Here’s my engine source that I’m going to be starting from for the competition. It’s a very bare bones HTML5 canvas engine with an image pre-loader, debug output, primitive animation and button support, with hooks for input. It also contains some double buffering experiments, which mostly seem to be dead ends, but we’ll see what happens. It runs under firefox and chrome. Haven’t tested anything else. It represents about 3 days of work, so don’t expect much \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n
