pc + mac games in browser?

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/pc + mac games in browser?

Hi, a client of mine is asking for games to run *inside* a web browser, thing is they should be able to be ran in pc and mac (game can be 2d or 3d).

Other than coding in javascript / flash / shockwave, is there a way of doing so?

I'm aware of osa kit, seems to work on the pc side, but not in Mac.

Thank you

I believe Safari is using NSAPI for plugins, so that's good news on the Mac front. As far as creating the plugin is concerned, that could actually be pretty straight-forward.

I'm pretty sure Indiepath's igLoader has Mac support :)

how about using java web loader and jMonkeyRender 3D engine and just use java when you want to use the webhype :)

Shall I link to the TGE ActiveX - Firefox plugin kit as well? Mentioning multiple hundred dollar licenses might not really be the thing of interest ...

Thank you for your answers, seems unity3d might be the one. According to website, not even igloader works for mac.

Dreamora, thanks for the pointer for jMonkeyRender, wasn't aware of it, might be an option too.

Best regards.

If you just want to play around and quality as well as downloadsizes are no issues (which i somehow doubt if it's client work) then you can use http://www.jmonkeyengine.com/ . If you need a professional solution then i would check out Unity instead.
