Ken's Street Fighter II with animated sprites (opens in new tab)

I've never been an HN naysayer before...

But this is just a trivial collection of CSS sprites and JavaScript. It isn't really CSS3 at all, or any different from what's been done a million times before. It just uses CSS animation instead of JavaScript for cycling through sprites, that's it.

Incredible! Here is more info as to how the author did this: http://front-back.com/2013/01/animate-png-sprites-with-css3-...

My favorite part: If you execute a hadouken followed by a shoryuken or jump, the fireball moves up and down as Ken goes up and down.

That would make for some awesome shenanigans if Ken had an opponent.

edit: Kneel+walk also provide some interesting turtling possibilities too.

Finally, an honest no-js message.

I don't know if everyone but me knew about Codepen before but I've found more impressive the fact that I can change any aspect of the work instantly than the animation itself.

Doesn't work on Chrome Version 24.0.1312.57 m (Win 7)

EDIT: Works now, found out the pngs were being blocked on my network...

Now I can finally do all the special moves whenever I want! FINALLY!

Not just CSS3, but still very fun.

CVC seems broken. It returns true when I entered the wrong number.
