![]() It's a fully HTML5 + Javascript game, no canvas or webgl was used. With this in mind I created Tappy Colors. But if you're aiming to rich eye candy games, unfortunately is a big no go. Nevertheless I gave it a try, and by building simple and not heavy animated games, the platform can do the job. Windows Phone 7 also seemed to take a performance hit from using PhoneGap, so perhaps there are difficult technical issues around putting a browser in a native app." So the only utility for PhoneGap appears to be for targeting the iPhone. ![]() On iOS the system browser is Safari which actually performs very well, but when you wrap it up in PhoneGap it drops three times slower on iPad 2, ten times slower (!!) on iPad 3 (using the retina display), and bizarrely for reasons I really struggle to comprehend, is only marginally slower on the iPhone 4S. This is mainly because it is stuck with the system default browser which is usually too slow. "PhoneGap unfortunately appears on the whole to be unsuitable for publishing HTML5 games. Let's breakdown some of the limitations that I've identified and that I would love to see them tackled down in future releases of the platform.Īs we all might know, P10 uses Cordova (previously known as PhoneGap), and by looking to a Scirra benchmark we will know that: So why not benefit from that and enter the hype of minimal, simplistic yet funny HTML5 games, that once build can be deployed across different platforms without so much effort? ![]() Since P10 we can build heavily based JavaScript applications with the ease that we're used to do it in the past. ![]() Some of them I've already shared with the team, but we need to know that I'm reporting stuff that's not directly related with Enterprise Applications, and I know before hand that they might not get implemented, but it's worth the sharing. While trying to build games using P10, I came across some limitations, or we can call them as not yet optimized features! But we need to take into consideration that P10 was released not so long ago. ( at least in my opinion ).Ĭurrently I've around 10 ongoing projects (some already in Production) in my Personal Environment and 4 of them are games. I've been in my spare time, building some simple, yet funny games. ![]()
