The Open Web LS16 is a fantasy console framework designed to let you easily make retro games. The language is JavaScript, with an API that closely matches the popular Pico-8.

You can download the files either here or from GitHub, and then make your own `.js` cartridge file.

For more information, see the documentation in the README: https://github.com/morph-games/owls16/blob/main/README.md

Nice project, dude! I took a look at the source code. If you want to have more control over the graphics, I don’t recommend using the 2d canvas methods directly, but rather creating a Buffer (array) and rendering each pixel. This makes it very easy to create more pixelated graphics (circles, for example). See that engine example https://github.com/Rybar/js13k2017/blob/master/src/js/lib/Engine.js
