The point of this library is to create a community based project that allows for the rapid creation of 2d games using HTML5 and javascript technologies. The second point is to consolidate the various 2d gaming solutions I've seen scattered around the internet into a common set of best practice utilities that are free, readily available, and improve over time.

These tools are for handling the boiler plate code in developing 2d games like scrollers, single screen action arcade, 3rd Person RPGs, etc., type games.

AI logic,
Sprite support (poly points, images, and image strips),
Self driving game loop,
ScreenManager for canvas and double-buffering,
InputManager,
Map rendering and configuration,
Stock monster and gaming templates,
Sound,
Animations,
Resource loading/mgmt.,
Connector for server-side data via Ajax and JSON
Ease of deployment
