The plugins site is currently in development.

We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.

jQuery Word Game

Submitted by sohnee on October 6, 2010 - 6:10pm

The jQuery Word Game project is a plugin that creates word grids for use in word games.

It has a configurable grid size and an optional timer and collects user submitted words. The plugin ensures the words meet a configurable minimum length, are not duplicated and only use each letter in the grid once. After the timer counts down to zero, the grid is disabled.

I am currently designing the technique for validating the submitted words.

jPhysics

This plugin gives physics properties to selected DOM elements. You set position, velocity, acceleration, apply forces and update the elements states. You also get a n-dimensional Vector class with basic vectorial operations. Specially useful for JS games.

Example:

//Applies physics properties to element with 'box' id
$('#box').physics({
position:new $.Vector(0,400),
velocity:new $.Vector(5,-10)),
maxVelocity:new $.Vector(10,10),
minVelocity:new $.Vector(-10,-10),
minPosition:new $.Vector(0,0),
maxPosition:new $.Vector(800,400)
});

//Defines 2 forces
var gravity = new $.Vector(0,0.2);
var wind = new $.Vector(-0.05,0);

//Sets a timer with 30ms interval to apply the 2 forces and update element state
//Applies 3 time steps per update
setInterval('$("#box").applyForces(gravity,wind).updatePhysics(3)',30);

gameQuery

Submitted by selim on June 25, 2008 - 11:45pm

gameQuery is a jQuery plug-in to help make javascript games easier to develop by adding some simple mechanism and commodity. It's still in a very early stage of development, it may change a lot in the version to come. Since version 0.2.0 the API should stay compatible with the other version to come. Have a look at this and this demo ! You can also have a look at the collision demo here. A tutorial can be read here.
