As Seen On
GitHub’s Game Bytes Series – A Gateway to Gaming Nirvana
GitHub’s Game Bytes series stands as a testament to advancing game development technology. Serving as an open-source repository, GitHub enables game developers to collaborate, contribute, and fork codebases, resulting in revolutionary gaming concepts and products. This monthly update delineates the most recent innovations and breakthroughs in game development on GitHub.
Meet the Text Engine
One such remarkable development is the Text Engine. As a JavaScript-based text adventure game engine, it plays an integral role in weaving interactive fiction games. The genius behind Text Engine lies in its ‘disk file’ system, where room, item, and character descriptions are stored, allowing game developers to weave intricate narratives.
A standout feature of the Text Engine is its wide array of built-in commands, spawning an inventory system, object interaction, and non-player character dialogues. In addition, it flaunts customization options, providing developers with an extensive toolkit for creating engaging experiences. Gamers and developers can now access this innovative and versatile engine on project itch.io– a testament to GitHub’s commitment to creating value through meaningful partnerships.
Beyond All Reason – An Open-Source Marvel
Beyond All Reason, an open-source real-time strategy (RTS) game, is another GitHub’s Game Bytes reveal that’s making waves in the gaming community. This game, in all its grandeur, engages players with its astounding scale of gameplay and RTS elements. Retaining its roots in the open-source Spring RTS engine, it provides a versatile platform for developers to learn, adapt and innovate.
Today, it proudly hosts an active community of over 20,000 members, making it a rapidly evolving RTS playground. Beyond All Reason, with its mesmerizingly realistic physics, hundreds of units, and extensive modding capabilities, showcases the best of what open-source gaming has to offer. In the spirit of promoting accessible gaming, interested players can experience this astonishing game on the Beyond All Reason website.

Casey Jones
Up until working with Casey, we had only had poor to mediocre experiences outsourcing work to agencies. Casey & the team at CJ&CO are the exception to the rule.
Communication was beyond great, his understanding of our vision was phenomenal, and instead of needing babysitting like the other agencies we worked with, he was not only completely dependable but also gave us sound suggestions on how to get better results, at the risk of us not needing him for the initial job we requested (absolute gem).
This has truly been the first time we worked with someone outside of our business that quickly grasped our vision, and that I could completely forget about and would still deliver above expectations.
I honestly can't wait to work in many more projects together!
