This is a game I created with 2 other students for Mozilla's Game On competition. It works best in Chrome or Safari, but is generally playable in Firefox 4. If you sign up for an account, you can make your own levels and share your levels page with anyone!

I really like the look and feel of the game, kudos! I am, however, struggling to manage two players at once. Is it meant to be played by two people on a single keyboard? Are any of the levels single-player?

  Yeah, it's meant to be a two-player game. It's really tough to play alone! We're looking into networked play, though we can't modify the live site while the Game On judging is in progress.

    That explains why I thought the game was so hard :) I feel that the experience of controlling both robots was very interesting though. The split-screen behavior worked very nicely for that.

This is amazing, that you're able to maintain 60 fps for all the madness that is going on. Good luck!!

  The performance is quite good. Is the source (the unminified version) available anywhere?
  - Justin_Time 16y ago
    Yes, it's open source on Github: https://github.com/evanw/rapt https://github.com/evanw/rapt

This project is far and away the best thing to ever come out of CS32 at Brown. The HTML5 version is more than enough forgiveness for neglecting to to reply to the e-mail I sent you on May 18, 2010. ;)

  It's pretty great, though if I had a Solaris box handy I might pit it against the networked multiplayer Zelda game a CS32 team wrote in '97. ;-)

    That sounds awesome, and it came way before Four Swords!

  You're right, we never responded, sorry! We appreciated your e-mail, and your wish has (finally) come true: the JS version is open-source.
