If you care for game centric libraries that use canvas, then only the following are valid choices. In my personal favorites order with random remarks: * https://github.com/kesiev/akihabara - arcade game centric * https://github.com/oberhamsi/gamejs - (my lib) port of PyGame; commonjs * https://github.com/biilly/doodle-js - scene graph * https://github.com/batiste/sprite.js - simplistic but fast sprite handling * https://github.com/fairfieldt/xcjs - coffeescript * http://easeljs.com/ -
