Coding Challenge #46.2: Asteroids with p5.js – Part 2

Coding By Builder

This video is Part 2 of a new Coding Challenge: the classic Atari video game Asteroids! In this video, I use JavaScript and HTML5 canvas with the p5.js library to program the “laser” functionality and examine collision detection with the asteroids.

This video is also part of a collaboration with YouTuber Siraj from Sirajology (https://goo.gl/tmFNre). He will program a machine learning bot to play the Asteroids game.
