Les algorithmes de détection de collisions dans les jeux en 2 dimensions dépendent de la forme des objets à détecter (par exemple : rectangle contre rectangle, cercle contre rectangle, cercle contre cercle…). Habituellement, il est préférable d'utiliser une forme générique appelée masque de collision («hitbox») qui couvrira l'entité.
