The excited point of HTML5 and JavaScript is it is a game platform which is full of potency. Indeed, today we can take use of canvas element to create excellent 2D games and create 3D games with gorgeous visual effect based on WebGL. Then today I am going to talk about some wonderful and interesting HTML games in recent years. Here we will take several games for example. Then let’s get start with Angry Birds. It is a game which is based on the physical mechanism. The concept of the game is to make effort to destroy the construction in order to kill the hated pigs. The game was launched on IOS initially, but in order to promote technique of Chrome Web Store and WebGL, angry-birds game was moved to HTML5 platform. And the game was used WebGl to accelerate 2D graphics.

Then the second wonderful game is Sumon. The most fascinating point of this game is it uses CocoonJs frame can move the original HTML5 and JavaScript games into Android and IOS applications. Anyway, it is a good thing. For example, you can remove the game which is developed with C++ into JavaScript platform. Anyway, this game also uses HTML5 canvas to create graphics. However, angry birds and Sumon are really help us spend much spare time and entertain us.

 

Here I would like to introduce another application which is also taken good use of HTML5 technology. That is 3D Page Flip Standard. On one hand, it is also a outstanding flip book maker to convert PDF file to page flipping book; on the other hand, the flash book can be added more multimedia functions on flash page such as templates, scenes, feature settings, publish online or offline and shared on the social media sites. What’s the most important point is it supports HTML5 and can be viewed on portable devices with ease. All in all, that is a awesome page flip software to read PDF file in a comfortable and fresh way.

Generally speaking, Adobe Edge just provides a tool for web designer to make network animation on the devices (such as Apple IOS Devices) without supporting Flash.

Next is Adobe Dreamweaver. It is much common use in our daily development. As web design software, Adobe Dreamweaver provides the visual editing interface of HTML website and mobile application. The Fluid Grid layout systems integration and CSS functions supply adaptive layout and across-plates compatibility. In a word, Adobe Dreamweaver not only can preview on Live View window but also support multi screen preview function. Then Live View support HTML5 through Webkit engine.
