Html5 Canvas + Javascript Game Creators

[TomCol 2]

As HTML5 supports a drawing canvas, it's become easier to make Flash like games without using a plugin. I havn't explored much about using the <canvas> tag, but from what I gather, it's an easy way of drawing straight into the browser. This means that images, lines and colours can be put straight into the screen with very little effort. Javascript is used to manipulate this, so it's simple to produce a graphical output in your webpage.If you've used the canvas to make games, please post here.

Yet to try this but i heard about canvas few months before. I wonder what adobe is planning with flash or this canvas. May be they'll dump the plugin or enhance this canvas with their flash technology. This could minimize the plugin load and will speed up plugin and content development. But it's good that W3C people are forcing the world to make use of SVG more. Earlier many platforms ignored SVG but now from HTML5 i'm sure SVG wil rise again.
