VK vikram k. Senior Software Engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 4/2/2021 "CreateJs, a quick and familiar api to build HTML games if you come from flash background." 3.5/5 What do you like best about Createjs? It's familiar API for flash developers. It's seamless integration with AnimateCC. It has good community base. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Createjs? It's lack of good support for webgl. There is no active development as of now. So it's difficult to convince clients to use it as game engine. There is no official support for things like spine, physics engine etc.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Createjs solving and how is that benefiting you? Mostly I use createjs for small interactive games. It's a good tool to port flash games to HTML since we can generate createjs code from animatecc, it reduces time to recreate the graphics in createjs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software Engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 11/17/2020 "Good at what it does, but needs improvement" 3.5/5 What do you like best about Createjs? Using CreateJS with published Js files from Flash helped speed up content creation. That integration was the main reason I used CreateJS Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Createjs? There is a steep learning curve for anything above a basic implementation, and there were a few unintended behaviors that required extra work. Specifically the ticker wasn't always very precise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Createjs: Look through example code and write a very small app using audio and video. You'll want to know if you can understand the docs well and if the code itself is easy enough to use. It's not for everybody but if you can understand it well it will be a good tool, if you dont understand it you can shoot yourself in the foot with weird bugs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Createjs solving and how is that benefiting you? Allowing designers to create animated or interactive courses in Flash without having to worry about the code. As a developer with a custom course player using a lot of CreateJS I was able to support over 3-4 designers continuously making courses. This saved time and was reliable enough to focus on features instead of getting caught up in simple things like audio/video loading. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SDE Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 11/7/2020 "CreateJs : The best Library for creating dynamic and interactive websites." 4/5 What do you like best about Createjs? CreateJS is divided into multiple modules. These modules cover almost everything from things like loading large resources from the server to rendering, animations, and sounds. The Best thing about this is that each of these modules comes with their own complete documentation which makes it very simple to work with. Also, these libraries are really lightweight which makes it perfect for web applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Createjs? Even after wonderful documentation. The learning curve of the library is pretty high. Users should have a basic knowledge of how images/sprites are rendered and how tweens work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Createjs: This is a really powerful library for creating a graphics-heavy website. But if you are using it for creating a game then you should have a basic knowledge of the video game development process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Createjs solving and how is that benefiting you? I have previously used CreateJS to develop a dynamic gamified website. This website was more of an interactive registration portal for a college fest. Link: https://sarthakz9.github.io/SpaceBot/html/index.html CreateJS really helped us in playing with the Canvas element of the HTML5. It was very easy to work with sprites animation. It also supports text rendering which was also handy in creating UI elements for the game. TweenJS was really effective in creating complex animations. The library includes The concept of chaining simple animations together. which were really helpful in creating loopable animations for a lot of things in a few lines of code. PreloadJS eased a lot in caching and downloading the large resources of the project. This helped a lot in avoiding a lot of unneeded boilerplate code. It really a powerful library and almost worked as a mini Game-Engine in our use-case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Great Tool to create HTML5 games" 4/5 What do you like best about Createjs? CreateJS itself have PreLoadJS,TweenJs, EaselJS,SoundJS so you can render loaders and audio easily and they are so easy to integrate. There are many examples available as well from its own website..from basics to advanced visual effects.I have personally learned so much from that and these examples really come handy . its very simple and easy to use especially for a beginner in a effective manner. CreateJs Community is also very responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Createjs? Using certain filters such as blurFilters etc in developing mobile games... gives performance-related issues on devices... but that does not deter its other benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Createjs: Create JS is actively developed, If you have never used it before its definitely worth a try. It is really easy to use and is really powerful library in terms of providing visual effects using timelines. Also, the team seems responsive to issues raised by the community members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Createjs solving and how is that benefiting you? I have developed many HTMl5 games using CreateJs suite. From a single tool, we have unified all the libraries. Now, in a lesser time we can build things which would take more time before the existence of such library. we do not need to use a separate library for sound, animations. It is also combined with TweenJs and SoundJS as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
