a java-script game

Games are there to entertain.  I personally always enjoyed writing the code more than playing the game.  Its a puzzle, I like puzzles.  A game I really liked was the Gravity Force 2 game on the Amiga.

I decided to rewrite it in java-script.  Mainly to brush up my own java-script development skills, and to see how java-script / HTML 5 performs on modern computers.

The other advantage of java-script and HTML 5 is that they are the current language of the Internet so to speak.  They also provide a rich cross platform for other devices.  Sure, they are still immature in that respect, but I have hope that they will evolve and that somehow naively everything falls into place.

So in this blog - I will write this game, step by step.

  1. Check out this site to see how the C64 classic Survivor was remade for in Javascript/HTML5 - very interesting.
