This site started as an HTML rapid-prototyping tool back in the early 2000's.
It's got some web development tools, a couple of action-packed JavaScript/HTML games, and some wiggly demos.

If you're looking for
loopwood.com or
Fracas 3, it's moved to
photonpotato.com.

Here's a hella old eval3
gnomes demo. These gem-coveting dungeon dwellers were going to be the enemies in Fracas II.

Here's another little vorp level:
surf's up and zombies to go
It's already pretty hard. But to make it insane-o challenging, try it without your tractor beam - use yourself as bait to draw the zombies into the grip-switches.

Now the Vorp editor is integrated into the game, and there's sharing by URL.

Vorp has three new levels, with zombies and turrets!

Now
eval3 is using a new URL compressor,
plex.squisher,
that is always on.
All old URLs should still work. But the new ones should survive linkification better,
because they only use URL-friendly base64 characters. So they're more likely to work if you paste them into Gmail,
or forum markdown.
Here's a sample URL that animates wiggly tree tentacles on a canvas:
cthulhu.
The new compressor turns the form fields into a JSON string,
percent-encodes all but the most vanilla characters,
does static-dictionary substitution to make some common strings shorter (like "document" and "function"),
then uses Lempel-Ziv to compress repeated strings,
and finally encodes everything in linkifier-friendly base64.
Aaaand in Vorp, it should be easier to make small movements with the little pink square that is you -
better for lining up throws, or getting onto a beam sensor.

I've been working on
Vorp!
Now there are ten lesson levels, and a couple new challenging levels.
2011-01-23
Added a new game,
Vorp, to the nav bar.
2010-06-26
Refactored the whole site!
For example, now you can go to
plexode.com/eval3
instead of
plexode.com/cgi-bin/eval3.py
All old-style URLs should get redirected to the new URLs. eval2 and eval3 URL hash fragments are preserved, even on IE.
I also got rid of some cruft, and added some stuff.

Insta-html and eval have a beautiful baby and it is
eval3.
It is full of wonders. Here is a snake I made with it:
A snake.

Now
eval2 saves and loads content using the href
fragment, so you can save a JS program as a bookmark, or send one to a friend.
