Dungeon Drawing in Phaser using Tilemap

Introduction to Phaser

The Dungeon Generator creates perfecrtly logical maps. You could witness the perfection in the console by using Dungeon.print(). But, really… we can’t have a game on the console right?

That’s where Phaser comes in. Phaser is an HTML5 game enigine that’s based on webGL, with a neat fallback to HTML5 Canavs. It is super lightweight and mobile platform oriented. The best part? The massive store of documentation and examples. And, there a whole load of tutorials out there that would help a noob like me figure out how things are done. This was the first Phaser tutorial I took. You should really check out the examples to see what Phaser is capable of.
