  • Well, to be honest, I also feel it goes that way:

    "Javascript was not designed to do X"

    "Do X with it"

    Which is not that bad considering the benefit of bekng inside the webbrowser, but when we go around with:

    "We want to do a game executable for one specific platform"

    "Javascript is not specific to a platform, browsers are translating it in the end to the platform"

    "I know! Let's get a browser, hide it from people, and use it to interpret the javascript we have done so it looks like an exe!"

    "...what the point already?"

    "It is cooler that way, and we can export to multiple platforms!"

    "...you could either just stay with a webgame which will keep the benefits, or simply use a technology that is low level enough while being crossplatform which won't have problems"

    "Nah, I prefer misusing mah toolz"

    I just cannot say it is a good thing, we are using a webtech, trying to make it as polish as native, then making it look like native while losing the web benefits, dafudge.

  • So the hierarchy is: blame the software, the compiler, then the language, and failing that blame the hardware.

    Wont be long till we blame Moore for not getting anything done.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • In most cases C2 is sufficient. But it is not magic, you still need to think algorithms and resources.

  • It all started like this.

    01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111 00100000 01010111 01101111 01110010 01101100 01100100 00100001 00100000

    Apparently "hello world"

  • haha... the one about protoType being "pants on head stupid" was priceless... I cringe every time I have to work on someone else's code that uses it.

  • sizcoz It all started like this.

    01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111 00100000 01010111 01101111 01110010 01101100 01100100 00100001 00100000

    and it will end like that too
