Crosspost from the game thread: here's a browser based game in the style of Scorched Earth I'm working on using javascript/html5. It seems to work best in chrome. Any comments or suggestions are welcome!

Very nice, quick bug report though. Ubuntu Firefox the emp (I guess anyway, it was an AI which used it) causes massive slowdown on my system.

Damnit, a friend of mine reported the same issue with Firefox with their system and yet it works just fine on mine, which makes it a pain to debug :(
Maybe I can think of a more efficient way to achieve the same effect. I just wish I could reproduce it on my system.
If anyone else is using Ubuntu maybe they can confirm it happens, then you could set up a vm. I'll see how chrome handles it on the same system tomorrow and report back.

Thanks, not sure what you mean here though. Do you just want the option to repeat the last shot? Usually I want to make a slight adjustment to the last shot.
I found myself wanting this too. Basically at the end of a round often its me and an AI both with shields and only small missiles, so we're just pinging each other, I have exactly the correct trajectory/strength and just want to repeat last shot a few times to finish him off.

The game is cool I spent way to much time playing with it.

This guy was using Windows so I don't know what the deal is there.

Well it works fine in Chrome, so its not a hardware issue at least.

I made a thing! Its a two player draughts game, 8x8 board, no AI.

Mostly to test out node-webkits packaging, but also to actually complete a personal project before losing interest for once.

If anyone wants to have a play, here's some links:
mac osx
windows

And for linux you can dl the terrible source (also for not linux, but I only tested the init and build scripts on linux).
