Web-based JKDF2 and MotS

5 Upvotes

So last Friday was the 29th Birthday of Jedi Knight and JK member Tristamus started working on a Web-based version of JKDF2 that you can play through your browser. It does require game files to launch.

Give it a try and let us know if you run into any bugs. MotS is still being worked on somewhat we did run into some issues with it but JK is nearly complete
