Welcome to the advanced 2D game mechanics documentation! Here, we dive deeper into complex systems that elevate your game development skills. Let's explore key concepts and techniques.

🛠️ Core Mechanics to Master

  • Physics Engines
    Implement realistic movement with Box2D or Matter.js. Use 2D_physics_engine for visual examples of gravity and collisions.

  • State Machines
    Design flexible character behavior using finite state machines. Example: 

    const state = {
  idle: 'idle',
  run: 'run',
  jump: 'jump'
};

💡 Pro Tips for Smooth Gameplay

  • Use tilemaps for efficient level design
  • Implement delta time for consistent movement
  • Add parallax scrolling to create depth
