Snake

Description

Simple snake game with retro aesthetic. Created with JavaScript to be used in virtual arcade machine.

Features

  • Classic Snake video game made in JavaScript

  • Retro sounds and graphics

  • Game logic to track current and high score

Technologies Used

This project is currently built in vanilla JavaScript. Currently deployed here on Netlify.

Development Process & Motivation

I wanted to create this project so I can include it in a virtual arcade machine I'm building. I found a tutorial by Kenny Yip Coding and made some modifications to make the game as close as possible to the original game including sounds and tracking high scores.

Challenges & Solutions

The biggest challenge for this project was the game logic involved. Building games in JavaScript takes a much different approach than building a typical web app because of the math and logic involved. The solution for me was to study the code and look at similar example online understand it better.

Future Plans & Improvements

I plan to update this project to add an updated version made in React, since the virtual arcade cabinet I'm making is also built in React.
