Sinuous - An attempt to recreate Sinuous

This project was done by Jason Hanna and Lane Winham as our final paired project at Turing School. When the project was assigned, we had a few months of Ruby, Ruby on Rails, and one week of JavaScript experience. The goal of the project was to either create an original or recreate a 2d style game in HTML5 canvas.

Time to play:

• Original Sinuous

• Our Sinuous

Directions:

• Avoid red enemy dots and the grey boarder
• Collide with green dots for +1 life
• Place your cursor so that it is hidden inside the boarder
• Use your trackpad or mouse to move the blue player ball
• Click within the browser window so that it is your active page
• Slap the SPACEBAR to begin.

Technical Challenges:

• Drawing and updating the player and enemies at the same time
• Creating a function to create a given number of enemies with different attributes
• Collision detection of the enemy, powerup, and canvas boarder
• Start and end screens
• replay functionality
