Sometimes your game or canvas experiment might have one or more layers of animating backgrounds that are set in motion for the player’s movement or some other reason (like creating a parallax effect?). Just had to do something similar the other day. The problem is tricky but with a bit of thinking it seems like I came up with a proper solution!

One of my previous posts talked about implementing gravity in our canvas experiments. Eventually, we made a realistic bouncing ball. We’ll kind of extend that experiment to make a quick fountain explosion on canvas obeying gravity.

Writing Text on canvas is pretty straightforward. All we need to know about is certain properties and methods that are pre-defined on the canvas’s context. You can draw/write all unicode characters using the related methods.
When creating some canvas experiments like a particle emission system or a game, gravity can be a key feature to implement. Figuring out how to implement gravity on an object in terms of coding can be a bit confusing. We’ll try to comprehend it, by putting it into code in a simplified manner. I liek simplicity!

Just like debugging any other thing, doing the same for websocket traffic can be really useful. Not sure if firebug does that, but inspecting your websocket traffic in chrome dev tools is definitely possible.
