Your github repo no longer exists but this looks interesting.

#23I’ve loved webcomics since the early days. There’s huge amounts of truly amazing work. You can find incredible horror stories like The Sword Interval or Stand Still Stay Silent (two of my absolute favorites). There’s long-running diaries like Real Life Comics or serials like PVP. Practically everyone knows Penny Arcade, but have you heard of Three Panel Soul? The rabbit hole runs deep. However, the tech behind it has…
Wow, SSSS is so amazing.
It does feel like there is a great opportunity to increase the dynamism of that webcomic, a space between a full fledged video and something where the text and images can do a bit of a actually dancing (some kind of animation or transition). And, this web comic requires a lot of scrolling and mousing, which I feel like could be improved. But, the overall work is so great I'm sure that occupied the author's attention more than little details like what else they could add. The story is so good and the rest is just minutiae.

I’m glad you like SSSS! I’ve always loved it and was sad when it ended. Absolutely amazing art and story.

I just follow 2 (two) webcomics these days: Order Of The Stick (I guess everyone knows that one?) and Unsounded, which is pretty obscure I guess, but the author is incredibly dedicated to her project and the worldbuilding and charactes are really great. I also used to follow Erfworld before it sadly went on a permanent hiatus 3 years ago...

The best webcomic hosting site I'm aware of is ComicFury. Its not very well known, probably because its layout is very early 2000s, but it's loaded with features, and allows custom layouts like Tumblr.

#28The music didn't sync up well for me (it slowed down and lagged) There were also a few cases of overlapping images on the text Brave on Linux at 1920x1080 with a latest-gen CPU and GPU in case that helps. I use arch btw
After some research it seems there’s a web audio api in JavaScript that lets you access a much more precise timer. Should be fixed when I implement that soon.

#29I like the idea of coupling sound to the page/slide. Would be even better if the audio was generated so that the transition was seamless.
