Book Two in the Series, Learn WebGL
The e-book,
Create 3D Games
,
teaches how to make two similar 3D games, with WebGL.
The first game, 3D Globe Game
,
demonstrates a range of concepts useful for Web developers. Concepts include efficiency, responsive Web design, and optimization.
Learn to create the Globe Game
where players answer twenty questions to find countries on the globe.
The 3D Biplane Game
,
displays a biplane aircraft. Find parts on the airplane.
The Biplane Game
reuses and reinforces concepts explained with the Globe Game
.
The Biplane Game
also demonstrates how to use the book's software to make your own games.
The book's games run on mobile devices and desktops. Devices such as cell phones, mobile phones including Androids, iPhones, and Windows Phones, benefit from optimization techniques discussed in the book. Optimization techniques allow games to download and run quickly.
