sicknot Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 In short, does Phaser have a VR game mode? Well, I'm looking to develop VR games, either played with headset or turning your phone. In the past I used Aframe to do some simple 'look around and spot stuff' kinda games with panorama (hdri) sky images. I want to take the advantage of real game engine like Phaser which includes physics, score or time tracking etc.. so I don't have to write everything from scratch. Any ideas? Thanks everyone! I'm new here and this is my first post on this forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
end3r Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 It does not have such mode. Phaser is 2D while VR is 3D. You could make a 2D game inside 3D environment if you're crazy enough, but I suggest you should look into 3D frameworks like Babylon or PlayCanvas.

I have tried most of WebGL frameworks such as ThreeJs, Babylon, Aframe etc.. I'm specifically looking for a game engine that fully supports HTML5 browsers on desktop and mobile (unlike Unity woot!!). PlayCanvas looks promising. I'll look into it. Your suggestion is valuable. Thanks mate !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
end3r Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Happy to help. You know, A-Frame is totally capable of serving as a game framework (see 28 examples of that from js13kGames 2017), I've used it for that purpose myself many times too. If you need physics etc you'll find components in the Registry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sicknot Posted September 15, 2017 Author Share Posted September 15, 2017 Yes you're right, I'm putting all my efforts on Aframe right now. Btw, i'm having some issues with PlayCanvas. I just tried to see this example https://playcanv.as/p/sAsiDvtC/ on my Moto Z, chrome browser and the 3D room doesn't load but the objects in the scene do. Also it costs to host on my own server. PlayCanvas seems a no-no to me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
