Everyone loves games, but in addition games are a big statement for, and testimony to, the scope and power of open web standards. A constant criticism leveled at the open web is that it doesn't have the performance available to support complex applications such as 3D immersive games, as compared to native platforms. However, Mozilla's work on technologies such as ASM.js, Emscripten and WebGL has shown that open standards have got what it takes, and playing such games in a web browser is perfectly possible.

At the moment, MDN has a few bits of games development documentation, but nothing comprehensive or complete. This project is aimed at creating a kick ass games documentation center, which will serve the needs of both experienced game developers who want to create for the open web, and experienced web programmers who want to know what their platform is capable of.
