Overview¶

Spider is a creation engine, dedicated to the making and publishing of video games.

It’s based on an open source WebGL / Typescript run-time, and a content creation platform at spiderengine.io.

Browser Support¶

The run-time and editor run in any web-browser.

However, we are focusing our testing efforts on Chrome chrome so we recommend it for best experience.

Technology¶

Spider is based on modern web technologies:

Written in Typescript
Uses WebGL for graphics rendering
Uses Cannon.js for simulating physics
Game logic can be entirely developed in Javascript

Target Platforms¶

Web is and will always be the primarily supported platform by the Spider Engine.

It also runs on PC.

Support for MacOS, Linux, iOS, and Android is coming soon.

Open Source Run-time¶

This will be our first open source project. If you have experience in the open source scene, we are definitly interested in hearing from you! Contact Us
