regl VS Phaser

Author of Threlte here 👋 with two cents about Three.js: It's exceptionally well written in terms of rigid and consistent interfaces that allow frameworks such as Threlte to exist to make wrappers/renderers that are as slim as possible. This is due to it being strictly OO but definitely something i would make top priority when creating a new 3D library. Personally I find regl also very interesting with a completely different approach than Babylon or Three.js.

If you go to https://github.com/regl-project/regl , you'll see the last commit was made literally yesterday.

You can create a HTML Canvas with a WebGL context (I suggest using a library like Ogl or Regl )and run the functions exported by this library in a fragment shader, then save the current frame by a method like this or any other.

The author, Mikola Lysenko, is a remarkable engineer. He's wildly prolific, but I my favorite project of his is regl[1], which is an unparalleled WebGL library. I think it might be the best-in-class example of all OpenGL libraries, though I have admittedly fallen behind on the state-of-the-art of desktop OpenGL.

bit like regl?

Thanks! I made it with regl: https://github.com/regl-project/regl

Just use an actual game framework https://phaser.io/

Phaser (MIT/JS) https://github.com/photonstorm/phaser

I used the Phaser framework to build the game! I didn't pick it for any particular reason, I just saw that they were offering prizes at the end of the game jam so I thought it'd be a good choice. In hindsight, once again, I should have read the fine print and realized that Phaser is very large for this kind of game jam, but MOVING ON.

Phaser: I've actually used this engine before! It's pretty decent if you're just making small browser games and really easy to use. I taught a programming class to kids aged 10-15 and we used this for a couple of projects. They had no problem making some decent games with it. MIT Licensed and would definitely recommend giving it a go if you want to make something that has the same sort of style as older browser flash games we all used to play on Miniclip and other similar sites.

https://phaser.io/ is a great framework to get started with

I love playing video games, especially console and mobile games. I learned about Phaser (an open source framework for building games with JavaScript) last year and have wanted to try out game development using the skills I already have as a web developer.
