Fizzy is a library designed to provide all the functionality of JBox2D (which it is built off of), but make everything a little simpler. To use fizzy, you will need the source code at . This source code will then need to be compiled using it's build script (build.xml). This will create a fizzy jar you can use in your project.

Box2D (Overview) the fundamental structure of fizzy, jBox2D, and LIBGdx Box2D --The three engines listed above all have slightly different ways of organizing the way that physical bodies interact, but they are all based off of the Box2D engine at their core. As such there are several similarities between them. This manual will try to go over the basics of Box2D.

Physics --Many games, including platformers, RTS, and even the odd RPG, require objects to interact with each other realistically. Sometimes, the collisions are easy to detect and resolve, and can be handled with custom code. However, many games require their objects to have complex shapes, or to bounce, slide, or otherwise collide in a way that is realistic, complex, and fast. This is where a physics engine excels.

Android Workspace Setup and "Bounceanator" Sample Game ----In order to create a game for Android, it is easiest to install eclipse and the android plugin for eclipse () ----Once you have these, you will need to get a Slick-AE jar. This can be done by checking out the source for both projects and running the build script in Slick-AE.

Thetranslate method in the Graphics class can be used to translate the entire context. This is useful for creating the effect of moving the view-port. A full screen shake effect can be created by calling Graphics.translate on varying offsets and eventually returning to the original state.

Intro I wrote this library to extends Slick's support for TiledMap's. You can find it here. Snippets I have compiled a list of snippets of code, as there isn't really a point in writing a tutorial, without knowing what the purpose of the game is.
