austin Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I've just finished up HTML5GameEngine.com - the goal is to have a place to find, compare, and rate HTML5 Game Engines. Sure, this list on GitHub is nice, but it's limited in what it can do. Listed are each of the game engines I'm aware of that are stable and actively updated. Under the "More Details" link is a basic description, ratings, sample games, and important links. I'd appreciate any feedback!

rich Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Nice idea but once that list gets pretty long it's going to be a bore to search through it Personally I quite like the visual approach Indie DB takes: http://www.indiedb.com/engines/ - it's up to you to click and explore and there are plenty of screen shots, etc. austin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austin Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Got around to filling out info for the remaining engines. The goal is to not have the list get too long - just listing the engines that are actively maintained and widely used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny! Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Hey Austin, interesting project. Side looks clean and you focus on the key element, the game engines list, that is good imho. Really like add a review feature, tags description and that you added links to example games. Do not know - maybe you should separate costs into price and license.

rich Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I really like this approach to a similar thing too: http://makegames.pixelprospector.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyzhak Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Cool but I think it's better to separate architectural frameworks like Crafty, LimeJS, Cocos2d-X and rendering engines common propose like EaselJS, Three.js.Also I'm developing free modular game engine (http://darlingjs.github.io) it's architectural framework. How it can appear on a list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Hi the idea for the domain is cool, I highly recommend using this: http://www.datatables.net/ With suck a tool search, filter, and sort will be breeze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugeen Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I'd like to see more details for each engine, like tutorials, examples and / or screencasts. I can help you for that. austin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiper34 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Where is Tululoo HTML5 game maker? Do you know about it? It great, it is free and i used it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austin Posted June 7, 2013 Author Share Posted June 7, 2013 I haven't seen a whole lot of activity from Tululoo recently. The goal with the list to to have the actively maintained and respected engines. This implies it hasn't been updated in over 5 months, and the most recent version was just a small change.

Raiper34 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Compilgames make HTML5 export for their Game Develop. It is like Construct 2 but open source and free http://www.compilgames.net/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austin Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 Florian reached out to me about that a couple of weeks ago. To this point I haven't really seen any games developed with it, so I'm holding off on adding it for now. I've had to reject a lot of engines from the list in order to maintain a smaller, high quality subset of the presumably hundreds of game engines out there.

Daikrys Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I've had to reject a lot of engines from the list in order to maintain a smaller, high quality subset of the presumably hundreds of game engines out there. somehow not the best idea cause the url says "list of html5 game engines" and not "a list of engines worth mentioned in my personal opinion"instead i would prefer a seperat section with this quality engines and still try to list all active engines out there sure this might take a bit of planning to not make a big messed list, but i think you can do that!

austin Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 Fair enough. https://github.com/bebraw/jswiki/wiki/Game-Engines is a good replacement until I get around to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
