Mozilla's HTML5 Game On finalists now online; go play, go vote!

Mozilla's HTML5 Game On finalists now online; go play, go vote!
Mozilla Labs' jury has selected the 35 finalists of its inaugural Game On 2010 competition. The games all use a combination of Open Web technologies -- HTML5, JavaScript, CSS, SVG and WebGL -- and while they have been designed for playing in Firefox 4, they should mostly work in Chrome, Opera and Internet Explorer 9, too.

While the grand prizes will be handed out by a panel of expert judges, you're encouraged to play some games and vote for Community Choice award. You have until February 1 to vote, and all of the prizes will be awarded on February 3.

If you don't want to play all 35 (and admittedly, some of them are not all that great), take a look at Favimon (Lee loves this one) and TankWorld (check the sound effects!) Grave Danger is also strangely enjoyable -- perhaps it's the voodoo skulls, or something...

Finally, if 35 games weren't enough, you can also take a look at all of the entrants. Not a bad haul for emerging, beta technologies. Here's to Game On 2011!

[I actually tried some of these on the Android browser, and while they didn't work very well... they did work.]
