Crazy idea: Sunvox HTML5 port ?

Post by dubalistic »

Hi Nightradio,

A crazy idea, since Sunvox is so multiplatform, why don't you try to build it with Emscripten/LLVM and compile it to JavaScript/HTML5 just for the experiment ?. Since it is SDL based, I think it could be possible.
There is already a Dune 2 port in HTML5, you can have a look at some examples here:

Supporting a modern browser as a first tier platform can give rise to some very interesting possibilities.
Imagine collaborative edition of Sunvox, where people can collaborate and make songs real time in the browser.

Many regards !
