-50 minutes: Shttt, I'm overloaded with Information and Ideas now of what Game I'll be doing.
-60 minutes: Hands down! This Tutorial is the best I have seen.
After 1 Hour of appreciation, realized to check how many views did this tutorial accumulated now.
Sad to say that it only has more than 100k Views. 😢.
Everyone! Let's help the man spread this JavaScript tutorial to show our appreciation for uploading a very informative video for FREE.
It's at 475k views now? What do you mean?
Do i need to know canvas before starting this project?
@@unibrow9384 no. But u need to have background in Programming to understand. Specially in constructors class and methods.
@@TheOnlySirC yah, it's good and I'm happy as he deserves views more than that with the value of the tutorial.
@@jasonbatester5784 Yeah, I'm familiar with those and JS as well.
did anyone else wake up to this
Yeah wtff?
yea me 2
Yes. Weird isn’t it?
Yes 😂
ME TOO
The fact that me and many other people just woke up to this playing makes me wonder if most of the views this video gets is from people not even trying to watch the video
Bro, I went to sleep, I woke up and this was here
Update: IT HAPPENED AGAIN WTH
Me too
Haha I was watching a blender tutorial and fell asleep and woke to this. but I also use HTML and JS
@@SavageGTI same, I am also a programmer but, why always this video? Why my cellphone just decides to stop at this exact video?
Huh first time ? I don't why I wake up to this and other vid a full assembly course so I am doul learning while sleeping 😂😂@@lolcat69
same
Why and how is everyone (including me) waking up to this video. I was watching a slow mo guys video last night and this is playing in the morning.
Might as well stick around. This seems kinda fun
This is gonna be very out of context but
Anyone noticed that 💀 has became the new O_O
it keeps happening
Oh my god not again
@@Oogabooga147Lmao time to become a developer bud
I was scrolling through my RUclips history and figured out that this video was running while I was sleeping.
ME TOO
Wth me too lol
yeah me as well lmaooo
Same so annoying
Yeah!
Who else woke up here
Omfg i woke up without even knowing that im watching that video
how the fuck are we all waking up to this video
2 hours mind you I think I got drugged 😅😅
Bro Yes
Fell asleep watching LGR
Just woke up and I realize that I actually learn more stuff from this man while I was sleeping then I learned in school.
I used to wake up to a video of a guy in a field raining asmr, but now I’ve awoken to this. Perhaps a new era in my life has started.
Absolutely amazing tutorial i literally watched 1h while asleep😂 and i learned so much. Btw why do everybody else wake up to this video
Yeah, quite a few of us. I've become a sleep coder by now lol
Hmmm it might be a suggestion feature triggered by time of day. If everyone is getting under the same circumstances.
I watched all 4 lol
God is tryna tell us something lolol
@@joshluna1956 make games?
Dude what. How is everyone waking up to this, i fell asleep watching zelda gameplay. How did i make it 40 mins into this video
I woke up to watching this video and am now following the tutorial for fun. I don't know how I ended up here but I am glad. Thank you for making this video
Howd i wake up here
I slept watching mkbhd waveform. Woke up to this.
I've been on and off trying to learn game prgrmn. This is incredible
Literally i'm here bc the fucking same reason
This man is giving these tutorials for free! What a beast.
Indeed!
@Focus making people happy makes him rich
there is something called AdSense
@@GeekBastion And AdBlock 😉
@@ChrisCourses unfortunately that is something that sucks for content creators on RUclips but you guys can have paid ads inside the video itself and you talking about it so AdBlock is useless in that case
This is like the 6th time your videos came up while I was asleep....the algorithm clearly likes you😂
I’ve never watched any coding videos or any videos like this ever I fell asleep with RUclips on and woke up halfway through at 3 am 😂
Why did I go to sleep and everyone is waking up here😂
Update: NAHH WHAT IT HAPPENED AGAIN BRUH
I've only seen 46 minutes so far but this is one of the best tutorial i've ever seen. I think the most complicated part of coding is finding the best way to summarize the logic into objects and decide what has to be structed and what not.
I'm curently on a little game project to improve my skills (a mix between fire emblem and advance wars).... and ilt's exactly the part I am struggling with now 😅
@@neilquechon8716 Same. I'm currently busy with a WoW-bot (I know, don't you judge me). Since there is a cut-down version of LUA beeing used by the game, object orientated programming does not really work that well.
Also the platform I use does not allow to split your scripts into multiple files, so the result is around 3k lines of code. The project isn't really fun anymore, because its just so hard to find what you're looking for in such a mess. I hope to be soon done with this, to focus on licensing the software and other cool stuff.
@@timnonik2736 For now I feel a little the same. I sometime try to think to far ahead and it seem a little overwhelming to make a architecture who would easily fit everything. So I try to cut these thougts and find a good balance between "ok, this is solid" and "ok for know"
But for my part I know that if I do sufficently well, the project would become funnier and funnier to work on
@@neilquechon8716 Yep. Thats what happens a lot to me, and if I realise that my way makes no sense, it frustrates me. Even tho this is normal, you cant just come up with the perfect way to do it in first place. Maybe your first approach will rise in quality over time with different projects, but you cant expect it to be perfect in first place.
ruclips.net/video/lhUmi27cDcs/видео.html the sauce
This tutorial is amazing I learned so much about inheritance and constructors made sense for the first time ever and now class components, hooks and props now make more sense I used to get so confused about "passing props" so much was shown here, switch, cases, conditionals, classes understanding the scope of this. Amazing so much learning without realizing it
Glad to see you still uploading videos. Keep going!
Been studying CS for about a year, I could never write this on my own yet but I’m following 95% of what your doing. Thanks for this, big help and confidence booster.
same here im kinda new to javascript
never say never :)
you can, bro. You know it deep inside, everyone knows actually)
This is just AMAZING! thanks Chris! Hope to see more of your high-quality tutorial
Man this is fantastic. I love how you explain every single detail and also add context.
I can't thank you enough for the amount of info that you've provided. I started this project a month ago and now I can gladly say that l've finished my first big project / game using JS. Thank you sooo much Chris, Respect from Egypt.
I spent all weekend going through this and building along.
This was so amazing. Thank for sharing this.
the game is responsive ?
Thank you very much for a another great tutorial. I have learn so much from you, you cant imagine. Chris you are the best! A very VERY good teacher. Stay healthy and strong!
Man i wish you were around when i first started learning JS. Would have made it sooo much easier! Really amazing tutorial! Please continue with these long in-depth tutorials, you're doing really great! Thanks alot man!
I've only seen 28 minutes so far but this is one of the best tutorial I've ever seen. A blessing.
Literally same for me. I've only been coding for a month or so at this point, and not even JavaScript yet, but this still helped me understand a lot of functionality.
wooow i think you're not Frontend dev, you are Game dev! Keep going! Good luck 😀😁😁🔥🔥🔥

Absolutely amazing tutorial! Its exactly my type, practical and without assuming I know anything, also no unnecessary libraries or databases I couldnt care less about, thank you!!
This is an amazing tutorial, it goes step by step, which should also be how we should do it in real projects, adding stuffs when we need them.
This was such an amazing tutorial! I was looking for a cool project to demo to some eager middle schoolers and found your video. I thought I would just skim it to see if it would be a viable demo and ended up following along all the way through. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!
I'm in the 2 hour mark, and the quality of this tutorial is amazingly high. You explain what each part of your code does. You explain the overall algorithm that you use. You use visual tools to draw onscreen (like the red rectangles) to better explain your ideas. Also, you left a link so that people can download the assets that you used in this video.
If I had money, I would pay for your courses. I don't mind watching ads in this video. I want to support you in any way that I can. You're an amazing instructor, and you clearly like teaching.
Same broo
This is the bomb, love creating games in JS! Love 2D fighters (Street Fighters), isometric fighters (Final Fight) and racing games (Outrun) and making their counterparts in JS. What a great tool! :)
Not only is this for free , he’s literally explaining each line of code in a way anyone can understand. you’ve gained a subscriber, thank you so much 🇿🇼
I've only seen 1h 4min so far but this is one of the best tutorial i've ever seen. I think the most complicated part of coding is finding the best way to summarize the logic into objects and decide what has to be structed and what not. A blessing.
did you just copy and paste the comment and just changed the time? 💀💀
@@senpai3412 not one but two comments, they were so similar that I only subtracted the time they said and added it to the latest one, also one part of my comment that seems odd is copied from one of these comments as well
Speechless! Cannot believe that it is free! This was such an amazing tutorial, explainations were thorough and after watching this video not only did I get an amazing JS game, I also got a bunch of ideas how to add extra content and answers for implementation of those features were already explained in the video. Keep doing this amazing content man!
Jus starting a javascript course and I don't fully comprehend functions and this guy just goes and casually creates a fighting game to post free on youtube. What a legend
Has following along helped you to understand functions?
@@lbb2rfarangkiinok In deed it has. Much love to this guy
I really loved the process, thank you for sharing it with us.
You deserve million subscribers.
What a fantastic tutorial! Easily one of the best ones to get you started in JS Game Development
Awesome dude! Glad to see these game videos are blowing up for you. The JavaScript content that you've been putting out for years is gold!
Thanks man, definitely felt like RUclips was sleeping on me the past year or two, but glad to see things starting to take off now 😄
So cool and so easy! I bet a lot of newby people will be so thankful for videos and channel like yours
Just finished and deployed. That was so much fun. I hardly slept this weekend. Learned a ton. Thanks a lot.
It is amazing how you instantly answer all the questions I have as soon as I have them ! Great job ! And your website is also incredible, a new gold mine !
Why did I wake up here AGAIN
Amazing! Can't believe you put out an entire 4h course on RUclips. Really appreciate it, learned a lot!
I was feeling incredibly demoralized until I started watching this tutorial. Thank you!
I wrote my first game in LUA, the physics are quite difficult to implement, especially if in your head the characters have some kind of interaction with the environment, I think this is a good example of a first game with the beautiful pixel design, for Of course, the ideas are so many that sometimes it frustrates us not being able to implement them quickly but if we like this, it's worth it, there is no better feeling that something works just the way you like it. :)
You just made me realize I don't love web development. I want to be a video game developer. Thank you so much for helping me come to this realization. I've been working on following this tutorial and, throughout the course of the video, I've had more fun doing this than ANYTHING I've ever done or can Imagine doing in web development.
Just commenting because i really appreciate you putting this out there. I realize because of this video that learning to program games is the fastest and easiest way for me to learn the programming languages. This video is my first step into your world and im grateful that you decided to hold the door open.
Holy moly. Just.. wow. Love this content, and your other videos will be amazing to go through if they're even half as good as this!
Granted, admittedly quite the time commitments, but a relatively immensely small price to pay for what's essentially free shadowing!
Seriously, thank you kindly for your work.
i fell asleep watching youtube, wake up and check that this video is completely watched in my recently watched, the scary thing is that the was coding in my dream. I’ve never coded before
im 100% in tutorial hell, BUT i love the way youre teaching and explaining your processes, 100% subed
I literally didn't know any javascript before watching this but understood nearly everything you said. Good work, cheers mate.
Man, as a Brazilian, I must say that your content is the best I've ever seen!! I will definitely do this project.
this guy is very underrated
Hi Chris, These tutorials are amazing 👏. Could you also make a video on making it work on mobile too. Thanks!
Thank you for this amazing tutorial. I had given up on web designing but this gave me motivation to work again.
Love your tutorials, my portfolio is evolving thanks to you!!!
What a surprise to see my environment asset pack in such great tutorial :)
I’m so grateful for the technology and how you can learn anything with the press of a button! Thank you for making this video 😊
This has to be one of the best tutorial videos out there. You have an excellent way of concisely explaining everything you do, as you do it. Four hours extremely well spent! I'll be coming back to code along with some time soon. One feature I particularly want to see implemented is blocking and parrying, maybe even a posture meter.
You could release that as a playlist with 10-15 episodes, I think it's easier to keep pace. But I just watched the first minutes and I'm loving it!!! Thank you!!!
the rider on the side of the video basically serves to divide it up into multiple sections, but I did not notice it until about the 90 minute mark haha
This was fantastic a year ago and it's nice to see it get the recognition it deserves - 3.8 million views.
Well done and thanks for your efforts, epic vid.
I saw first 10 minutes and instantly followed him. Man you are great. Keep doing the amazing work.
This is a clear example to anyone starting programming that the issue is not how well you can code but how you can use code to solve a problem.
Wow, I really loved this tutorial. Thank you so much!
The only thing I edited was a small if statement to get rid of jumping in the air.
And I'm not very firm with github, but I had to make a commit of the code in my fighting-game folder before I could push it to github. This is most likely trivial for everyone accustomed to it, but I struggled some minutes. :D
I'm new to js, could you please tell me how you fixed the mid air jump?
@@auberginepomegranate2742 For the eventListener on keydown I edited the case for "w" and "ArrowUp" with this 'if (player.velocity.y === 0) player.velocity.y = -20;'
for anyone seeing this, this code also has a bug where if the players velocity gets to zero in the air the person can time it right and still double jump. It is best to use a boolean variable@@slein1337
amazing tutorial!!! this carried me through a project. would love an advanced refined version of this game project such as side wall detection and AI!
There's no doubt about it. This is really good💥
I haven't worked with HTML canvas before now, and I can still understand everything very well!!!
Just completed the full video and want to say I would happily pay for a premium course that expands on this. I've been wanting to learn about SF style AI for a while now. Would also be good to learn about things like stun lock and inputting special moves. I've got a general idea about how to do things like this but would love to see a clean way of doing it.
Would love to make one at some point, just have to clear out the backlog of Pokemon, Space Invaders, and Pacman first 😅
This content is great. If you decide to do another one I'd like to see a strategy game with ai like Age of Empires type.
thank you for providing these comprehensive tutorials for free! insanely helpful
I don't have a computer but I just found this channel. This is what I've been looking for most my life.
I hope you can get a pc somehow freind and start your programming. I'm sure it will happen one day soon. if you have a library maybe you can go there and work?
@@fasteditsyt farted
Amazing work and great content 👏
I’m currently studying JS, html, css etc. to switch careers but secretly my goal is to develop my own games. This video is exactly what I needed for inspiration that I’m on the right track! I understood so much of it.
Truly awesome to post this entire 4-hour tutorial touching SO many subjects from Object Oriented Programming to classes and methods and the DOM and html and css and even GitHub! Seriously broad lesson! Can’t thank you enough for doing it and I hope it gets lots of people to sign up for your other premium lessons! Create that passive income and live the dream! 👍👍😁
goodluck
Good luck and could you please help me with something,do you perhaps know which code editor he used, if you don't,which one did you use?
@@blackdragon4293 I think he used Sublime Text but I also recommend VS Code
@@isaiahthompkins614 thanks alot
Wow I have same goal about game dev and passive income but I know it's very difficult. I don't use JavaScript or web stuff for games.
bro i fr just woke up before school and this video is here
dude sat down for 4 hours and made a step by step tutorial, that is a testament to the amount of focus and mental stamina it takes to be a programmer/software engineer. crazy, Ive always wanted to learn and have started but the focus iw what I struggle with.
Hello, i really liked what you did so i made my own game following your tutorials, I didnt copy/paste any single line of code, first i watched and understood all the chapters one by one then i wrote my own implementation.
So here's what i did:
- Typescript instead of js
- Added backwards animations and sprites (attack in both directions)
- Fixed some bugs like infinite jumping, cross the edges, prevent attacking while attacking, etc...
- Added new sounds & attack animations while attacking, this last only triggers while on the air
- Added Figther stats, such name, HP, ATT, DEF, VEL, these stats affects the actual gameplay
- Changed some sprites, added white animation to second player Take Hit.png
There are many things to do after, with all of this, like character select, you can make character act different if you set different stats on them. Also i tried to apply the `hold` property of the Sprites individually but since this is coming from the parent, so the sprites list should return a list of intances of Sprites rather than a plain object so you can set the hold indivially on them, problem is, passing the position to each of them.
Saying this, hope you like it as much i did yours!

Cheers!!!
Hey, amazing work. I tested out your demo, however, it has a 1-2 second delay for each action.
How did you fix the prevent attack while attacking bug? This has been bothering me for a while and I can't seem to figure out what's causing it.
@@candymanmonster4880 I added some websocket support to play online, It goes smooth for me
Prevent the attacking bug: Fighter.ts line 72
@@snakone Thanks, but I still couldn't figure out what exactly is causing the prevent attack while attacking bug in Chris's code. Where did he go wrong? If you could explain that to me, it would be really great. Been struggling with it, and it's annoying.
@@snakone Please respond whenever you have time, 2 mins of your time would mean so much to me. Please.
@@candymanmonster4880 before you attacking just check is this.attacking is already true, then return
Hi Chris! 🥵🥵🥵 You are so easy on the eyes it makes it super simple to follow these courses 😉
Can't wait to follow this course. Going to save it for next weekend when I have some time. As always thank you for your hard work putting these together.
Ewwww, desperation :(
Lmaoo. Wtf is this
🐶💢🧹 bonk !!
Whoa, easy there friend 🙂
The best explanation of coding i've ever seen in my entire life, he doesn't just randomly starts the video with 300 const, explained step by step to help you understand the logic, congrats for the quality content
all he did was steal this from CodePen... didn't even credit the original deeloper.
@@dxpdigital5343 wrong, anything on CodePen is taken from this video😶
Amazing tutorial. Thanks to you, I have created my first video game.
Bro, next beginner tutorial on “Coding Enemy AI”? That sounds like it would be AWESOME
Man, you are a machine, awesome
Thanks man, keep up the good work on your channel, you have my support 🙌
Amazing, i already knew canvas but this made me feel like i didnt know anything and you just made me understood everything better (hope that makes sense)
This is a truly epic tutorial Chris. Thanks for sharing.
awesome. All of your tutorial, but what about a multiplayer / socket tutorial to make all of these game online ?
Hello. Thanks for the video. What kind of todo app are you using?
This is one of an awesome creation. Really your efforts are appreciable.
Sometimes I forget why i love JS. You just made a noddle soup of a code there and works like a charm and no one should tell you is wrong ❤️
IMO, it would be better, if you made a single video with basic JavaScript for those who don’t know the language, instead of repeating every tutorial what an eventListener is and how all the little things work.
Thank you very much for the videos, btw!! 😃
this are pretty basic tutorials, right? if you're familiar to JavaScript, what kind of knowledge do you pull out here?
I have a question! First off I want to say, thanks for the tutorial! It's really easy to follow and is exactly what I was looking for. Now as for the question, I was following along the tutorial and got to the end of task #2, however, I was able to infinitely just jump with both UpArrow and the w key. Did I miss something and how do I fix that?
just make a check in the switch that prevent the w and ArrowUp
case 'w':
if (player.velocity.y === 0) {
player.velocity.y = -10;
}
break;
case 'ArrowUp':
if (enemy.velocity.y === 0) {
enemy.velocity.y = -10;
}
break;
}
@@TuRnaDo88 thanks
Whatever your explaining is getting absorbed like water in a sponge, best game mechanics and logic explaination ever
Thank you so much for this Chris, amazing tutorial. Better than any paid tutorial I ever tried.
im about halfway through the tutorial, at the end of the timer part and this tutorial is great! im definitely learning a ton, and when he made mistakes in the video it threw me for a loop and i always panicked untill i resumed the video and realise he fixes those mistakes after XD
this tutorial is really awesome, and im glad i found this!
p.s. 1:43:49 ouch
@Zero im not sure if its just me but theres a but of an audio error where theres a loud blip and i had headphones in with max volume
Did you programmatically flip the enemy images or do you flip the images before importing them? Because I flipped the images, everything looks fine but the death sequence plays in reverse.
Same issue here. Have you sort it out?
thanks for this video, I'm already a front end developer, but I've never used many of the things you taught
Great work Chris downloading this video was totally worth it. You are very talented
This is so awesome man! I've been wanting to create a JS fighting game as part of a larger project, and you've just provided an extremely helpful resource for me to refer to if (more like when 🥲) run into trouble. Can I suggest that you write something up about enemy AI? That would be very cool and helpful.
I was watching art restoration and woke up to this shit💀
Hi Chris can you increase the font size of your codes
Thanks
