An Explosion in JavaScript

By Robert | May 19, 2007

At my new job, I had the pleasure of writing my first two games. What made this especially fun is that they are games written in JavaScript.

Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to write a videogame. Sure, I wrote one in BASIC (didn’t we all?), and a few lame attempts in C written while in school on a Mac (to the youngins: this was the pre-OSX days). We’re now testing the games in limited production release, and so far the feedback has been pretty good.

Web browser technology has made things soooo easy that I can now quickly throw together a demo of one of the features of the games without looking too much like an idiot.

The demo is here: JavaScript PNG Sprite Animations.

    Hee! I don’t mind be on “the cruise ship for nerds.” I’ve got the honeymoon suite on the Lido Deck — it’s all good!

    Are you going to add any more “Stupid Web Tricks”? The ones you had posted were interesting and fun. Keep up the good work and as a fellow Otani, keep us proud! Take care you two!
