Flash Vs HTML5 is a simple game of pong using two "competing" web technologies, created by Code Computerlove (a Manchester based agency).
The Flash Vs HTML5 debate has caused much discussion over the recent months and it certainly got us thinking here at Code. We believe the two technologies are not in competition and each have their purpose, but thought it might be amusing to actually put them in direct competition.
The HTML5 side uses Canvas and JavaScript (cue cries of "not "HTML5"") and a favourite of mine, the Flash ExternalInterface. It also makes use of localStorage to remember scores, which is a bit overkill but a nice demonstration.
