Review on Egret Engine by Trey Ali

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A wonderful HTML5 canvas library/engine

I really like how easy it was to set up my first game, even though I'm not very experienced with game programming in general. Also, the documentation for the engine itself has been great! There's nothing that I dislike about this product. It does everything as advertised, and if there were any problems encountered along the way, they've been addressed immediately. If you're looking for an easy-to-use tool that will give you all of the tools necessary to make your own games, Egret Engine is definitely worth it. The ability to create video games using JavaScript, which can be run on the Web or by mobile devices. We use Egret Engine to develop two different games. One of them is a card game, while the other one is a platformer game (think Super Mario). It's very easy to use for beginners, it has a lot of tutorials that can help you get started with your project. I would say that there are some features that need more work, but overall it's a great engine. The only problem I have with it is that sometimes when I save my project and then try to run it again, it doesn't always work. Sometimes it works fine, other times it won't even start up. But if you're looking for an easy to use engine, this is it! I'm using it to make games for Android and iOS.
