If you like TD games, I think it could keep you very busy over the holiday break. It was written by Grant Skinner at GSkinner.com. Grant is a Flash developer and this was his for project for HTML5. That's right, the whole game runs in HTML5, CSS3, and Javascript - no plugins. Very cool! Follow his blog for more details on how. To play, you just need an HTML5 browser that can rock like crazy with the GPU. Might I suggest IE9? In fact, IE9 runs so fast there is a checkbox under the game to turn off effects for some other HTML5 browsers I won't name that would be kneecapped with the graphics turned up. Give it a try now at PiratesLoveDaisies.com.

Does till have some bugs though. The game got stuck and when I wanted to push pauze it worked, but then wanting to unpauze... It just pauzed again and the game got more and more dark, untill the middle part was black.

This makes me wonder why would a person (no names here) spend soo much time playing games. Just a thought :)

HTML5 still feels like a kludge you have to beat your application into when there are far better frameworks available.

Cool great demo, but I would make it in Silverlight and be able to run it on Phone and Desktop as well!
