The engine itself is purely offline but there are several community conversions.
excelenter's Haxe solution compiles into a Flash game, epoxa's gives you a server-side game, or there is an Emscripten approach for a regular downloadable Javascript game page. It' not the best on the performance or utilising the browser capabilities, though.
