OcramTower

Web based game meant to be a spiritual successor to SimTower and Yoot Tower

This game currently has no gameplay or functionality besides displaying a tower that has already been made. Future revisions will allow the player to build a tower from the ground up and use the top canvas to see a smaller, more manageable viewing field.

The main page is OcramTower-prealpha1.html and it might take a while to load. I recommend you open it in a private tab or in Internet Explorer 10+.

ocramtower's Issues

Hiatus?

Out of curiosity, is this project on hiatus?

Demo not working in Firefox

The demo doesn't work for me in Firefox 30.0 - in Google chrome, everything is nice and smooth. Interestlng enough, Firefox's firebug shows permanently refreshing drawing status in console, so there seems to be some activity at least.

The graphics are drawn normally, but the image is not movable. Maybe this is about events? As soon as I've got some time I'll try to investigate here - or whoever wants to take over.

License

Under what license is this developed as? I am interested in developing this concept further, but would like to know how it is licensed.

Demo not working on older Firefox (FF 15 / Linux)

I had a report coming in from my work colleague Lars that he wasn't able to start the demo on FF 15 (Linux). I don't know how far backwards you guys want to go, if you want to support only actual browsers or maybe even later browsers.

He writes that a fix for him was the following code:

var requestAnimationFrame = window.requestAnimationFrame || window.mozRequestAnimationFrame || window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame || window.msRequestAnimationFrame;

in main.js

If you like, I could implement and fix the test. If you decide to support only latest browsers, please draw a line from where to where and which browsers.
