Roller - jQuery based game

duminică, 10 mai, 2009   JavaScript   jQuery, Open source   3

From time to time I feel the need to break out the everyday routine. Last night I was surfing the web with no direction and I found this tutorial and I said: "This can be done in JavaScript too.". I start to plan this a little bit and after 4 hours with a little jQuery, OOP and Photoshop it end up to be a working game.

The goal in the game is to roll a ball following a path till the end. Each tile you roll on has different properties affecting the way you can control the ball or the way the ball moves.

  • regular - you have enough control to keep the ball on it
  • ice - has a slippery surface and you have very little power to steer the ball
  • glass - once you roll on it it breaks away
  • reverse - the controls are reversed
  • sand - high friction tile
  • windy - the wind blows your ball in a certain direction and you have to compensate
  • checkpoint - once you roll on this tile you do not have to go to the level's start if you roll out

Now all I have to do is to design some more levels. Now go and enjoy it Roller or download it.
