Java Games

I’m currently working on a game in JMonkey, which is an open source 3d game engine for java. It is capable of outputting applets, which could then be called via javascript, which should be able to be used with the Kongregate API.

I am curious though, as while I’ve read that Kongregate has the capability to have applets, I haven’t actually seen any. This may be because no one makes games in java, which is what I am expecting, but does anyone know if there are actually any applets hosted on Kongregate? Especially one with badges, because these instances of communicating with Kongregate are things I am expecting a bit of difficulty with.

If I can find an applet on Kong I’ll ask the developer what kinds of problems they had getting their game up, and such, but I haven’t found one yet.

Also, if there ARENT any games made in java on Kongregate, that would encourage me in a different way, as it would be cool to be a pioneer in that respect.

Tl:Dr I know you can put an applet on Kong. Has anyone done it yet?

iFrames

I know you put it in an iFrame. The question I am asking is if anyone knows of anyone who actually posted an applet on Kongregate before.

Yes

Lol Runescape is on Kong now? I played it before they had it up on Kongregate, I think.

Interesting, well, obviously it can be done then, though I see no evidence they got the statistics API working, which is one of the things I am worried about.

Thanks Draco.

I haven’t played Runescape in years.

I started playing back when there were only four servers. Stopped playing sometime around when they added stamina/exhaustion (didn’t quit because of it, just quit during that time)

Any other Java applets on Kongregate?

Yes. I just don’t know what they are.

Just browsing a few pages of the multiplayer section I found a few java games:
Spiral Knights
Steel Legions
Immortal Empire
Hopefully thats helpful.

Thanks! I see some “High Scores” Which I guess means they have the statistics API running. That was the main thing I was worried about.
