Creating rooms in Javascript

[Ddos Attack]

Hey RZ
Haven't been here for a while

I'm looking at creating a Habbo-like client built with HTML, CSS, JS and Java. I've got ideas with the server-side already, however I was a bit confused about creating the actual rooms (and room layouts) using Javascript (and I assume Canvas?).

I'm really just looking for a bit of guidance of any frameworks that may accommodate this functionality. I've tried looking at previous developments but couldn't find any.

Cheers.

Maybe Processing.js could be up your alley, as for room generation, look up Isometric game examples in JavaScript. Processing.js is built / inspired by Processing for the JVM which is a neat little language, I was working on my own game client for a top down 2D pixel RPG, it is fairly capable out of the box to do plenty. Not sure how Processing.js is up to par in comparison though.

Cheers! I'll take a look at it

I suggest

You must be registered to see links

for the job.

It's fast, like really fast!
WebGL with normal canvas fallback.
Interactive (even touch interactions)
Build in spritesheet system (you will notice it how handy that is when you start working on it )

And overal, it's easy!

Ofcourse there are many other parts to think of then just using a library

I would go with what Joopie recommends, he knows a bit more in this area than me. He did a similar project to what you're doing but in 3D instead.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I'll be sure to take a look.
