I agree, that SVG is not that common. In fact, someone else suggested to use an engine like Phaser or Pixi in his review (twitch link).
I decided against that. I want to explore, what it takes to make a game accessible. Inspired by https://youtu.be/PWJhxsZb81U
That requires to take some losses as I explore the boundaries. SVG has the advantage to provide a DOM. Using title and desc elements would allow me to provide text alternatives to the visuals.
Oh, and I contributed to https://github.com/dylanbeattie/ipuzzler a few weeks before the jam started. Reading to the iPuz spec made me go with my own format for this jam. But I could imagine being shared in that format.
The attitude to share code (ideally documented / commented) is something I learned to value from end3r’s js13kgames competition (hopefully again later this year).
See you there?
