Just because this blog is supposed to log our development efforts doesn’t mean that I cannot post entertaining items I come across in my day. Today I found a very awesome video on Youtube that was made by a SEO guy.
The author has decided that his techniques are worth rapping about. He doesn’t give away too many trade secrets, but it was very entertaining.
A developer by the name of “CupBoy” has created possibly one of the most impressive Javascript demos so far this year. He created a clone of Super Mario in 14 KB of Javascript code. The demo is available here.
I love it. I have been putting off creating a game myself, which I originally planned to write with a mix of Javascript and Actionscript 3, but this makes me want to drop Actionscript for some elements. Javascript is not always the best solution for every application. But there is a certain wow factor and bragging rights to creating something like this.
Very cool if you ask me.
