Timothy Stander's Projects

• A-Frame Test

  A demo using the A-Frame framework for 3D and VR web content.

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: HTML, A-Frame, HTML, JavaScript

• Centipede

  A classic arcade-style game remake.

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: HTML5, JavaScript, Canvas API

• Cubes

  An unoptimized cube voxel-based game. Like minecraft.

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: HTML5, WebGL, JavaScript

• Project (Advanced Cubes)

  An optimized version of the Cubes project with much faster rendering, more block types, and more features.

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: HTML5, CSS,WebGL, Rust, WebAssembly, Javascript, WebWorkers

• Gravity

  A particle simulation demonstrating sudo gravitational forces.

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: JavaScript

• Particles

  An interactive particle system that reacts to user input. Mouse or touch and drag to cast spells

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: JavaScript

• Harry Speller

  An AI speech recognition model for `nox` and `lumos`.

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: The free google model that I forgot the name of

• Raster World

  A 2D world with a grid of scenes. You can move between scenes and interact with objects via speech or keyboard

  Authors: Laura, Jeanette, Sarah, Timothy
  Technical Requirements: HTML5, JavaScript, Canvas API, Speech recognition API

• Tower Defense

  A tower defense game with large map sizes. Towers can be mazed. A tower cannot be placed on top of an enemy, nor block a route from anywhere to a start/end zone.

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: HTML5, CSS,JavaScript, Canvas API
  Enhancement notes: Here I got firsthand experience that the JS JIT flakey. The pathfinding system should probably be moved to Rust. The rendering should be moved to WebGL

• Water Puzzle Sort Solver

  An instant solver for the overly popular water sort game, written in an afternoon to demenstrate that the game was meaningless.

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: Javascript
  Language note: This does have a python implementation (that I wrote first), but the JS version is faster and supports images

• Tanks

  A peer-to-peer tanks game with computer ai tanks, and rust wasm accelerated calculations.

  Authors: Timothy, Jeanette, Sarah
  Technical Requirements: HTML5, JavaScript, Rust, WebAssembly, WebGL, WebWorkers, Peerjs
  Optimization notes: Here the JS JIT was so bad that a single line change in a different module quadrupled the calculation time. Thus I rewrote those parts in Rust. Also split the game update into two parts that execute in parrallel. Also switched from context2d to WebGL. This to get FPS from 30-60 to constant 120 on potato device.

• Destiny Toons

  The 'Webtoon' version of the famous Destiny Quiz android game.

  Authors: Timothy, Jeanette
  Technical Requirements: Scratch for making images, Javascript

• Book of Mormon

  The entire book of mormon on one page, for easy searching.

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: HTML, CSS, JavaScript

• Mandlebrot

  The Mandelbrot set live rendered with zoom support via WebGL

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, WebGL

• Simple Image Transformations

  To shrink oversized pixelated images (why use 4x4 pixels, instead of just pixels?), and scale them with nearest scaling. Also add transparency color

  Authors: Timothy
  Technical Requirements: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Context2d
