Game Programming in Javascript?! Yes, actually.
JSGame fuses the high performance V8 Javascript engine used in Google's Chrome web browser, with OpenGL, OpenAL and other useful game programming utilities.
Glued together in a multi-platform-capable C++ app, JSGame can run on just about anything that supports OpenGL/ES and is quite speedy too. Most importantly however; Javascript is a fully asynchronous language, so you don't have to wait for your frame render to complete to handle the next pass of game logic or vice-versa.
Though still in it's infancy, JSGame plans to eventually become a viable and competitive game engine that could even be used for professional projects. JSGame is released under a BSD-style license, so it can be used for just about anything, whether it's open source or not.
