Moonshades an old school dungeon crawler in WebGL
Hi! I would like to ask you for your honest opinions about a self developed game. Ony two guys are working on it, so don't expect stunning graphics:). This is an old-school game, taking most of it's core elements from old classics like Eye of the beholder, Lands of Lore, and Ultima.
The things you should know: the game runs in a browser, so you don't need to download it or anything. Using a fairly new browser technology, it doesn't require any additional plugins, only a browser that can handle a WebGL.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebGL)
You should use the latest version of Google Chrome, other browsers aren't so reliable if you want to try it. This is a Pre-Alpha build a lot of things are missing and bugs can still happen, but I think you can get an idea of what we are aiming for in the full version:). If you have any constructive criticism then don't hesitate, we would be thankful if you could help us out, even with your own ideas of what we are missing from the game, or what we should add to it or with a like at Facebook :)

Hey folks. Giving you a heads up of some of the improvements and changes in the game:
- a whole new atmosphere, thanks to the new textures and lighting effects.
- a full set of skill animations and sound effects.
- several improvements in the user interface.
- a load of new items
For all the dungeon crawler enthusiasts, there is a map editor in progress. It will give you access
to a lot of neat features, so you can create your own deadly dungeon and share it with your
friends.
And remember, we will gladly take any tips or constructive criticism in consideration, so feel free
to tell them.
Lastly, we are feeling really good about the progress, that has been made today, especially because
we were accepted to Chrome Experiments.

Hey, I've just started a non-registered game on Firefox. Works great so far, but moving is a bit annoying because I have Azerty. Can't you auto-detect that or something? :)
Nice work, good graphics and gorgeous GUI! Seems there is already quite a bit of gameplay in there, so it's not merely a tech demo, which is great. Also nice to see a game made with three.js, which is my weapon of choice too.
The game reminds me of Legend of Grimrock - both have grid movement, but modern graphics. Actually it looks quite a bit like one of my own game projects, due to using the same awesome textures in many places :P
