Code

All of the code is publically available on github. The project is written in a language called Haxe, which compiles down to javascript. The code quality is...well...it's a hackday... need I say more?

Most of the code has been written from scratch, with the exception of rendering which we use the Pixi.JS Framework.

Art

Neither of us are designers nor very good at art in general, so the entire project is designed with graphics. There isn't a single image used in the project (except some white boxes for particle effects). Instead the scenes are generated from line graphics, some terrible terrible maths and some neat looking shaders.
