Prototype recommendation

November 30, 2007 at 21:02

As usual, it has been a last time since my last blog entry. This time I have been busy programming the game which is to be part of my thesis. So far the progress is satisfying. The game has two big parts, and one of them is nearly fully implemented in terms of code. One of the nicest things about it, is actually the level editor I created for it using Javascript/AJAX, the canvas tag and the Prototype framework. This approach made it quick to develop, and has the added benefit that it runs in a browser and hence is platform independent. Javascript is not exactly the nicest OO language around, but using the Prototype framework makes it much easier to structure the code. I can recommend it to anyone wanting to do a 2D level editor.

Now comes Christmas. Need to deliver a project report, keep working on the game and maybe find some time to relax a bit.
