Javascript Game Engines Comparison

Performance comparison of Javascript rendering/game engines: Three.js, Pixi.js, Phaser, Babylon.js, Two.js, Hilo, melonJS, Kaboom, Kontra, Canvas API and DOM!

This is a sprite-based performance test that compares a set of Javascript-based rendering/game engines that are currently maintained. The test includes rendering a set of graphics/shapes and sprites.

It should be noted that being faster is not always preferable. Aside from performance, one must consider the features a library provides such as asset loading, sprite animation, input, etc. to easily create various games. In addition to this, some rendering/game engines may have a steeper learning curve than others, making them less desirable to use. It is important to consider user experience as well as speed in game development.
