Ok so first, I'll just say, this is cool. I'm pretty excited about asm.js in general.
I'm sort of skeptical when they say they ported "Unreal" though. What I see there is an Unreal map viewer. I don't see any physics or AI or sound going on. The thing is about doing a map viewer, pretty much all the work is going to the graphics card, so it really doesn't matter what language you use. I think I'll be more excited when I see a demo that actually plays like a full game.
- vrodic 14y agoIf you look at the video you'll see they have full gameplay with bots. Presumably they still have some bugs to iron out or are working on how to present the whole thing to users as a playable game on the web.
- azakai 14y agoI don't think there are any bugs, we showed that map with bots in a booth at GDC 2013 where people could play it. Worked fine.
- masklinn 14y agoThey note they ported Epic Citadel, it's a tech demo which uses most of the Unreal engine directly, Epic Citadel was originally developed for iOS to demonstrate UE3 ran on/for the platform (before they wrote Infinity Blade) it's not a "map viewer": http://kotaku.com/5627701/play-with-the-unreal-engine-on-your-iphone-with-epic-citadel http://kotaku.com/5627701/play-with-the-unreal-engine-on-you...
- vrodic 14y agoAs for the physics, you can clearly see flags waving and trees moving, as well as birds flying and water running.
- kayoone 14y agojust watch the video to the end, they have some full blown UT3 gameplay vs alot bots in there!
- treeform 14y agoI have played the real Unreal 3 level (the one that ships with UDK) in the browser with bots and physics at one of the webGL meetups. It was awesome. I think the game demo is coming soon.
