- Example game (Safari)
point-and-click is a personal project to make and to play Point and click (or Graphical Adventure or Room Escape) games without programming them. It contains a game editor and an engine for web browsers. It is make with jQuery and plain Javascript and CSS (also express is used to make it runnable from a server).
It contains an example game (Safari) made for fun and to show the potential of the engine.
I only tested it with Chrome but it is highly probably that also works with other browsers.
I made this project a long time ago (back in 2015) for having fun and to gift friends/family with point and click games. The tecnologies used back the where jQuery for the frontend and GAE (Google App Engine) for the backend. I changed GAE for expressJS and removed all the "personal" stuff and decided to make it public to github for the community.
I don't have plans to mantain the project but maybe if I find some bug (or some bug is reported), I can try to fix it. Also if someone send me via PR a stage (game) I can consider it to add it to the project.
You can see a live example at this Live Server. You can tinker with the editor and with the example game, the only limitation is that doing through a Live Server you can not point to images in your computer due to security reasons. But you can use Internet images or even insert the images with a base64 string (not recommended). If you want to invest some time creating a game my recommendation is that you install the engine in your computer.
Visit the manual if you want more information on how to create your own game.
In the Live Server you can play and edit a personal game (Safari) adapted for being and example of the potential of the engine and the editor. It's rated for adult audiences due to drugs use and its obscene and violent language 😉. It was developed with my native language (Catalan) and then translated with Google Translate and reviewed it a little. Expect lots of errors in the translations! (Any corrections are welcome)
