guys! I`m collecting info about writting a game for web using Rails back-end.
Are there any gems or something for game development with HTML5 and Javascript?
Unfortunatelly I’ve found very few info on it. Once I’ve used an gmaps-4-rails gem that helped me very much… not bothering with JS is great, so now i`m looking for a gem making use of some js-game-frameworks.
In most cases you’ll use rails backend only for fetching and saving some data (user saves for example). So, you can use all possibilities that REST gives to you.
But…it seems that you don’t really need anything special gems for this purposes (activerecord and routing already bundled with rails ㋛).
Also for developing html5 game you can use one of the box2d ports to javascript (or write your own game framework using only canvas’s methods).
