phaser
Phaser is a fun, free and fast 2D game framework for making HTML5 games for desktop and mobile web browsers, supporting Canvas and WebGL rendering.
Here is what I wanted to find - simple portal where I could play simpler games built with HTML and Javascript and nothing else. Sure, building them with engines like Phaser is one thing, but creating a complete game with Unity and then packing it together to play a game that I can't tinker with is no fun!

Project mention: Show HN: Playful orbit trap fractal explorer (desktop) | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-01-23
Hey HN! I've been working on a new render engine for our company for a while now, and I wanted to see if I can create an easy to use, playful interface for exploring orbit trap fractals.
There are a lot of things happening under the hood: I wrote a runtime type system in TS that generates both shader code and a UI, allowing me to quickly iterate on new features and experiment easily. The renderer is based on regl (https://regl-project.github.io/). I've adapted regl to support WebGL2. I tried to use a functional, declarative approach, where input data is transformed into draw calls. I'm using my own custom cache system that smartly tries to cache assets (like images and geometry data) between draw calls.
I'm curious what you think of it! Let me know in the comments if you have ideas for more features, fractals, etc. I'd also love to know if you encounter any bugs!
Here is a blog post that I made, describing the features and underlaying math in layman terms: https://blog.repper.app/introducing-repper-labs/
Oh, and no vibe coding in this project! All code was artisanally crafted.
