Side note for hn devs, this url is in Chinese characters but appears as garbage in hn site.

I also believe that a something better than the status quo is possible. Perhaps render the URL correctly then display the obfuscated URL beside it in between parentheses.

International domain names will never be used if browser and website support remains as horrible as it currently is.

I think I played this IRL. It would be nice to be able to use the keyboard to play, clicking the screen with the mouse is too difficult (I don't have a touchscreen.)

I was just reminded these ever existed 9 hours ago by Crash Course Games: https://youtu.be/ZEwbHWspFWY?t=2m35s

The game logic is held within the CSS, which has a rather beautiful obfuscation/formatting applied: http://kong.xn--8ws00zhy3a.com/kong.css

Check out what happens if you disable the CSS. In Firefox: Tools / Web Developer / Style Editor / Toggle style sheet visibility (the little eye icon).

Huh? Safari is the only browser I ever use. Apart from these super-experimental sites that occasionally show up on HN, the entire web works just fine.

Any idea how to do it?

I want to know this too. Must be some grunt/gulp script.

Super experimental means features that Chrome, Firefox AND Edge supported for years?

I'm not a web developer, I don't know the details, I only know that when I'm browsing normal regular web pages, Safari is awesome and seems to use far less power than any other browser.

At first I thought it didn't work for me neither in Firefox 49.0 nor Chromium 51.0 on Fedora 23.

One has to first press one of the "GAME A" or "GAME B" buttons, and then press the "JUMP" button.
