Cross Compiling your ActionScript Starling Games to WebGL and JavaScript

[renaun]

For those times you have existing ActionScript code and want to try it on WebGL. Currently works best with Starling based games. Here is a demo:

Summary is using Randori Compiler, KontikiJS, and Starling you can take your games to WebGL / HTML5. Its basically like a TypeScript type workflow but in ActionScript.

 

KontikiJS – https://github.com/renaun/KontikiJS
Randori Compiler (my fork) – https://github.com/renaun/randori-compiler
Randori SDK – https://github.com/RandoriAS/randori-sdk
Starling-Framework (my fork with minor changes) – https://github.com/renaun/Starling-Framework
HungryHero AS3 Sample Code – https://github.com/renaun/RandoriExamples/tree/master/HungryHeroJS

In theory if you have AS3 game frameworks you could conceivably create JavaScript versions with this process. All outputted code is very readable and easy to edit. Since its compiled if you have all source it will only compile what you need, then with closure and min you get a pretty compact JS version of your game and framework code.
