Comment on 24a2: An ultra-minimalist game engine

Comments

Is importing P5 a requirement for this engine to work? I know “minimal” can mean a lot of things to different people, but I don’t think it P5 adds much that you couldn’t trivially do without it in this case, and by stripping that dependency away you’d be able to make a very strong case for this being an ultra minimal engine.

I'm sure it's easy to render a 24x24 grid of colored dots using JS without any kind of graphics engine. But I guess it's a stylistic choice - abstract out the rendering code so that it's just an engine.
