ControllerPad Class handling keyboard, touch and gamepad input
The ControllerPad Class is setup to capture keyboard touch and usb gamepad inputs
GameSkeleton framework Class taking care of many common redundencies
The GameSkeleton Class utilizes the ControllerPad and other Classes of the library for you to establish the basic setup for any game, including title screen, game over screen, a hud, a sound system, lighting and pixel font typing. By extending the GameSkeleton class you can get straight to the heart of your games code without having to setup those basic things.
Alternatively you can create your own systems using the individual Classes of the library.
Easy pixel typing
Via the GameSkeleton Class the pixelType and animatePixelType and related methods are available. There are eight built in pixel fonts ready to be used, and you can also include your own custom pixel font. By extending the GameSkeleton Class you can then call pixelType during the game loop to type pixel text to the screen, there is also pixelDialogBox.
Sprite sheet security
Using the tabageos.loadSpriteSheetAndStart method you can streamline the loading of your sprite sheet for added security. Streamlined sprite sheets do not show up in a browsers developer tools.
No Webgl:
Tad's Basic Game Objects does not use webgl, instead in GameSkeleton an optional WebWorker keeping the main loop running is used to increase performance. As such games work on many various devices and run fast. Because the library is genearlly a collection of individual classes you can create your own main loop system and still utilize the classes.
Extensive example library
Includes various examples from each Class, mini games and complete games.
