Too cool! HTML5 Google Chrome port of the critically acclaimed Xbox 360, PS3, and PC indie game Bastion. No Flash used! It looks and plays just like the original version. Mac users can also play (there is no Mac specific version).
The demo is free to play and you can unlock the full game for $14.99

Arcade Fire: The Wilderness Downtown
A crazy HTML5 interactive music video powered by Google. I’d expect it’s also best viewed with Google Chrome.
I’ve switched to HTML5 YouTube Embed
Flash sucks and I want it to be easy for any iOS device to view videos on my blog.

Free HTML5 painting app by deviantART: Muro
This is crazy cool looking! It’s a free online app you use in your browser. It even works on iPad, and to an extent on iPhone (can’t zoom). You can also purchase access to more advanced brushes and tools, but all the important basics are free.
It supports layers, opacity, filters, and even WACOM tablets. Beta testers have already done some impressive work with it and I’m sure there’ll be a huge rush of new paintings now that it’s public.
I’ll have to play around with it and see if I can do anything cool. The only downside I see is that the canvas is limited to 900px × 446px.

Some really cool stuff. Make sure you are using a current version Safari or Chrome to view the above link. I’m especially interested in the CSS; just skip over stuff you don’t understand, there’s plenty of cool stuff to see.
HTML5 is my Arcade.
Who needs Flash?
