Experiments in HTML5: digital racing tracks
Innovation labs are filled with stunning
creation and ideas. This is the case for Chrome Experiments, created for
developers to unleash their imagination and present their best experiments for Chrome.
The common denominator is that they all have been developed
using HTML5 , Canvas , SVG ,
and WebGL . There are really
imaginative work, but has drawn our attention especially the so-called " Racer
", an ode to the endearing
Scalextric that lets you play with 5 players together so many mobile
devices ( smartphones, tablets ) on a track that is spreading all screens.
There loops, curves, straight super-fast, etc. But beware, controls the speed
or your car will leave the track.
Do not be fooled, even a game and mobile use,
not an application that you can download from Google Play is a Chrome extension
that is played directly in the browser.
The project is so complete that even the music
played in the game is created on purpose by the artist Giorgio Moroder , who innovate
disco in the 70s and currently works with famous bands such as Daft Punk.
Feel the speed and share a fun game that will
take you back to childhood, but with the technology.
Developers in this video we show how they have
managed to realize this project.
Have fun, and experiment on!
