Updated semi-useful, half-done JavaScript 2D game engine (featuring Streets of Rage 2 characters)
New version’s up. It’s much more developed than when I last blogged about it, but there’s still plenty to do. I’ll write about it in detail later.
Great in: FF 4, Chrome 6+
Good in: FF 3.6 (a bit slow)
Dodgy in: Safari 4 (audio samples are always reloaded from the network, otherwise it’s ok), Opera 11 (input problems; the browser thinks the numpad keys are the same as the numbers above QWERTY).
Tested in FF4 and was surprised with the good performance even with 25+ characters on screen, nice work — I look forward to seeing future versions.
