Phaser 1.1.6
============

Phaser is a fast, free and fun open source game framework for making desktop and mobile browser HTML5 games. It uses [Pixi.js](https://github.com/GoodBoyDigital/pixi.js/) internally for fast 2D Canvas and WebGL rendering.

Welcome to Phaser
-----------------

This 1.1.5 release is released to address issues in 1.1.4 that we didn't want you to have to wait too long for.
1.1.6 is the final point release before Phaser 2.0 is released this March.

As you may know we had planned to release 1.1.4 at the end of 2013. For various reasons this didn't quite happen, but we're happy to announce it's finally out! There have been some dramatic changes internally, and if you make use of either the physics systems or tilemaps then you are going to need to update your code. Hopefully only a little bit, but there have been a number of core API changes which we detail below. There are also a host of new features, the headliners being:

Help Test 1.2
Help Test 2.0
-------------

You'll notice a new [1.2 branch](https://github.com/photonstorm/phaser/tree/1.2) on github. Please help test out 1.2 as much as you can. It features the brand new Pixi 1.5 internally as well as nearly complete integration with p2.js for all physics (dropping ArcadePhysics entirely). New versions are being pushed several times a day, so be sure to update and pull often. Don't expect to just run old games right under it yet, but please do check out the new tests, experiment and poke it around as much as you can - thank you! There is a new Phaser 1.2 section of our forum set-up for talking, and our new [Phaser Labs](http://labs.phaser.io) site as well.
Originally we were going to release Phaser 1.2 next, however after working solidly on it for a while we realise it's such a large and API breaking/changing update that we need to ste-up the version to 2.0 to avoid any possible confusion. Progress has been rapid and we'd love for you to help test it. You'll notice a new [1.2 branch](https://github.com/photonstorm/phaser/tree/1.2) on github - we're going to keep the branch name as 1.2 as we're nearly at the end of development now, but please understand this is what will actually be the 2.0 release.

Please help test out 1.2/2.0 as much as you can. It features the brand new Pixi 1.5 internally as well as nearly complete integration with p2.js for all physics (dropping ArcadePhysics entirely).

Here is what's on our road map for the coming months:

Version 1.2 ("Shienar")
March 2014 will see Phaser 2.0 ("Aes Sedai") Released. The new features and fixes already implemented are vast, and include:

* Update to Pixi 1.5 - this newly released build has lots of internal changes and new features we want to take advantage of.
* Integration of the p2.js physics system and removal of the old ArcadePhysics. Full body dynamics are go!
* Better CocoonJS packaging features (screencanvas, audio checks, etc)
* Fixed width bitmap font support, plus enhanced Bitmap font rendering.
* Significantly optimised render and update loops. We're seeing significant fps improvements across the board.
* Literally hundreds of bug fixes across all core classes.

Version 1.3 ("Tarabon")
Beyond version 2.0 here are some of the features planned for the future:

Version 2.1 ("Shienar")

* Enhance the State Management, so you can perform non-destructive State swaps and persistence.
* Dedicated CocoonJS packaging features (screencanvas, etc)
* A more advanced Particle system, one that can render to a single canvas (rather than spawn hundreds of Sprites), more advanced effects, etc.
* Ability to control DOM elements from the core game and layer them into the game.
* Touch Gestures.
* Support for parallel asset loading.
* Fixed width bitmap font support, plus enhanced Bitmap font rendering.

Version 2.0 ("Aes Sedai")
Version 2.2 ("Tarabon")

* Integrate p2.js physics system completely.
* Comprehensive testing across Firefox OS devices, CocoonJS and Ejecta.
* Integration with third party services like Google Play Game Services and Amazon JS SDK.
* Flash CC HTML5 export integration.
* Massively enhance the audio side of Phaser. Although it does what it does well, it could do with taking more advantage of Web Audio - echo effects, positional sound, etc.

Beyond version 2.0
Beyond version 2.2

* Test out packaging with Node-webkit.
* Game parameters stored in Google Docs.
* Look at HiDPI Canvas settings.
* Multiple Camera support.
* DragonBones support.
