Golden Sun Engine - HTML5

An Golden Sun Engine entirely built in HTML5 with PhaserJS CE 2.19.0.

See the DEMO. Use Chromium-based browsers. Don't use Firefox.

With this project, people should be able to make a GS-like game without any programming skills.
This repository is just the engine. I'm not planning to do many maps, animations, items etc. Content here is just enough to show the functionalities.
This project does not aim to do exactly the same engine as GS, but very similar.

Development environment

GS-HTML5 supports both Javascript (legacy) and Typescript. We use Webpack to build the bundle and serve the development environment.

I strongly recommend using Visual Studio Code to develop.
Install dev dependencies by running npm install --legacy-peer-deps in the root folder.
Use npm start to start the development server.
Check the general guidelines in order to contribute.
