mk.js is a browser-based fighting game built with HTML5 canvas and JavaScript, inspired by Mortal Kombat. It supports single-player, local two-player, and network multiplayer modes via a Node.js server or WebRTC data channels.

Use cases

• play a fighting game in the browser
• play a two-player fighting game on one keyboard
• play a fighting game against a friend over the network
• learn how to build a canvas-based game in JavaScript
• demo WebRTC data channels with a game
• embed a configurable fighting game in a web page

When to choose

• you want a lightweight, open-source browser fighting game
• you need a simple example of HTML5 canvas game development
• you want to experiment with networked multiplayer games in JavaScript

When to avoid

• you need a production-quality or polished commercial game
• you require an actively maintained project with a defined license file
• you need a game engine or framework rather than a complete game
