Big LittleJS news! We have a game jam announcement, new logo, and some community contributions including an insane rendering speed boost.

First of all I’d like to invite you all to participate in the first LittleJS game jam! It will be an exciting opportunity to unleash your creativity and develop games using the free and open source LittleJS game engine. There has already been great support with 56 people joined with 4 months before it starts. I can’t wait to see what you all make. 😅👍

We have been working on a new logo since last year and just recently unveiled it. The old logo was a simple pixel art train engine I made as an icon for the website. A good starting point, but felt a bit primitive and it was time for a redesign.

The creative process has involved gathering input from the community on discord and a forum post on GitHub. I even used AI to help prototype a few ideas. After many iterations and rounds of feedback, we have arrived at a result that I’m super happy with. One of the coolest things is that it is actually drawn using JavaScript!
