BrowserQuest is an open source HTML5 MMO.  The game has an SNES look to it and makes use of a lot of HTML5 APIs such as Canvas and Websockets.

I propose that we set a goal to get this game to run on Pine, because it seems like the type of gameplay and graphical quality that I was envisioning for v1.  This is a somewhat long term goal.  We will need to make a decent amount of changes to BrowserQuest's code for it to work on Pine.

If we can prove that games like BrowserQuest work on Pine, then we have proven that it is a feasible gaming platform.

I agree; it will use a lot of features we plan on implementing and will be a good example of the games that will run well on our platform.

This Pac-Man clone would also be a really good sample to get running on Pine: https://github.com/shaunew/Pac-Man
