  • Love the music, love the graphics,

    And I have no clue what the heck is going on :D

    Would love to know if you used some sort of Sin/Cos to create the explosion pattern or if it is an animation

  • Did you use the Canvas plugin to draw instead of keep creating new objects?

    TL;DR sorry :3

  • Quick Update.

    NEVER! Use every tick on an event like socket.io!

    I was anxious this might happen but figured that 60 updates per second would be fast enough, WRONG! I blocked server messages by running the previous stated Every Tick Loop

  • The server is down because I am rewriting it :-/

    But the server does connect, its the client that does not move, but I think the Everytick update fixed it for some reason

  • After some hours, I was unable to connect properly to my Game server.. It froze up <img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" align="middle">

    I was still able to see output from the server whenever the player requested to move, but on the screen, nothing moved...

    My current Idea for a fix would be to put the entire "Is data Available" loop inside an Every Tick Event.   But since JavaScript is event based, that should not be needed?

  • Does data Split only work with "," ?

  • Ashley

    Yeah I did see it, its awesome.

    I definitely agree that JavaScript has a long way to go, but that is exiting!

    To each his own I guess, but JavaScript is just so simple and yet versatile !

  • So I know this article is a bit old by now, but it still made me smile because it looked so fanboyish..

    http://blogs.adobe.com/avikchaudhuri/2012/01/17/the-v8-myth-why-javascript-is-not-a-worthy-competitor/

    So one of the things he said was that Actionscript beats the V8 by around 3x speed and that JavaScript cant handle much because it has to be compiled at runtime.

    The article did rustle my jimmies a little though.. Personally I love the web, no plugins and access from as many platforms as possible, which is why I think JavaScript is great.

    But I wont disagree that as a scripting language it is slower, hopefully the it will get updated and Hardware will keep getting more powerful!

    He finishes with:

    So, let us stop worrying about JavaScript, and aim higher. As we focus on gaming, ActionScript programs will require significantly better optimizations for performance. ActionScript has just the right DNA mix for success, and it will become the 21st century language it could always be.

    But anyways, lets beat this Horse! I think I saw it twitching.

    I want to hear your opinions on his article and -if there are any- examples of Good looking 3D flash?

  • Oh, you're right !

  • So I am looking at the Browser Quest repository, and first thing I notice is that the images are saved in JSON format.

    Shouldn't we have that option? Or does that clash with Sprite-sheets?

  • Huh.. 2 seconds
