Looks very interesting :D

I'm currently doing the same with Baldur's Gate engine. I am using Mootools, I want to study your code more to see if Dojo would be better (Mootools introduces overhead with constructors)

Basic demo here: http://lumakey.net/labs/battleground/demo1/

For multiplayer I'm making tests with Firebase...

Also I'm looking into WebGL for some animations (explosions etc) probably it could help performance in your case as well.

Very glad to hear that; for dojo, functions in dojo/_base/lang and require.js attract me; and can you share your github URL then i can also watch your project? PS: Are you afraid if game company accuse you pirating their assets? Their words make me nervous

I have not yet published the code publicly but I plan on doing it soon.

With Mootools I like the classical inheritance style. Something else that looks interesting is TypeScript, when you reach ~10k lines of codes pure javascript gets really tricky to debug/refactor.

Yes I am worried about company reaction, I wouldnt publish game assets on a public repo. What I am considering is publishing my game engine along with the scripts I use to process the game resources into suitable web formats.
