6 Months of Learning JavaScript Game Dev in 6 Minutes

[@plasticsamalt6633]

As someone who just started my 3D programming journey, learning JS (and code in general), this video is inspiring as hell! Subscribed

[@SuboptimalEng]

Awesome to see more people starting to learn 3D coding in JavaScript 🙌

[@plasticsamalt6633]

​@@SuboptimalEng I would love some tips, because basically threejs is my goal here, and I just started learning JS.

[@SuboptimalEng]

@@plasticsamalt6633 If you just started learning JS, then I'd recommend making 2D games in HTML canvas. It's a lot easier to get started there. Once you understand the fundmentals, you can start picking up frameworks like Three JS.

You can do a lot with JS game dev! Definitely worth trying out 👀

[@RajJaiswal538]

I feel the Rubik's cube is hardest among them in terms of logic And also has a lot of potential of some unintentional amazing bugs : P

[@SuboptimalEng]

Agreed. Sometimes, the bug is better than the code

Rubik's cube logic is probably quite simple if you understand Abstract Algebra and Group Theory. (Which I don't.)

Hello! I just wanna say thank you for the video it did really gave me a perspective in game dev in JavaScript as I'm starting and only doing it as a hobby, but I would really like to pursue some projects of my own so this is great inspiration 👍🏼

Thanks, Valeria! A couple months ago, I was also not sure about making games in JavaScript. But now, I think it is the best decision I made 🙌

[@stickguy9109]

Nice video but there's one thing I should point out. If you know any programming language like Js for example unity is not hard. I say go for it, if you wanna get serious with gamedev a library is not an artistic tool

[@DodaGarcia]

Aside from the the Rubik's Cube, it seems everything you've thought of building in 3D is just a 2D experience extruded into 3D space with nothing of value added from that extrusion - or like in the Tic Tac Toe case, actively making the experience worse. If you're adamant in building 3D games it might make sense to take inspiration from other 3D experiences and see what they give the player in return for the added computing power and cognitive load they require.

You should have sticked with Unity if you wanted to make an actual game. ThreeJs too is really cool and trendy if you want to make a website with some stunning 3d effects

[@SuboptimalEng]

Three.js is good for small game dev experiments but I realized I needed a game engine to build something more complex. Started learning Unity a month ago! I go over this in my latest video 😅

[@aleksd286]

@@SuboptimalEng I think absence of physics engine, marketplace for assets, and big community makes usage of ThreeJs as a game dev option makes it not the best option

The rubiks cube bug reminds me of another bug I got in my Matlab class when I accidentally coded perfect 3D rotation on a 2D graph due to some error in my math formula lol Can't help but appreciate these bugs

[@SuboptimalEng]

Have to agree here. Often times the bugs give more interesting visualizations than the fixes.

[@nabinbhattrai1506]

thanks so much man

[@jawyor-k3t]

conclusions? was it worth it? what are your future plans?

[@SuboptimalEng]

Was it worth it? I think so - it helped me get started quickly. But I also realized that lots of game dev/graphics jobs require knowledge of C++ or C#. So if that's your end goal, starting like this might not be worth it for you. Currently, I'm really interested in graphics programming so I've been learning how to write GLSL shaders. For this, you don't even need Three.js or Unity, just Shadertoy.

From any js library can we create any game like tycoon used cars game? Like car moves in (3d object), follow route, park in given slot etc??

You can make small fun games in JS, but if it is super complex then it might be better to go with Unity or Unreal.

That’s great to hear! You don’t need much math unless you want to become a shader magician.

[@MHW-nu7pz]

@SuboptimalEng Really? Only the shader requires advanced math?

[@SuboptimalEng]

Depends on how complex your applications are. Most of the games I made in this video do not use math beyond trigonometry. The last game uses physics, but I imported a library to help with that.
