Cool, but doesn&#x27;t work on Firefox 14 which is roughly a year old. Fair enough, you&#x27;ve stated &quot;next generation&quot;. So I updated to version 21 and it worked.<p>The thing is, it was broken in Firefox 14, no error message or browser detection or feature detection, just a broken game. It&#x27;s still a rough experience these HTML games compatibility-wise. I remember detecting older versions of Flash 10 years ago for games I was making then, and warning users they needed to upgrade. I wouldn&#x27;t have been allowed to deliver a Flash movie that broke on earlier versions.<p>Needing to create an account to save progress shouldn&#x27;t be needed what with offline storage, or even just a cookie to save where I&#x27;m up to.<p>The social media vibe is slightly overdone, I didn&#x27;t expect persuasive sign-up prompting just to play. But there it is.<p>7 &#x2F; 10

HTML 5 game it is. It asks to download and install some exe on my machine, though.
