I wanted to recreate the game Flappy Bird, as it was discontinued in 2014… In this game the sprite (which is shaped as one of the original flappy birds) is controlled by pressing the spacebar on any given key board. The goal of the game is to get the bird to travel through as many pipes as possible without hitting any obstacles (or going out of bounds)...
The biggest challenge in making this game was getting the series up pipes to randomly spawn in on coordinates that made the game hard whilst simultaneously being entertaining…
Game Unfinished Component
One thing I would have liked to incorporate would have been a leaderboard that tracks players scores
My code and app could have used more comments
Game Next Steps
I would like to add a second (maybe third) level … and possible change the graphics of the game
Making the cat animations work properly was challenging.
Game Unfinished Component
If I had more time I would have made a “win” screen once all the fish were destroyed, but it still works because there are too many fish that replicate too fast to destroy them all.
Game Next Steps
I would like to make more fish designs that aren't just different colors.
