Cut the Rope: Brought to You by HTML5 & CSS3

Posted By Eric Dye on January 26, 2012

Cut the Rope is a game app for your iPhone, iPad and Android phone or tablet, but you can also play it online — for free!

It falls under the class of Angry Birds with its cute cartoon look and feel, and centers around motion physics and cause-and-effect. Like other casual games of this nature, it’s stupidly addicting.

The coolest aspect of Cute the Rope is the development, since the web browser version of the game is an authentic translation of the mobile apps, showcasing some of the best of what HTML5 has to offer: canvas-rendered graphics, browser-based audio and video, CSS3 styling and the personality of WOFF fonts.

About Us:

We've been insanely-interested in exploring how the Church, ministries, and non-profits use technology to effectively fulfill their mission to the world.

With a small blog that started in September of 2008 we grew faster than we had ever dared to dream expanding into a network of blogs that reached more than a quarter million people every single month.

In May of 2011 we re-focused our efforts bringing all of the content back into one solidified brand - a "digital magazine" of resources that still serve the same industries and that still has the same curious heartbeat that started this movement.

Join us - there is still much to be explored.
