A browser game is a computer game that is played using a web browser via the Internet. It is usually written in a browser language, such as JavaScript, HTML5 or PHP.
In such games, additional languages can be used for internal processing or browser plug-ins, such as Flash, Java and Silverlight. WebGL can use hardware acceleration graphics. A browser game is a game that is played exclusively in a web browser, and not on the gaming console or other device. This means that you can play with different types of computers, and often many different players can participate in it. Some browser games are simple puzzles, but some can be quite detailed and included entire worlds. Therefore, it is best to consider this type of games as a way to access the game, and not as a description of the game itself.
Browser games are less demanding of the schedule and, therefore, have lower system requirements, as they are designed to play on a wider range of systems and devices. Today thousands of browser games are available, including new games and classic games converted to browser. PAC-MAN is an example of a classic game that is now available in the form of a browser game. Runescape is a popular browser MMORPG written on Java.
Usually access to the browser game is carried out through a computer that has access to the Internet, although in order to play the game, the computer must have certain functions. The game starts in the browser, that is, the user does not download the game to his desk and does not play it on a special playing device. The player plays the game in the same type of browser that displays websites, because the game is on the website.
There are several different types of games in which you can play in the browser. The main browser game may include only one player and does not require high time. On the other hand, a more complex browser game may include a meeting with friends at a certain time on the Internet and passing quests or missions. It is important to understand that there are many different multiplayer games in which they do not play through the browser. Multiplayer games and browser games are not synonyms.
This type of games is almost completely dependent on which activities can be performed online. Progress Online technology directly affects the possible progress in the game. Many browser games that have existed for a long time have undergone significant changes in design, sometimes so significant as the transition from two-dimensional design to three-dimensional. It is logical that with the development of the Internet, browser games will develop.
The advantages of the browser game compared to the game to which you want to play in another way depend on the user. Many games of this type are free or supported by advertising, especially if they are single-user. Other browser games are supported by the subscription, which some people do not like. On the other hand, many people already have a computer with an Internet browser, so the game in the game thus means that a person does not need to invest in the game system. In each case, the arguments for and against browser games can be brought.
