ion-cloud

JavaScript game engine by Nathaniel Inman.

Description

Ion Cloud is a JavaScript game engine available on npm at @ion-cloud/core. Alternatively you can individually choose and load just the components you need:

• Easel : sets up a canvas that can fill a screen and automatically resize
  • here is the documentation @ion-cloud/easel
  • Supports both traditional 2d canvas and a WebGL enhanced 2d canvas
• Ion : tweaning and basic animation instance
  • here is the documentation @ion-cloud/ion
• Cloud : animation collections and scene management
  • here is the documentation @ion-cloud/cloud
• Ink : A tiny color manipulation and translation library with robust validation and error handling that shines in places where you can't trust the input color or random generation and games
  • here is the documentation @ion-cloud/ink
  • translate between color spaces: hex, cmyk, rgb, rgba, hsl, hsla, hsva, hsv, hsba or hsb
  • apply weights to r(ed),g(green),b(lue),l(ightness) or s(aturation)
  • apply a minimum or maximum lightness threshold on a color
  • coerce a color to a certain lightness percent
  • apply a minimum or maximum saturation threshold on a color
  • coerce a color to a certain saturation percent
  • apply an alpha value
  • output to javascript object {r,g,b,a}
• Phaser : gradient animation and initialization helper
  • here is the documentation @ion-cloud/phaser
• Dice: take a complex dice string and compute results based on it.
  • here is the documentation @ion-cloud/dice
  • 3d8+23-2d4 would roll 3 8-sided dice, add 23 then subtract the results of 2 rolled 4-sided dice
• Compass: JavaScript mapping classes and random generation algorithms.
  • here is the documentation @ion-cloud/compass

If you need help setting up a project using @ion-cloud/core you can use a scaffolding engine like slush. For more information see this project.

Setup

You can install the entire JavaScript ion-cloud engine simply by

npm i @ion-cloud/core

and then importing only what you need into your project with

import {Easel,Ion} from '@ion-cloud/core';

Alternatively you can install only the components you need such as

npm i -g @ion-cloud/dice

And then using just those in your project

import {Dice} from '@ion-cloud/dice';
