Maze game for desktop browsers.

Mazing

The purpose of this project was to reinterpret a retro game, and to learn several tools:

• ES6 a.k.a. ES2015 via Babel
• Pixi.js for WebGL rendering
• howler.js to interface with the Web Audio API
• Grunt to organize JavaScript tasks
• Bower to organize front-end dependencies
• Aseprite for pixel art and animation
• TexturePacker for sprite management
• WebStorm as a JavaScript IDE

Building

Install Bower and Grunt if not already installed.

npm install -g grunt-cli
npm install -g bower

mazing's Issues

Limit render fps to game logic fps

There is no need to render more often than the game fps runs. setAnimationFrame() could be called from the end of the game loop instead.

Input 'handling' not set

See input.js where 'down' or 'up' is set for each key state. 'handling' is not checked for and not set.
