All Important Interface
Although animash is first and foremost browser-based we want to create an experience that feels like a real game and not the usual embedded flash surrounded by flashing adverts that has become so synonymous with casual online games.
The game adjusts to take up the entire browser window - menus and other interface elements will be navigable with both the keyboard and mouse.
As part of the interface development I have created a jQuery plugin to enable keyboard navigation on any number of dom elements, check out the documentation and sourcecode over at github. It will be improved during the course of the games development - let us know if you find it useful!
