Random Images Falling Like Rain In Canvas (javascript)

So I have been playing around with canvas. Trying to simulate random falling objects, drawing the background image is no problem and not the 2nd img that is supposed to simulate a

Solution 1:

Your loop is actually pretty close. The biggest problem you would have is that you can't just maintain 1 x and 1 y value, you have to maintain that per image. So I modified your loop a bit to push an object on the array that has an x,y, and speed value. The speed value gives you nice randomization of the movement, so everything doesn't come down at the same speed:

var ctx;
var imgBg;
var imgDrops;
var x = 0;
var y = 0;
var noOfDrops = 50;
var fallingDrops = [];


    functiondrawBackground(){  
        ctx.drawImage(imgBg, 0, 0); //Background
    }

    functiondraw() {
        drawBackground();

        for (var i=0; i< noOfDrops; i++)
        {
        ctx.drawImage (fallingDrops[i].image, fallingDrops[i].x, fallingDrops[i].y); //The rain drop

        fallingDrops[i].y += fallingDrops[i].speed; //Set the falling speedif (fallingDrops[i].y > 450) {  //Repeat the raindrop when it falls out of view
        fallingDrops[i].y = -25//Account for the image size
        fallingDrops[i].x = Math.random() * 600;    //Make it appear randomly along the width    
        }

        }
    }

    functionsetup() {
        var canvas = document.getElementById('canvasRegn');

        if (canvas.getContext) {
                ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');

                    imgBg = newImage();
            imgBg.src = "http://lorempixel.com/600/600/sports/";
        setInterval(draw, 36);
        for (var i = 0; i < noOfDrops; i++) {
            var fallingDr = newObject();
            fallingDr["image"] =  newImage();
        fallingDr.image.src = 'http://lorempixel.com/10/10/sports/';

            fallingDr["x"] = Math.random() * 600;
            fallingDr["y"] = Math.random() * 5;
            fallingDr["speed"] = 3 + Math.random() * 5;
            fallingDrops.push(fallingDr);
            }

        }
    }

setup();
