I have been thinking of making this LD game in C++ and SFML, instead of on Phaser.<\/p>\n

The only problem is that SFML cannot be deployed into the web (I believe SDL can, but i prefer SFML), also, compiling to other platforms can be hard (I have a Linux machine, but it takes some time to set up the compiler, etc…), so what do you think?<\/p>\n

Do you recommend making the game “offline” only?<\/p>\n

Cheers!<\/p>\n
