Re: [elm-discuss] Looking for feadback on API design for my upcoming 2d game library

Yes, but that was some time ago. I used it for a small project.

My goals for this project are absolutely not to create something like 
pixijs, although I wouldn't be against it turning into something like this 
over time.
Right now the goal is much simpler:
Enable users to create a simple 2d game based on webgl without knowing 
about webgl and glsl. At the same time allow advanced user to use glsl when 
they need to.

Yes, I thought about this. However I think it should be a separate library 
that you can use if you so choose.
That's also the reason why I chose Game.* as a namespace. E.g. you could 
create a small resource manager that lives under Game.Resources.

@John Mayer, I'd be very interested about your feedback as the author of 
the webgl library, when you find the time.

This looks nice. I'm in a code slump with my project but I'll give it a try
when I pick it back up.
