet obtained freely from opengameart) add more them and animated everything. FlappingBird is a single player arcade-style game in which the player controls the bird, which moves persistently to the right. The player is tasked with navigating the bird through pairs of trees that have equally sized gaps placed at random heights. the bird automatically gravitates and only ascends when the player taps the touchscreen or spacebar. Each successful pass through a pair of trees awards the player one point. Colliding with a tree or the ground ends the gamepl...

How to create zip archives in nodejs

-
I'm going to compile ways in which you can create archives compressed using zip algorithm in nodejs or a similar JavaScript runtime. node-zip is an open source zip archiving utility authord by daraosn and folked from jszip capable of compresding files into a zip archive and extracting zip archives in JavaScript. node-zip is available on npm you can install it in your terminal window by typing; npm install node-zip example usage const  zip = new require('node-zip')() zip.file('test.file', 'John Swana') const data = zip.generate({base64:false,compression:'DEFLATE'}) console.log(data) How to unzip a zip archive const zip = new require('node-zip')(data, {base64: false, checkCRC32: true}) console.log(zip.files['test.file'])

How to make a html5 breakout game in JavaScript

-
In this tutorial i will walk through the  process of developing a simple breakout game in JavaScript using html5 canvas I'll be using craters.js a compact html5 game engine. in every step i will first explain the procedure in a less technical method later I'll include the snippets of the actual game , a link to the github repository and a live working demo. Game world is 2d space with zero friction and zero gravity in order to avoid applying acceleration to the entities periodically maybe this will be changed later. First entity is a ball an entity with zero friction that upon colliding with an obstacle such as a block, paddle or the the screen boundaries bounces back in the opposite direction the bouncing from left to the right side of the screen is implemented by if(position.x  + radius < 0) // bounce if(velocity > 0) return; // moving velocity *= -1; // change direction direction is only changed if the ball tries to move  beyond the zero position. i have t...
