I'm trying to figure out what is the best way to begin creating an effect like (https://howifight.53.com) where the background is scrollable/draggable in all directions.

I know the technology behind this is pixi.js however, I can't seem to dig out how this effect is achieved. Any pointers in a good direction would be awesome.

First, you need to set up the page and styles.

You need a containing element to contain the HTML you're moving around (using overflow:hidden). Then you need an element within that to actually move around with JavaScript.

Then you need to implement some drag/drop functionality. Capture mousedown, then capture mousemove and update on each requestAnimationFrame, then stop dragging with mouseup is triggered.

That's a very basic overview, but I've mocked up an example for you to look at: jsFiddle. Feel free to ask any questions.
