Next-Generation HTML5 Game Polycraft Now Live
- sidcool 13y agoHTML 5 game it is. It asks to download and install some exe on my machine, though.
- benvio 13y agoYour browser probably doesn't support WebGL, so we have a fall-back plugin for that case. Try it in the latest Chrome or Firefox and you shouldn't have a problem :)
- ganarajpr 13y agoSorry.. Dint get why its called "Next-Generation" ?
- exodust 13y agoCool, but doesn't work on Firefox 14 which is roughly a year old. Fair enough, you've stated "next generation". So I updated to version 21 and it worked. The thing is, it was broken in Firefox 14, no error message or browser detection or feature detection, just a broken game. It's still a rough experience these HTML games compatibility-wise. I remember detecting older versions of Flash 10 years ago for games I was making then, and warning users they needed to upgrade. I wouldn't have been allowed to deliver a Flash movie that broke on earlier versions. Needing to create an account to save progress shouldn't be needed what with offline storage, or even just a cookie to save where I'm up to. The social media vibe is slightly overdone, I didn't expect persuasive sign-up prompting just to play. But there it is. 7 / 10
- benvio 13y agoGreat feedback, @exodust. Good point about the versioning — we could do that better. Thanks for checking it out :)
