Unity’s new weapon for devs: Porting games to Firefox

Mozilla has teamed up with Unity to run its games on the Web without plugins — but with an add-on.

Announced at the Game Developer’s Conference in San Francisco, the extension will ship later this year with the anticipated Unity 5.0. Powered by the Web graphics library WebGL and the JavaScript subset asm.js, the add-on update says more about game developer’s faith in Firefox than anything else.
