Javascript Gauntlet

An HTML5 Gauntlet-style Game

NOTE: single player only at this time, multiplayer coming later

SUPPORTED BROWSERS

  • Chrome 24+
  • Firefox 18+
  • IE 9+

KNOWN ISSUES

  • No support for touch/mobile devices
  • Startup (and level transition) can be slow over a slow network connection (duh)

TODO

  • POLISH - better scoreboard fonts
  • POLISH - let doors have corners (and choose more wisely between horz/vert when up against odd walls)
  • POLISH - render monsters top down with slight overlap for pseudo-3d

DEVELOPMENT

The game is 100% client side javascript and css. It should run when served up by any web server.

Any changes to the following files will be reflected immediately on refresh of the browser

  • js/gauntlet.js
  • css/gauntlet.css
  • images/
  • sounds/
  • levels/

However, if you modify the js/game/ or js/vendor/ javascript files, the unified versions need to be regenerated:

js/vendor.js        # the unified 3rd party vendor scripts (sizzle, animator, audio-fx, stats, state-machine)
js/game.js          # the unified general purpose game engine

If you have the Ruby language available, Rake tasks can be used to auto generate these unified files:

rake assets:create   # re-create unified javascript/css asset files on demand
rake assets:server   # run a simple rack server that automatically regenerates the unified files when the underlying source is modified
