  Nice! The example code looks simple enough to understand relatively quickly, and it does seem to work (good on you to have working demos to show). May play with this some time soon. You should put some contact info in the README. e.g. IRC channel, or email (if you dare), or a pointer to github issues page.

  Author here. Make sure to check out the examples and docs! This is alpha-stage software, but there is roughly enough functionality to build a complete modern video game.

  Please ask me any questions you have! Feedback is appreciated.

  Have you considered using Pixi.js instead of pure canvas? Pixi.js uses WebGL with a canvas fallback and performance is much better: http://www.pixijs.com/

  That name sounds really confusing. Looks neat otherwise.
