One-Page Arcade

The arcade is a collection of classic games, each rebuilt as one self-contained HTML file: HTML5 Canvas rendering, inline CSS (CRT scanlines, HUD), vanilla JavaScript, and procedural sound via the Web Audio API. No frameworks, no build tools, no external assets — open the file and play.

Conventions

Every game follows the same structure (see the arcade’s ARCHITECTURE.md in the source repo):

• resize() — canvas sizing
• ensureAudio() / playSound() — procedural oscillators + noise buffers
• initGame() / update() / draw() / loop() — the standard game loop
• localStorage — hi-score persistence

Current roster

The Original titles are real-time 3D (Three.js inlined in the file); Battlezone is a 3D polygon rebuild of the 1990 Atari arcade classic and Elite is a 3D space-combat rebuild of the 1984 Firelight/Lucid Dreams classic; the rest are 2D canvas builds. More games will be added over time — the index is data-driven, so a new game is one HTML file plus one JSON entry.
