Abstract
The enchant.js framework was developed at the Ubiquitous Entertainment Inc. (UEI) Akihabara Research Center in Tokyo and was originally released in April, 2011. It has enjoyed considerable popularity in Japan ever since and has a growing base of fans from other countries. The enchant.js framework is an HTML5 and JavaScript-based game engine and stand-alone code library that enables you to develop applications that can run on a PC or Mac or on iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. Although game applications created using the engine can be run on many different kinds of devices, most have been created and optimized for smartphone use.
