Hi guys, I've participated last weekend to Ludum Dare 29 and made a ant simulation game using Phaser. The game I have written a postmortem on http://greweb.me/2014/05/ld29/The game entry is available here: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-29/?action=preview&uid=18803 Feedback on Phaser This was the first time for me to use Phaser, and this was quite an awesome choice. The learning curve was quite smooth, the concept are clean and simple. I mainly use the Phaser API documentation, however by doing so I missed some guidelines on what to do, what to not do. But I had 48 hours to make my game, so not so much time to read tutorials. I've recently browsed the library source code and it is quite a good thing to do if anyone wants to use Phaser (that was great to see how the framework works and all the optimisation tricks) During my development there was one thing weird about performances: So my game is a big map of dirt tiles, and I first wanted to use a set of ~ 10 Phaser.BitmapData so I can have different gradient of dirt, and for each tile I would use one of this bitmap data randomly. However, even if a BitmapData is (I think?) suppose to be cached, my performance was awful comparing to just using Image Sprite. Any idea about this performance issues? Thanks, @greweb
