CommandoJS

About

CommandoJS is an HTML5 canvas/audio study built in CoffeeScript using the MelonJS library, recreating the Commodore 64 version of Commando as a nostalgia project. Only a rough implementation of the game's first level exists, and the code is explicitly unoptimized at this stage.

Getting started

The game can be played at commandojs.org, per the readme's contact section.

History

The author cites several earlier fan-made HTML5/Basic remakes as direct inspiration: a Blitz Basic Commando remake, an HTML5 Command & Conquer project, and an HTML5 Infinite Mario Bros. clone.

Known issues & limitations

• feature: Only rough implementation for level 1 of the game.
• quality: Code is not optimized for performance or style.

Additional notes

Testing

The readme notes that unit tests (written with QUnit) are far from complete.
