Show HN: Homegames. An open-source game platform I've been making for 8 years
I'm making a platform for simple open source games you can play anywhere. Games are all just JavaScript classes and you can read the source of every game on the platform. I started working on initial "games" (mostly rendering tests) in 2018 and eventually built all of the platform stuff around it to make it easy to share games. There's also an in-browser editor available for you to make and publish games all from the browser. Would love some feedback on the games and studio features as well as the platform overall. All of the code is available at https://github.com/homegamesio Comments URL: ht
This is a 'Show HN' post, which represents a typical community showcase of a personal project after a long development period.
This item is not particularly important for a strategic reader as it details a niche open-source gaming platform with limited broader impact.
Nothing significant changes due to this specific development; it's a small contribution to the open-source gaming ecosystem.
- · Open-source game developers
- · Casual JavaScript programmers
A new platform for simple open-source JavaScript games becomes available.
It might foster a small community of developers creating games within its ecosystem.
Potentially, it could inspire similar lightweight, browser-based game development platforms.
