Hi guys, check out this HTML5 Space Shooter a couple of guys at school and I have worked on together over the past few months, it uses plenty of art from OpenGameArt!
It currently has 2 bosses 3 levels. You can use the keyboard, mouse, or touch.
Your comments, feedback, suggestions, bug reports would be very much appreciated. Also looking for art contributions. :)
Very nice work. HTML5 rules. :)

Hi BlackScorp,
Very nice effect the way you make the entire game jump up and down when you get hit.

Hey BlackScorp,
Oh wow you tried to do this in 12 hours? I had help, and spent months. (Of course I was going to school...)
In that case I'm really impressed.

no , actually iam at 6 hours including editing sprites. but you know, it took me 7 years of learning informatics and computer science :P + i used a framework while you not, and this is really crazy tbh :P i would be never be able to make such game from the scratch without a framework, i would use atleast jquery :D
I don't know anything about Crafty, but JQuery is mostly useless. I wasn't using AJAX and the rest of JQuery just papers over differences between IE<9 and modern browsers. I just simply ignored IE<9. You can see I handle things like custom events without JQuery just fine by doing it the standard compliant way.
Was Crafty really helpful? I wonder if it would have been worth the time to go learn it.

with crafty you make with one code Canvas or DOM games. the code of my game, you just have to replace one string and the whole game will work as dom elements with animated divs without canvas.just try out https://github.com/BlackScorp/desert_rescue/blob/gh-pages/assets/js/game.js in this file use Search & Replace function of your IDE and replace Canvas to DOM
Crafty works also for IE 6,7,8 (but not canvas, IE cannot canvas:D) . Crafty is a Framework with some included functions , like Gravity, Collision detection, Spire animations,Box2D and more. Actually is planing to make Touch events for mobile devices and add 3D WebGL rendering(but no one actually knows when it will release:D in you can bind on your objects any events and trigger then when ever you like.
also there are some isometric/hexagonal functions like placing tiles and object in a grid, so you dont have to care about maths, just using the functions.
it worth to take a look at it.
