Based in Manchester in the UK? This Saturday (25th March) you can attend a day long course all about browser based game development using JavaScript and Phaser:
"This course is an intermediate level series of practical hands-on mini lessons, which focuses on creating games right in the browser using pure JavaScript and the amazing Phaser games framework. Firstly we’ll be learning how to quickly get things moving (and exploding!) using nothing but JavaScript, a text editor and a can-do attitude. Following this we’ll get a little deeper and start to explore the amazing Phaser games framework – using real examples of the games we all know and love to get into what makes a really fun videogame really sing. This course is also highly flexible, and open entirely to fun tangents and directions that we as a group would like to explore.
The overall aim of the course is to give attendees a quick and effective jump-start to games programming and design concepts – although we’re using JavaScript, these lessons and concepts apply absolutely everywhere.
This course starts at 10:00am and finishes at 5:00pm. Lunch is served at 12:30pm."
