Architecture:

• The engine is based on two concepts. Jasper 2D, an object-behavior based game engine that allows game devs to share their custom defined behaviors among other game developers to provide a new social aspect towards gaem development.

How it works

• Jasper 2D consists of two main components:

Objects

• Objects in Jasper have a logical existence.
• They do not have any behavior associated with them initially.
• They can be tagged with a name for reference.
• In short,
  • An Object is a logical entity and can be composed of any number of Behaviors

Behaviors

• Behaviors give character to an object.
• They define an object, how it looks, what it does, how it does it, how it handles events, etc.
• In short,
  • A Mix of Behaviors Define an Object in the game.

Example

var hero = new Jasper.Object("hero");   
hero.addBehavior("moveAround");
