2D web game engine (used to create Milpa) released as open source

[brackeen]

I wasn't sure which topic to put this under, but hey, "Shared Code" sounds good.

PulpCore is a "2D rendering and animation framework for the Java plug-in".

There's a couple live examples here: http://www.interactivepulp.com/pulpcore/
The downloads and such are available here: http://code.google.com/p/pulpcore/

It's brand new, so the web page is sparse and I haven't set up a forum yet. And of course, there's lots of API documentation to write.

Try it out if you have the time - I'm definitely looking for feedback from the community to make it better, in terms of feature set and ease of use. It won't be everyone's cup of tea (especially since it's a framework, not a library) but I'm sure some people out there will like it.

Congrats Brackeen,

Nice design and clean code.

PS:
"Drawbacks ... No AWT/Swing." <- Sounds like a strength to me

Thanks for releasing this - automating dirty rectangle painting like that is a great idea.  The particle explosion demo which follows the mouse cursor is really something!
