mariogarranz Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I'm looking for a good book covering the basics of HTML5 for games. I'm really interested in knowing how everything works (rendering, audio, game loop) at the lower level, without any frameworks. I have been recommended HTML5 Canvas, and it seems like a really good book. However, it was published 3 years ago, and things have changed a lot in HTML5, so I'm afraid it may not be up to date. Does anybody know about any other book on this topic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
