Javascript Game Engine

[User1902]

 

I once made a small engine in HTML, CSS and Javascript. Just as a hobby, since I have not been involved in Web technologies for a long time. Then I got busy with optimization, and I wondered what in general you can do in the browser. And what the performance will be.

 

 

The result is a small engine with which you can make an isometric RPG like Diablo, Fallout or Commandos. And when I screwed on the grid and the pathfinding algorithm, I realized that you can quickly do both the strategy and the quest. In short, a game that was popular at the end of the 20th century.

 

 

I didn't know how engines work at all. That is, I had no idea at all. Step by step, I realized that I needed a function such and such, then another. Then I realized that I needed a global cycle. Etc. As a result, I began to understand what some CSS properties are for, which I never even used. And I realized what properties the modern browser lacks. That is, it is rather interesting.

How do you like it? What does it look like? What do you think?

 

 

If you're interested, here are a couple of links to the video:

• Level example
• A * algorithm
• Light and shadows

 

I used all the images and materials in the engine only for testing technologies and for entertainment. Not for commercial gain.

That is awesome! What you have done with web technology is amazing! I say keep it up and keep expanding. A small project can quickly become something big and amazing!
